Classification of pomegranate cultivars by multivariate analysis of biochemical constituents of HPLC

Pomegranate fruits are highly diverse and may be divided into geographical groupings based on their characteristics. Genetic research has verified these categories in recent years further categorized variants geographic-genetic groupings. This study aimed to assess the biochemical contents of eight varieties pomegranate fruit seed categorization using multivariate statistical analysis. Polyphenolic chemicals key secondary metabolites pomegranate, presence influences quality sensory qualities they produce. Fruit extracts from Faqyan cultivar contained highest total phenolic content all studied cultivars. cultivars such as Shaqlawa, Halabja Sour, were shown have antioxidant activity. Gallic acid, caffeic chlorogenic p-coumaric cinnamic rutin, apigenin, rosmaric quercetin most abundant phytochemical components study. According results analysis, four major groups. The is source antioxidants beneficial elements. Finally, Sidakan Sweet Shaqlawa included a significant polyphenolic compounds.
