This study was conducted to investigate the nutrient composition of everbearing strawberry cultivar grown on highlands of Gangwon province after harvest. Various phytochemical compositions such as ascorbic acid, anthocyanin, malondialdehyde, and phenolic compounds were analyzed in strawberry fruits from five different cultivars (cv. Albion, Flamenco, Goha, San Andreas, and Seascape). Ascorbic acid content was similar among five cultivars at 20 mg 100 g, whereas major pigment anthocyanin in Seascape was higher than in any other cultivars. Goha and San Andreas showed higher total phenolic compound contents. The effect of room or forced-air precooling on Flamenco and Goha was studied. Higher weight loss was observed in Flamenco treated with forced-air cooling, while in Goha both precooling treatments induced weight loss. Both precooling treatments were effective to maintain firmness in two strawberry cultivars. Forced air cooling maintained total phenolic contents until 12 days of storage, and the efficiency accelerated by low temperature storage.

Strawberries are appreciated by consumers for their characteristic taste and health benefits, which enhance their demand throughout the year. Everbearing strawberries can produce fruits for a longer period and could thus meet this demand, but the fruit quality depends on environmental factors and the cultivar. This study focused on the effect of environmental conditions on the physical attributes and the composition of everbearing Capri cultivar fruit harvested from the end of June to the end of October.

The volatile constituents of the peel of three cultivars of Australian finger lime (Citrus australasica) were investigated: Alstonville, Judy's Everbearing and Durham's Emerald. Both qualitative and quantitative GC-MS analyses were performed on their peel solvent extract. The results showed that the unique phenotypes of finger lime are also correlated to unique molecular compositions.
