Noix de coco On la dit native d’Asie du Sud Est ou des îles du Pacifique ou encore d’Amérique tropicale ! Les Espagnols l’introduisent aux Antilles au 16 ème siècle. La taille de ce palmier au tronc flexible peut atteindre 25 m de haut. Il se termine par un panache de feuilles émergeant d’un bourgeon, ‘chou coco’ (délicieux en salade), dont la mort entraîne celle du palmier. Les fleurs jaunes donnent naissance aux noix recouvertes d’une couche fibreuse qu’on enlève à la machette. Ces noix à la coque dure contiennent un liquide sucré (eau de coco) qui se solidifie peu à peu en pulpe blanche. Famille : Arécacées (palmiers) Nom de l'arbre : Cocotier Floraison : Toute l’année Fructification : Toute l’année Dimension du fruit : De 20 à 30 cm de long Autres noms : Coco nut (anglais) ; Coco (espagnol) ; Koko, pyè koko (créole) Alignement de cocotier Fruits sur arbre Fruits
Mangifera indica The species appears to have been domesticated about 4,000 years ago.[citation needed] The species was brought to East Asia around 400-500 BCE from India; next, in the 15th century to the Philippines; and then, in the 16th century to Africa and Brazil by the Portuguese.[2] The species was described for science by Linnaeus in 1753.[3] Creole mangos from Oaxaca, México Mango is the national fruit of India, Pakistan and the Philippines. Chemical constituents[edit] Mango, moist Brazilian tropics Mangiferin (a pharmacologically active flavonoid, a natural xanthone C-glycoside) is extracted from Mango at high concentrations from the young leaves (172 g/kg), bark (107 g/kg), and from old leaves (94 g/kg).[5] Allergenic urushiols are present in the fruit peel and can trigger contact dermatitis in sensitised individuals.

Coconut Found throughout the tropic and subtropic area, the coconut is known for its great versatility as seen in the many uses of its different parts. Coconuts are part of the daily diets of many people. Coconuts are different from any other fruits because they contain a large quantity of "water" and when immature they are known as tender-nuts or jelly-nuts and may be harvested for drinking. When mature, they still contain some water and can be used as seednuts or processed to give oil from the kernel, charcoal from the hard shell and coir from the fibrous husk. The endosperm is initially in its nuclear phase suspended within the coconut water. As development continues, cellular layers of endosperm deposit along the walls of the coconut, becoming the edible coconut "flesh".[5] When dried, the coconut flesh is called copra. Description[edit] Plant[edit] Fruit[edit] A full-sized coconut weighs about 1.44 kg (3.2 lb). Roots[edit] Inflorescence[edit] Etymology[edit] Origin[edit] Domestication[edit]
