Pomologal and chemical quality of strawberry (Fragaria spp.) grown on locality „Kobatuša“ near Posedarje

In Northern Dalmatia strawberry production in spite optimal ecological conditions is not spread jet. Therefore, it was important to determine the quality of fruits from that area. The experiment was set in Posedarje, locality Kobatuša, in 2015. for cultivars Clery and Alba grown on high beds in two rows, covered with black foil. In experiment were 90 plants per cultivar divided in three blocks, northern (B1), middle (B2) and southern (B3) side of the plantation. Fruit weight was lower for Clery in B1 (10.2 g) than other blocks (11.9-13.0 g), except in B3 for Alba (11.4 g). Fruit thickness was higher in B1 for Clery (22.3 mm) than other blocks (23.9-28.8 mm). Fruit height was lower in B3 for Alba (27.4 mm) than in other blocks (29.7-31.2 mm), except in B1 for Clery (28.9 mm) which had similar fruits than Clery in B3 (31.6 mm) and Alba in B2 (31.2 mm). Clery and Alba had similar pH (3.55), total soluble solids (9.28) and total acids (6.09 g l-1). Cultivar Clery had lower weight, height and width compared to Vrgorac locality that traditionally grown strawberry. Clery at Vrgorac region had higher amount of total acids by 1 g-1 but total soluble solids were higher than in Zagreb area. Cultivar Alba had lower weight, height and width than on Kosovo region. Smaller fruits of both cultivars produced are probably affected by atmospheric conditions, suggesting that production need to be adjusted in other cultivars would be able to express its biological characteristics.
