Abstract

In recent years, inbreeding has been increasing the attention to obtaining new varieties of fruit crops with high nutritional and tasting quality of fruits. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a number of selected forms of Fragaria ananassa Duch., obtained using the cultivar “Lirovidnaya” – a donor with an increased content of compounds with antioxidant activity and dessert taste. Studies have shown that in the conditions of the Moscow region, the productivity of obtained genotypes was at the level of the standard high-yielding cultivar “Senga Sengana”. The best lines contained up to 103.3 mg/100 g of vitamin C, up to 228.9 mg/100 g of total polyphenols and up to 96.5 mg / 100 g of total anthocyanins, which was one third higher compared to control. The tasting evaluation of the fruits of strawberry revealed three lines with an assessment of 4.9-5 scores. Three lines, ELS 2-04, ELS 8-04, and ELS 20-04, were recommended for further breeding under Central Russia conditions.
