Other claims from this paper (11)
- Observation The annual growth period of the 45 honeyberry accessions ranged from 153 days (part of the Russian accessions) to 173 days (part of the Japanese accessions) in Harbin, China.
- Observation Accessions of Japanese origin consistently exhibited delayed flowering and ripening.
- Observation Accessions of Japanese origin consistently had higher single fruit weights and fruit firmness.
- Observation Accessions of Russian and Chinese origins displayed relatively early to mid-season phenology.
- Observation Accessions of Russian and Chinese origins had higher levels of vitamin C, anthocyanins and soluble solids.
- Observation The coefficient of variation in total anthocyanins among the 45 accessions was 35%.
- Observation The coefficient of variation in flavonoids among the 45 accessions was 30%.
- Observation The coefficient of variation in phenolics among the 45 accessions was 21%.
- Observation The coefficient of variation in titratable acidity among the 45 accessions was 19%.
- Observation Accession 'RiM–3' exhibited both a relatively large fruit size and high firmness.
- Observation The authors infer that 'RiM–3' has potential to overcome the trade-off between fruit size and firmness typically observed in Chinese and Russian accessions.
