“…In the research of Tural and Koca [55] and Bijelić et al [56], the total sugar content in cornelian cherry ranged from 76.80 to 154.00 g kg −1 and 134.9 and 252.4 g kg −1 , respectively, which is in accordance with results of the conducted experiment. However, Drkenda et al [47] established lower total sugar content in cornelian cherry (62.46-85.20 g kg −1 ). The established differences in total sugar content in cornelian cherry may be a consequence of the amount of precipitation and average temperature during vegetation, as well as type of soil.…”

“…According to recent literature, there are no data on sugar and organic acid profiles of wild strawberry and bilberry fruits collected at altitudes above 1000 m. Much of the literature focuses on the analysis of basic parameters of chemical composition of this valuable fruit in B&H [42][43][44][45][46]. However, there are no studies where the content of individual sugars and organic acids is determined in relation to wild fruit, except for cornelian cherry [19,47], and these are important parameters of quality of fruit and fruit products. Therefore, this paper aims at (i) determining individual sugars and organic acids content in wild fruit species, (ii) establishing the influence of location and growing year on fruit quality parameters, (iii) recommending to producers the processing of wild fruit species according to the sugars and organic acids ratio (S/A) and (iv) analyzing the relationship of individual locations' pedoclimatic data and chemical parameters of wild fruit species.…”

The chemical variability of bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.), wild strawberry (Fragaria vesca L.), cornelian cherry (Cornus mas L.) and rosehip (Rosa canina L.) based on the content of individual and total sugars and organic acids in fruit was investigated. The fruits were picked in fully ripened condition within the period from 2014 to 2015 from different locations. The fresh fruits were analyzed with the high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technique for the purpose of identifying and quantifying the content of glucose, fructose and sucrose, as well as malic, citric, fumaric and shikimic acids. However, the content of individual sugars and organic acids differed by locations as well as by growing year within the same wild fruit species. The differences between wild fruit species as well as among different locations are presented by principal component analysis (PCA). Based on results obtained, rosehip fruits with higher sugars and organic acids ratio (S/A) are suitable for production of “pekmez” and drying, while genotypes of cornelian cherry, wild strawberry and bilberry with lower S/A are recommended for production of juices and gelatin products. The research results show that specific environmental conditions may influence significantly the content of analyzed parameters, as is the case with cornelian cherry and rosehip. Considering that the food industry is searching for new products, the wild fruit species analyzed represent a promising source of ingredients for the development of beverages and foods with functional properties as well as for supplements and nutraceuticals.

“…Thus, for selecting cornelian cherry genotypes it is necessary to pay attention to the bigger fruit mass because it is a trait that positively correlated with the fruit flesh ratio (Karadeniz 2000;Bijelić et al 2007). Drkenda et al (2014) reported fruit flesh ratio between 77.46 and 87.79 % in cornelian cherry selections in Bosnia & Herzegovina. Ercisli et al (2011), reported fruit mass and fruit flesh ratio of cornelian cherry genotypes ranged from 2.72 g ('YU-5') to 4.11 g ('YU-8') and 79.08 % ('YU-8') to 89.99 % ('YU-3') in Turkey.…”

“…Morphological markers still keep importance and widely used in particular cornelian cherries and might be appropriate for classification (Ercisli et al 2006;Yilmaz et al 2009;Bijelić et al 2010;Ercisli et al 2011;Hassanpour et al 2012;Gunduz et al 2013;Drkenda et al 2014;Sengul et al 2014). Morphological characters must be recorded for selection of parents and are also the first choice used for describing and classifying the germplazm.…”

“…V. vitis-idaea has a long history of use as an anti-hemorrhagic, antiseptic and anti-urogenital infection agent. Cornus mas is considered as the least known in Europe but this uncommon fruit is rich in vitamin C, and can be used to fight cold and flu [ 19 ]. Early studies of these wild-growing fruits focused mainly on their direct antimicrobial potential against pathogenic bacteria [ 20 ].…”

Phenolic Compounds Contained in Little-known Wild Fruits as Antiadhesive Agents Against the Beverage-Spoiling Bacteria Asaia spp.

The aim of the study was to evaluate antioxidant activity and total phenolic content of juice from three different types of fruits: elderberry (Sambucus nigra), lingonberry (Vaccinium vitis-idaea) and cornelian cherry (Cornus mas), and their action against adhesion of bacterial strains of Asaia lannensis and Asaia bogorensis isolated from spoiled soft drinks. The antioxidant profiles were determined by total antioxidant capacity (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, DPPH), and ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP). Additionally, total polyphenol content (TPC) was investigated. Chemical compositions of juices were tested using the chromatographic techniques: high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Adhesion properties of Asaia spp. cells to various abiotic materials were evaluated by luminometry, plate count and fluorescence microscopy. Antioxidant activity of fruit juices expressed as inhibitory concentration (IC50) ranged from 0.042 ± 0.001 (cornelian cherry) to 0.021 ± 0.001 g/mL (elderberry). TPC ranged from 8.02 ± 0.027 (elderberry) to 2.33 ± 0.013 mg/mL (cornelian cherry). Cyanidin-3-sambubioside-5-glucoside, cyanidin-3-glucoside, and cyanidin-3-sambubioside were detected as the major anthocyanins and caffeic, cinnamic, gallic, protocatechuic, and p-coumaric acids as the major phenolic acids. A significant linear correlation was noted between TPC and antioxidant capacity. In the presence of fruit juices a significant decrease of bacterial adhesion from 74% (elderberry) to 67% (lingonberry) was observed. The high phenolic content indicated that these compounds may contribute to the reduction of Asaia spp. adhesion.
