Evaluating Provitamin A Carotenoids and Polar Metabolite Compositions during the Ripening Stages of the Agung Semeru Banana (<i>Musa paradisiaca</i> L. AAB)

<div>Polar metabolite levels, representatives of the major groups that changed during the development of the Agung Semeru plantain fruits. The amounts were based on the area of each peak which was normalized to the dry weight of each ripening stage (area/g). The ratio of the metabolite content at each ripening stage to the average metabolite content across the seven ripening stages is shown by the colour scale; the lowest ratio is in dark blue, and the highest ratio is in dark red. AAG = amino acid group; OAG = organic acid group; SSAG = sugar and sugar alcohol group.</div>
