Abstract

AbstractMyrtaceae fruit in Bogor Botanic Gardens (BBG) can be potentially developed as a unique and new fruit consumption style. The study aimed to determine the consumer preferences on Myrtaceae fruit. The method used was organoleptic testing, including a description, hedonic and rank tests. The parameters measured in this study are taste, color, flavor, texture, sound, and size of the fruit. Data analysis performed by the Kruskal-Wallis test. The results showed that most of the respondents preferred the fruit with a medium-size, tastes sour but not bitter, has attractive colors, has no pungent flavor, has soft and smooth texture, and is not crispy when it is bitten and chewed. The hedonic test showed that sample #4 and #7 have the highest average value of 4.7. The lowest average obtained in sample #3, where respondents did not like the sample. There was no significant difference of the average. The ranking of hedonic test result indicates the level of respondents' preferences in sequence are Eugenia sp. from Southeast Sulawesi, Myrtus pendula, Syzygium bankense, Syzygium aqueum, Eugenia sp. from Papua, Syzygium sp. from Seram Island, and Syzygium polycephaloides.Keywords: Bogor Botanic Gardens, consumer preference, Myrtaceae fruits, organoleptic test AbstrakBuah jambu-jambuan koleksi Kebun Raya Bogor berpotensi dijadikan buah konsumsi baru. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mengetahui dan menilai preferensi serta tingkat kesukaan masyarakat terhadap jenis buah jambu-jambuan koleksi Kebun Raya Bogor. Metode yang digunakan adalah uji organoleptik melalui metode uji deskriptif, uji kesukaan, dan uji rangking. Parameter uji meliputi rasa, warna, aroma, tekstur, suara, dan ukuran. Analisis data dilakukan secara deskriptif dan non-parametrik Kruskal-Wallis. Hasil penelitian memperlihatkan sebagian besar responden menyukai jenis buah berukuran sedang, rasa dominan masam tetapi tidak pahit, warna mencolok, aroma tidak menyengat, tekstur lunak dan halus, serta tidak renyah saat digigit. Hasil uji kesukaan menunjukan nilai rata-rata tertinggi sebesar 4,7 terdapat pada sampel #4 dan #7. Rata-rata terendah ditunjukkan pada sampel #3 sebesar 3,0, yaitu responden tidak menyukai sampel tersebut. Perbedaan rata-rata tersebut tidak signifikan. Perangkingan hasil uji kesukaan menunjukkan tingkat kesukaan responden secara berturut-turut adalah Eugenia sp. asal Sulawesi Tenggara, Myrtus pendula, Syzygium bankense, Syzygium aqueum, Eugenia sp. asal Papua, Syzygium sp, asal Pulau Seram, dan Syzygium polycephaloides.Kata kunci: buah jambu-jambuan, Kebun Raya Bogor, preferensi konsumen, uji organoleptik

Abstract

Indonesia has a strategic position that supports high biodiversity and produces a variety of medicinal plants. Antidesma is one of the plants widely known in traditional medicine. This study aims to describe the morphological characteristics of antidesma, especially in the collection at the Bogor Botanical Gardens. This study was conducted at the Center for Applied Botany Research, BRIN, West Java, from November to December 2023. This study successfully identified eight species of Antidesma, namely Antidesma montanum var. Salicinum (Ridl.) Petra. Hoffm, Antidesma montanum Blume, Antidesma minus Blume (Euph.), Antidesma neurocarpum Miq., Antidesma stipulare Blume, Antidesma bunius (L.) Spreng, Antidesma tetrandum Blume, and Antidesma tomentosum Blume. Morphologically, Antidesma is a shrub to a woody tree with a round stem and crusty bark. The leaves are single, pinnate, and have smooth edges. The fruit is a drupe (bun) that ripens purplish-black, with a combination of sour, bitter, and sweet flavors. This discovery is important for species identification, exploration of local uses, and plant breeding programs to preserve Indonesia's native diversity and potential.
