Abstract

Rosa canina ( wild rose, bush , bramble ) is a shrub commonly encountered in the wild flora of Romania , spread from the coast up to altitudes of 1200 m ( 1700), with low requirements to pedoclimatic factors . From this species are used the false- fruits ( Cynosbati fructus ) mature , dried, harvested from wild flora or cultures , with food and therapeutic importance , due to their multiple properties , but mostly because of its high content of vitamin C. In this way, it was studied the germoplasm existent in some areas of Oltenia ( Romania) to identify biochemically and technology valuable biotypes from biochemically and technologically point of view. The results indicate a high and very high variability in the biochemical and technological parameters a nalyzed . Thus, t he content of TSS was recorded b etween 10 % ( B2) and 18 % ( M1), the vitamin C was over 560 mg / 100g to populations S1 ​​, S3 and the acidity in was 1.4 to 3.6%. Recorded values ​​for the mass of 100 fruit -technological and economically significant , were between 117g (A1 ) and 286g (B3 and T4) and the percentage of pulp/100g fruit ranged from 49.2 (M1 ) and 66.5 (T1) .
