“…In the plum samples studied, quinic acid was the most abundant organic acid (accounted for, on average, 57.1%), followed by malic (17.91%), and citric acid (11.1%) (Table 4). This does not correspond with the studies of Stacewicz-Sapuntzakis and co-workers [19] and Lin and co-authors [73], who claimed that malic acid was the dominant one. Quinic acid was the most abundant organic acid in the samples, mainly because it is involved in plant biosynthesis processes, and its content ranged from 2.72 (TR2) to 13.70 g/kg dw (UJ1).…”

“…Plums from Ullensvang had higher TPC and RSA values, while Valor had the highest TPC value and Jubileum had the highest RSA value. The results obtained are in fairly close agreement with the Norwegian plums analyzed by Fotirić Akšić and co-authors [6], together with those investigated in other studies [73,85].…”

The aim of this work was to investigate the influence of two locations and seven cultivars on the profiling of metabolites in organically grown plums (Prunus domestica L.) fruit in Norway. P, K, and Ca were most abundant in the studied fruits, while Ba and Sr formed a clear line between the locations. The most abundant sugars were glucose, fructose, sucrose, and sorbitol, which together accounted for up to 97.00%. Quinic acid and malic acid were the predominant organic acids, while chlorogenic acid, rutin, and kaempferol-3-O-glucoside were the most abundant polyphenols. Plums from Ullensvang were characterized by a higher content of minerals, sugars, organic acids, total polyphenol content (TPC), and radical scavenging activity (RSA), while plums from Telemark had a higher content of quantified polyphenols. The cultivar ‘Mallard’ had the highest mineral and radical scavenging activity, ‘Opal’ had the sweetest fruit, ‘Jubileum’ had the highest acidity, ‘Excalibur’ had the highest TPC content, and ‘Valor’ stored the highest content of quantified polyphenols, especially chlorogenic acid. These results provide comprehensive information on the chemical profiles of selected plum cultivars, suggesting that organic plums are a rich source of beneficial compounds that can have a positive impact on human health.

“…Considering the seven quality indicators comprehensively, the PCA was performed on the standardized data to explore the differences in OPLS-DA is a supervised statistical method of discriminant analysis that differs from PCA (An et al, 2023;Lin et al, 2023). It can be seen that there were different distribution areas between asparagus samples with different stem colors (Figure 3a), indicating that stem color had a significant impact on the quality of asparagus.…”

Asparagus, a vital economic contributor, is a well‐liked vegetable grown around the globe, and some secondary metabolites in its spear are beneficial to human health. Asparagus spears possess a significant quantity of nutrients and phytochemicals; however, the difference in these chemical compositions among various varieties has not been sufficiently studied. This work aimed to detect the chemical compositions of 30 varieties of asparagus and to assess them by principal component analysis (PCA). The results showed that the contents of these chemical compositions varied in varieties. Selenium (Se, 1.12–2.9 μg/100 g dry‐weight [DW]) was abundant in asparagus, with an average dry matter content of 8.25%. Free amino acids (5.60–9.98 g/100 g DW) and polyphenols (6.34–8.67 mg/g DW) were both present in high amounts, along with flavonoids (4.218–8.22 mg/g DW) and protodioscin (0.44–1.96 mg/g DW). Correlation analysis, PCA, and hierarchical cluster analysis were used to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of asparagus. Atlas, Appolo, Jinggang 111, Jingke 2, and WS‐1 were the top five varieties with comprehensive scores. This study provided valuable data for the breeding, quality improvement, processing, and utilization of asparagus varieties in the future.

“…Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry has proven to be a reliable technique for volatile evaluation. Fruit VOCs can widely differ, but some of the chemical classes reported in research include acids, alcohols, aldehydes, alkanes, alkenes, ketones, esters, furans, and others [7]. Additionally, apricots are rich in esters, terpenes, alcohols, lactones, and aldehydes, while esters, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, acids, and terpenoids are usually present in plums [8].…”

The “Stendesto” plumcot is the only successful Bulgarian plum–apricot hybrid having the “Modesto” apricot and the “Stanley” plum as parents. The current study reports on the metabolites and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) discovered in the three fruits. Forty-one metabolites in total, as represented by amino acids, organic acids, sugar acids and alcohols, phenolic acids, fatty acids, mono- and di-saccharides, and sterols, were identified in the samples. Additionally, sixty-five VOCs were profiled using the gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis and HS-SPME technique. Among these VOCs, alcohols, aldehydes, esters, ketones, lactones, terpenoids, and benzene derivatives were the existing chemical classes. Not all metabolites were present in both apricot and plum, but the hybrid had managed to inherit all of the identified metabolites with the exception of γ-aminobutyric acid. This study is a first on the topic of plumcot fruit evaluation referencing its parental lines. Principal component (PCA) and hierarchical cluster (HCA) analyses further aided in revealing the differences and similarities between the “Stendesto” plum–apricot hybrid and its parents.
