Abstract :This study was carried out to determine the physical properties, biochemical and bioactive compounds of different apple cultivars grown in Yahyalı district of Kayseri province. The plant material of the research consisted of apple cvs. ‘Scarlet Spur’, ‘Starking Delicious’, ‘Starkrimson Delicious’, ‘Golden Delicious’, and ‘Super Chief’. In the study fruit weight, length, width, firmness, soluble solid contents insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SSC);, titratable acidity insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(TA);, vitamin C, total phenolics, total flavonoids, and antioxidant activities insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(DPPH and FRAP assays); were investigated. In the findings, significant differences were determined between the fruit characteristics of the cultivars. The highest fruit weight insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(289.96 g); and length insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(32.61 mm); were measured from ‘Scarlet Spur’, while the highest fruit width insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(34.86 mm); was measured from ‘Scarlet Spur’ and ‘Starkrimson Delicious’. The SSC was determined between 11.65 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(‘Super Chief’);-14.30% insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(‘Starkrimson Delicious’);, and TA between 0.47% insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(‘Super Chief’);-1.13% insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(‘Golden Delicious’);. The highest vitamin C content was measured in ‘Starking Delicious’ cultivar insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(66 mg100 g-1); compared to the others. In terms of total phenolic content, ‘Scarlet Spur’ insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(38.2 g GAE L-1); and ‘Super Chief’ insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(36.5 g GAE L-1); cultivars had the highest values, while ‘Super Chief’ had the highest values in terms of total flavonoids insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(23.5 g QE L-1);, and antioxidant activity insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(FRAP, 490.7 mmol TE L-1; DPPH, 1145.9 mmol TE L-1);. As a result, it was revealed the differences between the physical, biochemical, and bioactive contents of apple cultivars grown in Yahyalı district of Kayseri province.
