The purpose of the research was to study the biochemical composition of apple fruits on the basis of the analysis and selection of adaptive varieties and hybrids, suitable for organic gardening of fruits, not inferior to the world's best ones as to the content of PAS. The biochemical composition of 13 apple varieties of different geographical origin was studied by representative methods. The order of the accumulation of elements in the fruit and their total content were established. The total amount of elements in hybrid No. 1 is the highest among all the studied varieties. Antioxidant activity of the apples grown in the conditions of Moscow is 3-5% higher the antioxidant activity of imported varieties. Such perspective varieties as hybrid No. 1, 'Mayak Zagorya' and 'Legenda' are suitable for the production of organic products. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
