Resumen :
In Europe, the cultivation of blood oranges for fresh consumption is increasing due to their
excellent organoleptic and nutraceutical properties, which give this fruit the status of functional
food. Blood orange has a higher content of bioactive compounds, which confer additional benefits
for human health. The main morphological and qualitative parameters were studied together with
the content of primary metabolites by 1H NMR and secondary metabolites by HPLC-ESI-DAD-MSn
from eight varieties of blood orange grafted on Citrus macrophylla. Tarocco Dalmuso was the variety
with the highest values of weight (350.6 g), caliber (86.4 mm and 88.6 mm) and juice content (214.2 g).
Tarocco Gallo obtained the most interesting qualitative parameters (13.95 Brix; 22.75 MI). The most
intense red juice was in Sanguinelli (a* = 9.45) and, in crust, it was in Tarocco Scirè (a* = 40.13). The
most abundant primary metabolites were proline, aspartate and asparagine, citric acid and sucrose.
The results showed that the juice of the Moro had the highest levels of total flavones and flavanones
(90.07 and 592.88 mg L1, respectively), and Sanguinelli in total anthocyanins (101.06 mg L1).
To conclude, Tarocco Dalmuso obtained the best values of agronomic parameters, and Moro and
Sanguinelli in the content of phenolic compounds.
