Journal Title: FRUIT GROWING RESEARCH - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
During 2013-2015 period at Research Institute for Fruit Growing Pitesti, Romania (RIFG) a strawberry field trial with ten selections was organized having the objective to compare some of fruit characteristics from ‘Queen Elisa’ and ‘Premial’ cvs. selections: fruit weight (g), fruit length (mm), fruit diameter (mm), the soluble solids (% Brix), fruit acidity (pH) and five color indicators (L*, a*, b*, C* and hue angle). The results showed significant differences between genotypes regarding the following fruit quality parameters: the fruit weight of different genotypes varied significantly and ranged between 10.90 g (‘08-10-27’) and 20.47 g (‘Queen Elisa’); the highest value of content in total soluble solids was recorded by ‘08-10-13’ genotype (9.68 % Brix), followed by ‘Premial’ (9.43 % Brix); the fruit acidity ranged between 3.30 (08-10-10) and 3.60 (08-10-16) and the color of the fruits, determined by chroma (C*) recorded values ranging between 25.49 (‘Queen Elisa’) and 38.57 (‘08-10-5’ genotype) and the hue angle (hº), values between 21.15 (‘08-10-13’) and 26.71 (‘Queen Elisa’). ‘Queen Elisa’ had the highest fruit weight and the most orange-colored.
