| Cultivar | Chlorophyll b (mg/mL) |
Carotenoid (mg/L) |
Anthocyanin (mg/100 g) |
Phenol (mg/100 g) |
Catalase (UNIT)* |
Peroxidase (UNIT)* |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ‘Zard’ | 1.05b | 7.12 a | 15.44 a | 2.10 a | 0.037c | 0.085c |
| ‘Arbequina’ | 1.30 a | 5.65b | 1.65b | 2.05 a | 0.062 a | 0.188 a |
| ‘Manzanilla’ | 1.16 ab | 2.34c | 14.67 a | 1.60b | 0.047b | 0.120b |
Similar letter(s) in each column shows significant differences based on the LSD test.
* Catalase and peroxidase are expressed in μM H2O2 consumed/min/mg protein.
