LONG TERM INVESTIGATION WITH REGARD TO THE CONSTITUENTS OF VARIOUS CRANBERRY VARIETIES (VACCINIUM MACROCARPON AIT.) |
| Author: | P. Schmid |
| Abstract:
100-fruit-weight, dry weight, pH, total acids, anthocyanins, sugars, pectins, vitamin-C, and benzoic acid in fruits of twelve cranberry varieties were examined for several years. Most typical of the varieties are the 100-fruit-weight and to a certain extent the content of anthocyanins. Considerable changes in sugar contents were found in connection with the weather during the respective growing periods. The influence of ripening upon fruit constituents was also examined. | |
