We determined fourteen phenolic compounds, five organic acids and three sugars in sweet cherry fruit. In general, gallic, vanilic and ellagic acid were major phenolic compounds in fruit of sweet cherry cultivars and genotype. The genotype1355 had more phenolic compounds compared to cultivars. It was determined that malic acid was frequently determined among the fruit of investigated cultivars and genotype. It was observed the highest sugar content was measured in 1355 genotype and 0900 Ziraat cultivar. Total antioxidant capacity was the highest (9.22 mu mol TE g(-1)) in fruit of cultivar 0900 Ziraat. Overall the genotype 1355 found the most promising due to having favorable properties and could be recommended for farmers and consumers.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAntioxidant CapacityPhenolic CompoundsPrunus AviumOrganic AcidsSugarsArticle10.23751/pn.v21i3.68972136726792-s2.0-85072287276Q4WOS:000486665700024Q4
