Evaluation of the Carbohydrate Composition of Crabapple Fruit Tissues Native to Northern Asia.

A comprehensive comparative analysis of the carbohydrate composition (soluble sugars and pectins) of fruit tissues of , , , and , characteristic of the vast territory of Eastern Siberia and the Far East, was carried out. It was shown that a large part of the soluble carbohydrates of the studied species were represented by transport sugars-sorbitol and sucrose. These compounds also provided the main variability in the carbohydrate composition of fruits in the studied material.
