“…In the group of phenolics, none of the components correlated with each other, indicating that those traits are genetically independent. A positive correlation was obtained between TPC and sugars (r = 0.514 -0.595), which agrees with the results of Abidi et al (2011). The only exception was the absence of the relationship between TPC and glucose content.…”

-The objective of this work was to evaluate the biochemical composition of six berry types belonging to Fragaria, Rubus, Vaccinium and Ribes genus. Fruit samples were collected in triplicate (50 fruit each) from 18 different species or cultivars of the mentioned genera, during three years (2008 to 2010). Content of individual sugars, organic acids, flavonols, and phenolic acids were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis, while total phenolics (TPC) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC), by using spectrophotometry. Principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (CA) were performed to evaluate the differences in fruit biochemical profile. The highest contents of bioactive components were found in Ribes nigrum and in Fragaria vesca, Rubus plicatus, and Vaccinium myrtillus. PCA and CA were able to partially discriminate between berries on the basis of their biochemical composition. Individual and total sugars, myricetin, ellagic acid, TPC and TAC showed the highest impact on biochemical composition of the berry fruits. CA separated blackberry, raspberry, and blueberry as isolate groups, while classification of strawberry, black and red currant in a specific group has not occurred. There is a large variability both between and within the different types of berries. Metabolite fingerprinting of the evaluated berries showed unique biochemical profiles and specific combination of bioactive compound contents.Index terms: bioactive compounds, metabolite fingerprinting, multivariate analysis, nutraceuticals, small fruits. Classificação e diversidade de pequenas frutas quanto ao perfil bioquímico e capacidade antioxidanteResumo -O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a composição bioquímica de seis espécies de pequenas frutas dos gêneros Fragaria, Rubus, Vaccinium e Ribes. As amostras das frutas foram coletadas em triplicata (com 50 frutas cada) de 18 diferentes espécies ou cultivares dos gêneros mencionados, durante três anos (2008 a 2010). Os teores individuais de açúcares, ácidos orgânicos, flavonóis e ácidos fenólicos foram determinados por cromatografia líquida de alta performance (HPLC), e os fenóis totais (FT) e a capacidade antioxidante total (CAT), por meio de espectrofotometria. As análises de componente principal (ACP) e de agrupamento hierárquico (AH) foram utilizadas para avaliar as diferenças no perfil bioquímico das frutas. Os maiores teores de compostos bioativos foram encontrados em Ribes nigrum e em Fragaria vesca, Rubus plicatus e Vaccinium myrtillus. ACP e AH foram capazes de discriminar parcialmente as frutas com base em sua composição bioquímica. Os acúcares totais e individuais, a miricetina, o ácido elágico, FT e CAT foram os parâmetros que mais impactaram na avaliação da composição bioquímica das pequenas frutas. AH fez a separação de amora-preta, framboesa e mirtilo como grupos isolados, porém a classificação do morango, da groselha-preta e da groselha-vermelha, em um grupo específico, não ocorreu. Há grande variabilidade entre e dentro d...

“…Moreover, FRUC and SUC values were showed negative significant correlations with TA (r = -0.34 and r = -0.42, at p < 0.01). In contrast to our results, Abidi et al (2011) reported a positive correlation in grapes between sugar content and total anthocyanins. This is likely because fig genotypes with green or brown fruit skin color have higher FRUC, GLUC, and SUC than do genotypes with black fruit skin color (Çalişkan & Polat, 2011).…”

“…'Bursa Siyahı' may be useful in a breeding study as a donor genotype for both high phytochemical levels and excellent fruit quality characters. Phenotypic and heritability calculations in several fruit species showed that the improvement of TA and TP is possible through selective breeding (Connor et al, 2005;Abidi et al, 2011). Therefore, the favorable fruit characters defined by 'Bursa Siyahı' should be useful in hybridization studies.…”

