Abstract

ABSTRACT The quality attributes of two goji berry cultivars, Lasa and New Big, grown in an organic system in the Lithuanian climate were investigated in two consecutive years (2015 and 2016). Concentrations of mineral elements (N, K, P, Mg, Ca, Fe, Zn, B, Cu, Mn, and Se), toxigenic elements (Pb and Cd), dry matter, soluble solids, vitamin C and carotenoids were evaluated. The results showed that the main mineral element in the goji berries was N, with values between 219.4 and 284.8 g kg−1. The New Big berries accumulated significantly higher concentrations of N, K, Fe, Zn, Cu and vitamin C compared with the Lasa berries. Significant differences were found between the two years in the concentrations of macro-elements, such as N, K and P, toxigenic elements (Pb and Cd), and carotenoids (lutein, zeaxanthin and β-cryptoxanthin). Concentrations of toxigenic elements were low and below the permissible limit levels. It was concluded that the goji berries tested in this study were a rich source of essential elements, such as N, K, Fe, Zn, B, Mn, and Cu, vitamin C and carotenoids, especially zeaxanthin and β-cryptoxanthin.

立陶宛种植的有机枸杞(Lycium barbarum L.)中矿物质、可溶性固体、维生素C、类胡萝卜素和产毒元素的浓度

摘要连续两年（2015年和2016年）对生长在立陶宛气候有机系统中的两个枸杞品种Lasa和New Big的质量属性进行了调查。评估了矿物元素（N、K、P、Mg、Ca、Fe、Zn、B、Cu、Mn和Se）、产毒元素（Pb和Cd）、干物质、可溶性固体、维生素C和类胡萝卜素的浓度。结果表明，枸杞子中的主要矿物元素为N，其含量在219.4～284.8 g kg−1之间。与Lasa浆果相比，New Big浆果积累了显著更高浓度的N、K、Fe、Zn、Cu和维生素C。两年间，N、K和P等常量元素、产毒元素（Pb和Cd）和类胡萝卜素（叶黄素、玉米黄质和β-隐黄质）的浓度存在显著差异。产毒元素的浓度较低，低于允许的限量水平。结果表明，本研究中测试的枸杞子富含必需元素，如N、K、Fe、Zn、B、Mn和Cu、维生素C和类胡萝卜素，尤其是玉米黄质和β-隐黄质。

期刊介绍： Biological Agriculture & Horticulture aims to act as the central focus for a wide range of studies into alternative systems of husbandry, and particularly the biological or organic approach to food production. The Journal publishes work of a sound scientific or economic nature related to any aspect of biological husbandry in agriculture, horticulture and forestry in both temperate and tropical conditions, including energy and water utilization, and environmental impact.
