AB - Botanically, avocado (Persea americana) is a berry that consists of a large central seed and pericarp, which is the sum of the skin, the edible portion, and the inner layer surrounding the seed [1]. It is a fruit of an evergreen tree that belongs to the Lauraceae family, which is typically from tropical or subtropical climates. Although the origin of this crop is Central America and Mexico, it is widely cultivated throughout the world [2,3]. In 2011, the world production of avocado was 4,434,425 tons, increasing by 10% over the previous year. The main producers are Mexico (28.5%), Chile (8.3%), Dominican Republic (6.7%), and Indonesia (6.2%), and the principal importers of this tropical fruit are the United States (8.6%), The Netherlands (2.6%), France (2.3%), and Japan (1.1%) [4]. The increased production of avocado over the last few years has been driven by a higher demand, as this fruit has distinctive and pleasant sensory attributes and is perceived by buyers as beneficial to health [5,6].
