Characterization of some of the fruit quality characteristics on apple "Kasel 37xdelbarestivale" f1 population

In this study, it was aimed to determine fruit quality characters such as aroma compounds, sugars etc. by using a F1 population that was created by crossing 'Kaşel-37' (female parent; selected from Amasya cultivar) and 'Delbarestivale' (male parent) cultivars. Fruits that had grown in Eğirdir, Samsun ve Malatya regions addition to the pomological analyses, flavor components that have a high importance for fruit quality, detected by HS-SPME/GC/MS (Headspace Solid Phase Micro Extraction Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry) methods and as for the sugars, organic acids and vitamin C analyses HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) techniques were used. Totally 91 different characteristics were investigated. As a result, average fruit weight and height obtained by Eğirdir location found higher than the other locations. In addition, TSS content of F1 fruits were found higher than the parent fruits while firmness were lower. Analyses performed with HPLC technique showed that the most common organic acid was malic acid and the most common sugar was fructose. Accroding to the results of HS-SPME/GC/MS analysis, it was determined that 16 different aldehydes, 15 esters, 15 acids, 13 alcohols, 5 kethones and 3 terpenes.
