摘要
The edible pumpkin is grown for its fruits, which can be consumed riped, boiled, or candied. In Romania, the pumpkin culture has recently started attracting the growers attention. In this context, at the Dabuleni research station, six pumpkins (three cultivars 'Marele alb', 'Coroana Prin.ului', 'Tudor', and three genotypes D19, P1, P2) were studied to analyze their nutritional potential. Observations regarding the physical characteristics of the fruits (height, diameter, and weight of the fruit, diameter of the fruit cavity, shape index, and pulp thickness) were analyzed, as well as observations regarding the food quality (soluble dry matter, total dry matter, malic acid, carbohydrates, vitamin C). The thickness of the fruit pulp varied between 3.30 cm for 'Tudor' and 4.50 cm for the 'Coroana Prin.ului' cultivars, and the fruit weight varied between 3.16 kg (P2) and 8.20 kg for the 'Marele Alb'. A content in soluble dry matter of more than 11% was presented at the 'Marele alb', P2, and D19.
