The national Capsicum germplasm bank of Peru at INIA holds a unique collection of more than 700 Capsicum accessions, including many landraces. These conserved accessions have never been thoroughly characterized or evaluated. Another smaller collection exists at UNALM, and CIDRA provided taxonomically characterized fruits from the Amazon region of Ucayali. Of these collections, 147 accessions have been selected to represent the biodiversity of Peruvian Capsicum annuum , Capsicum baccatum , Capsicum chinense , and Capsicum frutescens by morphological traits as well as by agronomic characteristics and regional origin. All fruits from the selected accessions have been oven-dried and ground in Peru and analyzed in Germany. Results are reported for each accession by total capsaicinoids and capsaicinoid pattern, total polyphenol content, antioxidant capacity, specific flavonoids (quercetin, kaempferol, luteolin, apigenin), fat content, vitamin C, surface color, and extractable color. A wide variability in phytochemical composition and concentration levels was found.
秘鲁 INIA 的国家辣椒种质银行拥有超过 700 份辣椒属植物的独特收藏,其中包括许多地方品种。这些保存的品种从未进行过全面的描述或评估。在 UNALM 有另一个较小的收藏,CIDRA 提供了来自乌卡亚利地区亚马逊地区的分类学特征的果实。在这些收藏中,通过形态特征以及农艺特性和地区来源,选择了 147 个品种来代表秘鲁辣椒、辣椒、辣椒和辣椒的生物多样性。从选定的品种中收获的所有果实都在秘鲁进行了烘烤和研磨,并在德国进行了分析。报告了每个品种的总辣椒素和辣椒素模式、总多酚含量、抗氧化能力、特定类黄酮(槲皮素、山奈酚、木樨草素、芹菜素)、脂肪含量、维生素 C、表面颜色和可提取颜色。发现植物化学组成和浓度水平存在广泛的可变性。
