One of the exportation requirements is that pitayas, as well as any other tropical fruits, have to be free from Mexican fruit fly contamination and certified by the Food National Sanitary, Iniquity, and Quality Service. This review proved that this fruit is not attacked by the Mexican fruit fly <i>A. ludens</i> or any other Anastrepha species. The fruit fly may <span>be found in some States of Mexican Republic such as some tropical regions bu</span>t not in the semi-arid regions where cacti fruits are grown.展开更多

Guangxi is also the largest natural selenium-rich region in the country, and selenium-enriched pitaya is increasingly sought after by the general public. This paper described in detail the selection of selenium-enriched pitaya production fields, key planting techniques and core selenium enrichment techniques, with a view to providing technical guidance for the standardized production of selenium-enriched pitaya and providing technical support for improving the quality and efficiency of pitaya production in natural selenium-rich areas.展开更多
