Title: Black Chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa Michx.): A Semi-Edible Fruit with No Pests
Authors: R.W. Scott and R.M. Skirvin
Abstract:
Black chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa Michx.) has several potential uses as a cultivated horticultural crop.
Cultivars have been bred for larger edible fruits and ornamental value.
The fruits are high in pectin and anthocyanins,
and have no known pest problems.
The somewhat unpleasant taste of the raw fruit may limit its use to
blended juices, liqueurs, and medicinal products.
