The present study wascarried for determining some chemical and physical properties of fruit such as titratableacidity, pH, total soluble solid (oBrix), Vitamin C, dry matter (%), fruit water content (%),ash (%) and fruit mass in 8 peach cultivars: ¡¯Zoodras¡¯, ¡®Khouni-haste-joda¡¯, ¡®Kosari¡¯,¡®Anjiri-ye-tabestane¡¯, ¡®Anjiri-ye-maleki¡¯, ¡®Anjiri-ye-khouni¡¯, ¡®Haj-kazemi¡¯, ¡®Haste-joda¡¯.Results showed significant differences between studied cultivars, in all of propertiesexcept ash (%). The highest Brix and dry matter and the lowest fruit water contentbetween studied cultivars were corresponded to ¡®Anjiri-ye-khouni¡¯. In general, ¡¯Zoodras¡¯had the lowest Total soluble solids (TSS) and the highest fruit water content. Totalsoluble solid content of these eight cultivars are ranged from 11.50 to 17.33 oBrix. Thehighest vitamin C and titratable acidity and the lowest pH were corresponded to ¡®Khounihaste-joda¡¯. ¡®Anjiri-ye maleki¡¯ had the highest TSS/Ta ratio and the lowest acidity andvitamin C content. %K Peach %K cultivar %K Total soluble solids %K Titratable acidity %K Vitamin C %K Dry matter %K Water content. %U http://www.resplantbiol.com/view/article/2/5/4
