| Özet |
| Several fruit characteristics of five loquat (Eriobotrya japonica (Thunb.) Lindl.) cultivars/selections grown in Drtyol, Hatay, Turkey were investigated in 2008. The cultivars/selections included ′Baduna 5′, Gzelyurt 1, ′Hafif ukurgbek′, ′Ottaviani,′ and Type 1. The characteristics evaluated included fruit weight, width, length, seed number and weight, flesh/seed ratio, total soluble solids (TSS), pH, acidity, total phenolic (TP) content, and total antioxidant capacity (TAC), determined by the ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay. The analyses were conducted by three replicates, with 30 fruits in each replicate. The results indicated that there were significant differences among the cultivars, for all the traits tested. For example, ′Hafif ukurgbek′ and ′Ottaviani′ had smaller fruits than others, although ′Hafif ukurgbek′ had heavier seeds. The flesh/seed ratio was the highest in Type 1, while ′Hafif ukurgbek′ had the highest pH and high soluble solids. ′Baduna 5′ and ′Hafif ukurgbek′ had the highest acidity. The TP ranged from 129 (′Baduna 5′) to 578 (′Hafif ukurgbek′) mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/kg fresh fruit (fw). ′Hafif ukurgbek′ also had the highest FRAP mean (12.1 mmol Trolox Equivalent (TE)/kg fw). The results suggest that loquat cultivars have a variable range of TP content and a relatively high total antioxidant capacity, which is crucial for human health. |
