Title: Characterization of Prunus avium L. Varieties with Phenolic Compounds
Authors: G. Martelock, H. Bauer and D. Treutter
Abstract:
Phenolic compounds of 23 sweet cherry
varieties, including some local selections of the
same variety, were analyzed to check their
identity or distinctness.
The compounds were
extracted from the inner bark of one year old
shoots and separated by HPLC (High Perform
ance Liquid Chromatography). The high discriminatory potential of phenolic compounds
for variety identification could be shown.
Even
different origins of the same variety could be
identified.
The results of the polyphenol analysis
showed in many cases good accordance with
morphological classification, whereas for a few
varieties a revised nomenclature seems to be
necessary.
