Guava (from Spanish Guayaba; Goiaba in Portuguese) is a genus of about 100 species of tropical shrubs and small trees in the myrtle family Myrtaceae, native to the Caribbean, Central America and northern South America. Guavas are cultivated in many tropical countries for their edible fruits. Several species are grown commercially Guava fruits are picked at the mature-green stage (color change from dark- to light-green) in some countries where consumers eat them at that stage. In countries where consumers prefer ripe guava, the fruits are picked at the firm-yellow to half-ripe (softer) stage for long-distance transport or at the fully-ripe (yellow and soft) stage for local markets. Color is a good indicator of ripeness stage; size and shape may be important in some markets; freedom from defects, insects, and decay; firmness and extent of gritty texture due to the presence of stone cells (sclereids). Guavas are a preferred host for fruit flies and must be treated for disinfestation to be accepted in many countries. One of the insect control treatments is heat either as immersion in 46°C-water for 35 minutes or exposed to hot air at 48°C for 60 minutes. Another potential insect control treatment is irradiation at 0.15-0.30 kGy. The guava may be propagated by grafting or air layering but is commonly grown from seed. The disadvantage of the latter method is that seedlings do not always reproduce the characteristics of the parent. Seedlings bear fruit during the second year. South Africa, India, Hawaii & Malaysia are the major producers and exporters of Guava & Products	Review Techno Catalog Plant profile Commodity Sheet General Description Guava Images Outline of Guava Psidium guajava Review of Guava Varieties Guava Cultivars Guava Varieties Pineapple Guava Pink Guava Cattley Guava Guava Processed Forms Guava Fruit Anthracnose and the Effects Optimization of Guava Juice Fruit Juice Processing Guava tastes Guava Leaf Extract Nectar Guava Benefits Guava Fruit Diabetes High Fibre Medicinal plant Extract of Guava leaf Anticestodal efficacy Antioxidant Power Medical Herbal Clinical References Diabetes Therapy Herbal Medicine Nutritional Facts Skeletal Muscle Pest Management Control of Spiraling White Fly Pest Management Guide Fruit Flies Guava Moth Guava Fruit Fly Classification of the guava wilt fungus Rust Disease Pest Management Profile Pests Brochure Control of Spiraling Whitefly Order the CD ROM Today	Biotechnology Chemical and Organoleptic Characterization Germination and initial growth Changes in guava Macro-propagation of Guava Rooting Response Psidium guajava Research Project Exotic Guavas HAACP Standards of processed forms Growers Guide Quantitative Characteristics of Fruits Tropical Plant Database Food Additives Fruit Production - Guava Guava Guide Guava Production in Georgia Tropical Guava Post harvest technology Plantation Guava Cultivation Production of Asian Guava Guava Guava propagation South Florida Tropicals : Guava Ecology Cultivation Psidium guajava Guava Cultivation Processing Industries and Suppliers directory Fruit factory in the forest 2004 Hawaii fruit utilization and Value decline Guava Leaf Powder Extract Sand Mountain Herbs Companies selling Guava,Tropical Guava Tropilab Suppliers directory Market Strategy and Trade Leads Market for Tropical Juice in Europe Guava output rebounds after a three year decline Market Profile on Tropical Fruits in India Trade Enquiries European fruit juice and juice drinks market Free Trade Agreement Cuba’s Tropical Fruit Industry Processed & Canned Fruits
