Some Phytochemical Characteristics of Cherry Cultivars and Relations Between These Characteristics

This study was carried out to characterize some cherry cultivars (‘0900 Ziraat’, ‘Regina’, ‘Kordia’, ‘Sweetheart’, ‘Starks Gold’ and ‘Early Burlat’) in terms of phytochemical characteristics Eskisehir ecological conditions. As a result the research, vitamin C, total phenol, antioxidant activity, soluble solid content (SSC) pH were showed high variation among values determined range 2.53 (0900 Ziraat) – 4.43 (Kordia) mg 100 mL-, 186.10 260.63 (Sweetheart) L-, %37.56 %57.13 (Sweetheart), %13.17 (Starksgold) %19.26 (Regina) 3.52 - 4.00, respectively. According correlation analysis, it concluded that phenol activity increased with decreasing there positive (r = 0.92***) between activity.
