Abstract
Fifty genotypes of brinjal having fruits of different colours were evaluated for dry matter, total soluble sugars, total phenols, ortho-dihydroxy phenols (ODHs) and flavonols in two years i.e 2012 and 2013. It was found that brinjal has low sugar content and it is a rich source of phenolic compounds. Highest total phenol content was found in genotype G-415 (Green) in 2012 and 2013. G-418 (Green) and P-71 (Purple) showed ODH content in the maximum range (80-100 mg/100g). The maximum flavonol content was found in BLEND-11-WR-2 which having white coloured fruits.
