  • This study was carried out to evaluate major agronomical characterization and phenol compound contents, Xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity (XO), Catalase activity, Superoxide dismutase activity (SOD) and 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical sacvenging activity were analyzed in colored waxy corns. The mean of stem height and ear length were 248.8 cm and 18.6 cm, respectively. The pericarp thickness in CNU108 $(30.3{\mu}m)$ was thinner than other hybrids. The period of tasseling days in CNU69 and CNU202 were very shorter than other hybrids (59 days). 100-kernel weight of CNU50 was 35.6 g and heavier than the others. The antioxidant activities such as xanthin oxidase (XO), catalase and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were higher in CNU70 and CNUI 38. Especially highest EDA (electron donating ability) in DPPH radical scavenging effect was 94.8% and 94.6% in CNU160 and CNU193, respectively. In the results, the antioxidant enzyme activity and antioxidant acticity were higher in CNU109 and CNU 34 hybrids. The hybrids, CNU34, CNU70, CNU108, CNU 138 and CNU193 may be considered higher functional color waxy corn.

  • Anthocyanin, polyphenol contents, and antioxidant activities of introduced small fruits and berries varieties were investigated. The anthocyanin and polyphenol contents were different according to the varieties. The highest total anthocyanin was 927.9~1,149.1 mg, $100g^{-1}FW$, and the highest total polyphenol content was 502.2 to 530.5 mg, $100g^{-1}FW$ in black chokeberry. A linear correlation ($r^2$) was shown between DPPH free-radical scavenging activity and total anthocyanin ($r^2=0.7669^{**}$) and phenolic content ($r^2=0.8956^{***}$). The content of quercetin, catechin and epicatechin was higher among the all types of polyphenols in small fruits and berries varieties. The main anthocyanin of blueberry and black currant was delphinidin-3-glucoside, and the major anthocyanin of saskatoon berry and black chokeberry was cyanidin-3-galactoside.
