Can objective peel-color measurements by L*a*b* and RGB color spaces predict bioactive compounds and antioxidant properties in umbuguela fruits (Spondias sp.) across maturity?
This study demonstrates that objective peel-color measurements using L*a*b* and RGB color spaces can accurately predict bioactive compounds and antioxidant properties in umbuguela fruits across maturity stages, offering a valuable tool for breeding programs and future research on Spondias species.
