Dallinge/ al., 1975), the long-term capacity to absorb and assimilate nitrate (Rao et al., 1977), and the amount of enzyme resulting from the flux of a given amount of nitrate into the cytoplasm complicate the use of enzyme activity measurements for cultivar selection.

Verbenic et al., [15] measured the content in anthocyanins, quercetin and sugars in the fruit of two cultivars and three elderberry selections. Their results show that the leading European cultivar is "Haschberg has significantly higher amounts of total anthocyanins given to other cultivars/selections but lower concentrations of secondary metaboHtes than some selections [15]... 

Different factors may influence the polyphenol content of tomatoes, the major being the cultivar followed by climatic conditions and maturity degree. Therefore, it was of interest to evaluate the polyphenol pattern of tomato cultivars selected among those mostly preferred by consumers or processed by food industry.

Northeast The wine grapes growing successfully in the Northeast are cultivars selected from Vitis amurensis, a wild species native to China, and the hybrids derived from crosses between V. amurensis and V. vinifera. 

Interlaken Seedless (Ontario xSultanina, 1947). Interlaken Seedless was the first of four cultivars selected from Ontario x Sultanina crosses made in 1928 (the other three being Himrod, Romulus and Lakemont). Clusters are medium, conical and winged with medium-sized oval berries (Figure 14.3(c)). The texture is somewhat crisp, and it has a mild fruity/labrasca flavour. It matures in late Augusiyearly September.
