Biochemical contents of some jujube genotypes

Veli İnanir, Adnan Nurhan Yildirim, Civan Çelik

Abstract


This study aimed to evaluate the biochemical content of 15 jujube genotypes with superior characteristics from the Denizli/Çivril region over a two-year period. Significant differences were found among the genotypes regarding their biochemical properties. Genotypes 10, 11, and 13 consistently exhibited higher total phenolic content compared to the others in both years. Additionally, genotypes 10, 2, and 11 showed higher total flavonoid content than the other genotypes. Genotypes 2, 10, and 1 demonstrated greater total antioxidant content, while genotypes 10, 2, and 11 had elevated vitamin C levels. Overall, genotypes 10, 11, and 2 consistently exhibited higher biochemical values compared to the others across both years.


Keywords
