abstract = "Strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) is widely known for its nutritional value, richness in polyphenols and antioxidant capacity. In abundance of numerous ongoing strawberry breeding programs worldwide, some of the main parameters for breeding and selection are fruit quality, flavour and aroma which are directly affecting commercial acceptance [1]. These could be easily identified with some of objective measurements such as soluble solids concentration (°Brix), acid contents (titratable acidity, TA) and Brix/acid ratio, which could be strong predictors of quality in terms of consumer acceptability [1,2]. In this trial, we compared 24 strawberry genotypes, including 12 parental varieties and 12 perspective candidates obtained by crossing these particular parental varieties. Results of °Brix, titratable acidity and °Brix/acid ratio measurements indicated that new perspective candidates have had higher °Brix/acid ratio than the parental varieties, leading to conclusion that those genotypes had better flavour. Therefore, this ratio could potentially be used as indicator for distinguishing consumer acceptance.",
