- Study of the Phenolic Content and the antioxidant capacity of Rubus idaeus L. genotypes within the development of a national cultivarPublication . Cornamusaz, Rita; Luz, Francisco; Oliveira, Pedro Brás de; Moncada, Margarida; Câmara, Madalena Bettencourt daThe production of raspberries in Portugal has increased considerably in the last two decades, assuming a great economic interest today. Here, we studied the phenolic content and the antioxidant capacity of selected genotypes within a breeding program. The results suggest that this program may be unintentionally selecting raspberry phenolics. If so, this would be of particular interest, since there is scientific evidence that raspberry phenolics or their metabolites may have beneficial health effects, namely antioxidant activity.
