Abstract

This study was carried out to evaluate some physical and chemical properties of wild bilberry fruits collected from Sarıkamış forest of Kars province in Eastern Anatolia Region of Turkey. For this purpose, berry width, berry length, berry weight, pH, titratable acidity content (TAC), soluble solid content (SSC), taste, aroma, L*, a*, and b* color values were measured based on 4 replications of 20 fruit samples each from 20 plant genotypes. The results were interpreted on average values. Average values for width, length, weight, pH, TAC, SSC, taste, aroma and L*, a*, b* color values of berries were found as: 9.12 mm, 8.02 mm, 5.08 g, 2.22, 2.70%, 7.41%, 2.95, 3.00, 14.88, 1.72 and 0.06, respectively. Range values for the corresponding characteristics were determined as: 7.55 to 10.37 mm, 6.95 to 9.80 mm, 3.00 to 7.00 g, 2.04 to 2.60 %, 2.40 to 3.00 %, 6.00 to 8.50, 2.00 to 4.00, 13.24 to 16.30, 1.004 to 3.04 and -1.98 to 3.87, respectively (There is no aroma interval between these values). The current research is a preliminary evaluation for some physical and chemical characteristics of wild bilberries native to Sarıkamış district. Consequently, more detailed studies should be conducted on further physical and chemical characteristics of bilberries for breeding purposes and to gain baseline knowledge on the flora of Turkey.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye’nin Doğu Anadolu Bölgesindeki Kars-Sarıkamış ormanlarında yetişen çoban üzümü meyvelerinin bazı fiziksel ve kimyasal özelliklerinin belirlenmesidir. Bu amaçla meyve ağırlığı, genişliği, uzunluğu, pH, titre edilebilir asit miktarı, suda çözünebilir kuru madde miktarı, tat, aroma, L, a ve b değerleri, 20 farklı bitkiden elde edilen 20’şer adet meyvede, 4’er tekerrürlü olarak yapılmıştır. Sonuçlar ortalama değerler üzerinden yorumlanmıştır. Meyve genişliği, uzunluğu, ağırlığı, pH, titre edilebilir asit miktarı, suda çözünebilir kuru madde miktarı, tat, aroma ile L*, a* ve b* renk değerleri sırasıyla: 9.12 mm, 8.02 mm, 5.08 g, 2.22, 2.70%, 7.41 %, 2.95, 3.00, 14.884, 1.72 ve 0.065 olarak bulunmuştur. Sözü geçen bu parametrelerin aralıkları ise sırasıyla: 7.55-10.37 mm, 6.95-9.80 mm, 3.00-7.00 g, 2.04-2.60, 2.40-3.00 %, 6.00-8.50 %, 2.00-4.00, 13.24-16.30, 1.004-3.04 ve -1.98-3.87’dır (Aroma için aralık değer tespit edilmemiştir). Elde edilen bu sonuçlar, Sarıkamış bölgesinde yetişen çoban üzümlerinin bazı fiziksel ve kimyasal özelliklerinin belirlenmesi açısından bir ön çalışma niteliğindedir. Türkiye florası hakkında bilgi edinmek ve ıslah amaçlı kullanımlar için çoban üzümlerinin fiziksel ve kimyasal özellikleri üzerine daha kapsamlı araştırmalar yapılmalıdır.
