Contents of sugars and organic acids in the cultivars of peach (Prunus persica L.) and nectarine (Prunus persica var. nucipersica Schneid.) | Vsebnost sladkorjev in organskih kislin v kultivarjih breskev (Prunus persica L.) in nektarin (Prunus persica var. nucipersica Schneid.)

Английский. The contents of sugars and organic acids in fruits were studied among 19 different peach and nectarine cultivars. The fruits were obtained from the Fruit Growing Centre Bilje near Nova Gorica in the time of technological maturity. Sugars (glucose, fructose, sucrose and sorbitol) and organic acids (citric, malic, shikimic and fumaric acid) in fruits were identified and measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Sucrose was the major sugar and malic and citric acids were the predominant organic acids in all cultivars. The content of fructose ranged from 6.76 to 12.97 g/kg, glucose from 5.43 to 11.11 g/kg, sucrose from 46.14 to 70.7 g/kg and sorbitol from 0.40 to 2.80 g/kg of fruits. The content of citric acid was from 1.71 to 8.34 g/kg, malic acid from 3.2 to 8.05 g/kg, shikimic acid from 127 to 809 mg/kg and fumaric acid from 1.56 to 6.09 mg/kg of fruits. The content of total sugars was from 61.53 to 93.70 g/kg and the content of total organic acids was from 7.06 to 14.69 g/kg of fruits. We recommend cultivars ‘Françoise’, ‘Orion’, ‘Venus’, ‘Roza’ and ‘325 x A/8’ from the point of the content of sugars and organic acids and the optimal ratio between them.

словенский. Proučevali smo vsebnost sladkorjev in organskih kislin v plodovih 19 kultivarjev breskev in nektarin, ki so bili nabrani leta 2000 v času tehnološke zrelosti v Sadjarskem centru Bilje pri Novi Gorici. Posamezne sladkorje (fruktozo, glukozo, saharozo in sorbitol) in organske kisline (citronsko, jabolčno, šikiminsko in fumarno kislino) smo analizirali z metodo tekočinske kromatografije visoke ločljivosti (HPLC). Glavni sladkor v plodovih je bil saharoza, med organskimi kislinami pa sta prevladovali jabolčna in citronska kislina. Vrednosti fruktoze so bile od 6,76 do 12,97 g/kg, glukoze od 5,43 do 11,11 g/kg, saharoze od 46,14 do 70,07 g/kg in sorbitola od 0,40 do 2,80 g/kg plodov. Vrednosti citronske kisline so bile od 1,71 do 8,34 g/kg, jabolčne od 3,82 do 8,05 g/kg, šikiminske od 127 do 809 mg/kg in fumarne kisline od 1,56 do 6,09 mg/kg plodov. Vsebnost skupnih sladkorjev je bila od 61,53 do 93,70 g/kg in skupnih organskih kislin od 7,06 do 14,69 g/kg plodov. Z vidika vsebnosti sladkorjev in organskih kislin ter njunega optimalnega razmerja priporočamo od preizkušanih kultivarjev  kultivarje ‘Françoise’, ‘Orion’, ‘Venus’, ‘Roza’ in ‘325 x A/8’.
