Cornelian cherry (Cornus mas) appears in a list of fruit and nut species growing in Europe considered neglected and underused economically. Although C. mas has a long-standing traditional medicinal use, only in recent years interest in products and food made from Cornelian cherries, said to have health-promoting effects, increased. This in turn raises the demand for improved planting material. In the Pielach Valley Region, Lower Austria, hundreds of centenary specimens of Cornus mas, but even a few millennial plants can still be encountered. The occurrence of these plants requested an active intervention to genetically characterize and preserve this valuable biodiversity, particularly in the light of changing environmental conditions. Efforts for the establishment of an in vitro collection of this valuable germplasm of centenary cornelian cherries yielded 193 mericlones initiated from single node explants from 41 selected plants. The selected donor plants were grouped by estimated age ranging from 10 years, > 50 years, > 100 years, > 200 years, > 400 years and 1000 years. The final goal of our efforts is to preserve these genetic resources, also checked for genetic and phytosanitary quality, for future generations and to use the superior clones for further breeding programs.

“…Cornelian cherry has been recognized as a source of ascorbic acid, anthocyanins, phenols, and flavonoid compounds (Celep, Aydın, & Yesilada, ; Pantelidis, Vasilakakis, Manganaris, & Diamantidis, ; Yilmaz, Ercisli, Zengin, Sengul, & Kafkas, ); organic acids (Wadl et al, ); and iridoids (Kucharska et al, ). These high valuable bioactive compounds contribute to its significant antioxidant capacity.…”

Cornelian cherries were used as raw material for extraction of polyphenols with high antioxidant capacity by ultrasound‐assisted extraction. Factorial design was used for preliminary experiments in order to determine the most influential factors (temperature, extraction time, ethanol concentration, ultrasonic power, and liquid–solid ratio). In next step, face‐centered central composite experimental design with response surface methodology was used for multiresponse optimization in terms of maximized yields of polyphenols (phenols, flavonoids, and anthocyanins) and antioxidant activity parameters (DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP assays). Temperature (40–80°C), extraction time (20–60 min), and ethanol concentration (20%–60%) were investigated as independent variables. Experimental results were fitted to second‐order polynomial model and analysis of variance was used to determine fitness of the model and optimal conditions. The optimal conditions for multiresponse maximization were temperature of 80°C, extraction time of 54.8 min, and ethanol concentration of 28.2% with desirability function of 0.916. Practical applications Nowadays, focus of natural products processing is aimed toward development of novel, green and economically feasible techniques and utilization of agricultural and food industry waste streams as raw material for recovery of valuable bioactive compounds. Furthermore, novel procedures should be optimized to increase yield and target compounds and minimize resource (solvent, time, and energy) consumption. This research represents investigation of underutilized fruit, that is, cornelian cherry, as a source of bioactive compounds with antioxidant activity. The paper provides information about optimization of ultrasound‐assisted extraction and utilization of dried cornelian cherries as alternative raw material for production of polyphenol‐rich extracts.

“…This fruit is very popular in human nutrition because of its flavor, juiciness, tenderness, and irresistible taste and also nutritional and medicinal benefits. Likewise, many studies have shown that cornelian cherries possess significantly high content of bioactive compounds, such as ascorbic, phenolic, and organic (mainly malonic) acids, anthocyanins, flavonols, and iridoids (Kucharska et al, ; Pawlowska, Camangi, & Braca, ; Rop, Mlcek, Kramarova, & Jurikova, ; Wadl et al, ). Due to their antioxidant activity and scavenging capacity towards reactive oxygen species (ROS), cornelian cherries also possess anticancer and antiviral properties, as well as hypolipidemic activity (Dokhanieh, Aghdam, Fard, & Hassanpour, ).…”

Cornelian cherries (Cornus mas L.) were dried by convective, vacuum, and freeze drying. The main goal was to investigate changing of physico-chemical properties of cornelian cherries during different drying techniques. Moisture content, water activity, total color change, shear force, rehydration power, total phenolic, flavonoid and anthocyanin compounds, ascorbic and organic acids, and antioxidant activity were used as the most suitable quality indicators. The lowest moisture content, water activity, total color change and the lowest content of investigated organic acids, the highest rehydration power, and also the lowest loss of ascorbic acid were obtained in vacuum dried samples. In freeze-dried samples, the lowest shear force and the highest antioxidant activity were observed. The lowest loss of phenolic, flavonoid, and anthocyanin compounds were also obtained in freeze-dried samples. Eight empirical models were used for the description of vacuum drying process, and model Midilli et al. was selected as the most suitable. Practical applicationsCornelian cherries present very popular sort of fruit with irresistible taste and specific texture.They also possess significantly high content of bioactive compounds. Drying parameters, mostly temperature, influence negatively on preservation of sensory and nutritive properties of cornelian cherries during drying. Thus, investigation of different impacts of each drying technique on physico-chemical parameters of cornelian cherries and also kinetics of cornelian cherries vacuum drying are useful both in scientific field and in industrial conditions. Based on this research, it could be seen, which drying parameters influenced the best on preservation of the most important physico-chemical properties of fresh cornelian cherries. Also, the most suitable empirical model used for the description of vacuum drying of cornelian cherries was observed.