This study was conducted over three harvest years to determine effects of Turkish fig genotypes grown in the eastern Mediterranean region of Turkey on phytochemical and fruit quality characters. Fruit quality characters such as fruit weight, fruit width, fruit neck length, total soluble solids (TSS), pH, acidity, and TSS/acidity were examined. Total phenolics (TP), total anthocyanins (TA), antioxidant capacity (TAC), fructose (FRUC), glucose (GLUC), sucrose (SUC), and variables describing fruit skin and flesh colors (L*, a*, C, and hº) were also determined. Analysis of the data obtained from 12 fig genotypes, and three harvest years demonstrated a highly significant influence of genotype on phytochemical and fruit quality characters. 'Bursa Siyahı', which has dark black fruit skin, had the highest levels of TA (113.6 μg cy-3-rutinoside g -1 fw), TP (105.2 mg GAE/100 g fw), and TAC (10.9 mmol Fe 2+ kg -1 fw). Three yearly averages of fruit weight ranged from 22.8 g ('Sarı İncir') to 57.5 g ('Bursa Siyahı'), and ostiole width ranged from 0.9 mm ('Bursa Siyahı') to 3.7 mm (31-IN-16). These results indicate that TP (r = 0.77) contents correlated moderately to TAC, more so than with TA (r = 0.56). Both FRUC and SUC were negatively correlated with TA (r = -0.34 and r = -0.42, respectively). These data demonstrate that genotype is the main influence on the phytochemical and fruit quality characters of figs.Additional key words: antioxidant capacity; Ficus carica; fruit characters; fruit color; genotype; harvest year. ResumenEfectos del genotipo y el año de cosecha en las propiedades fitoquímicas y de calidad de la fruta de genotipos turcos de higueraEste trabajo se llevó a cabo para determinar los efectos que producen distintos genotipos turcos de higuera cultivados en la región mediterránea del este de Turquía sobre los caracteres fitoquímicos y de calidad de la fruta (como peso del fruto, ancho del fruto, longitud del cuello del fruto, sólidos solubles totales (TSS), pH, acidez y TSS/acidez). También se determinaron los fenoles totales (TP), antocianinas totales (TA), capacidad antioxidante (TAC), fructosa (FRUC), glucosa (GLUC), sacarosa (SUC) y las variables que describe la piel del fruto y colores de su carne (L*, a*, C y hº). El análisis de los datos obtenidos con 12 genotipos en tres años de cultivo demostró que hay una influencia altamente significativa del genotipo sobre los caracteres fitoquímicos y de calidad de la fruta. 'Bursa Siyahı', que tiene la piel del fruto negro oscuro, tuvo los niveles de TA más altos (113,6 μg de cianidina-3-rutinósido g -1 peso fresco), TP (105,2 mg GAE/100 g peso fresco) y TAC (10,9 mmol Fe 2+ kg -1 peso fresco). Las tres medias anuales del peso del fruto variaron entre 22,8 g ('Sarı İncir') y 57,5 g ('Bursa Siyahı'), y el ancho del ostiolo varió entre 0,9 mm ('Bursa Siyahı') y 3,7 mm (31-IN-16). Los contenidos de TP (r = 0,77) estuvieron moderadamente correlacionados con los de TAC, más que con los de TA (r = 0,56). Tanto FRUC como SUC se correlacionaron negativamente c...

“…The positive correlation between total sugar and total phenolic that was found in our study, was also reported by Abidi et al (2011) for nectarine fruit and by Pirie and Mullins (1977) for berries; that could be explained by the effect of sugars in the control of phenolic biosynthesis. As DeJong (1999) who found that, the appropriate content of sugars in or near the fruit is important for phenolic compounds production during fruit development.…”

Argania spinosa (L.) Skeels is an endemic forest tree for Morocco. The phytochemical compounds evaluation of four different morphotypes of their fruit pulps was investigated. The total content of sugar, protein and phenolic compounds were monitored during three different stages of maturation in the semi-continental (Mejji) and littoral regions (R'zwa). Total sugars, proteins, phenolics increased up to the ripe stage of all argan fruit morphotypes in the two regions. Spherical shape had higher sugar and protein content than other morphotypes. A significant difference (p \ 0.05), was demonstrated by Pearson's test, between the different morphotypes at three stages studied for all the phytochemicals compounds. Likewise, ANOVA test established that the variation of this compounds was influenced by the stage of maturation and/or region of development and/or their interaction according to fruit shape. Results from this study revealed that the increase of these parameters level take place for the most part during the last stages of maturity which synchronize with fruit softening. Furthermore, our results showed information about the richness of argan fruit pulp in carbohydrates compounds and secondary metabolites as the possibility of their contribution in nutritive forage value especially at ripe stage.
