Ugandans Gather Under A Mango Tree In Awe Of A Mango Fruit That Allegedly ‘Turned To Human Being’ in Busoga
Residents of an unidentified community have made a shocking finding in a fruit. The community dwellers in an emerging video discovered a human-faced mango on a tree. In an Instagram video by @kingtundeednut, the stunned people clustered around the tree where the weird-looking fruit could be seen hanging as they took photos and videos of it.
Previous studies have focused on the relationship between light and fruit peel appearance, but few have studied the mechanisms driving this and its effect on fruit quality. What’s more, since sunlight comes in different colors and wavelengths, the study authors hypothesized that changes in light could affect the internal fruit contents.
Plants use sunlight for photosynthesis and to ripen their fruits. When exposed to enough light, fruit peel colors can change which increases the amount of sugar and pigment in fruits. One common example is the reddish hue tomatoes have which comes from the chlorophyll spread all their flesh. Unlike tomatoes, however, mangoes only have pigment in their thick peels and the amount of light can affect their peel color. (By the way — did you know that “mangoes” and “mangos” are both acceptable plural forms?)
