The study aims to assess how climate change affects the biochemical properties of popular apple varieties.
Analyzed four apple varieties: Granny Smith, Golden Delicious, Red Delicious, and Florina.
Monitored biochemical indicators such as Brix, EC, pH, Eh, vitamin C, and dissolved salts.
Conducted observations in the Kyustendil valley from 2020 to 2025.
Performed correlation analysis between temperature stress and biochemical responses.
Increased temperatures and decreased precipitation correlated with higher Brix, EC, TDS, Salts, and vitamin C levels.
Eh and pH levels remained unchanged across the varieties.
Findings indicate disrupted salt balance during drier years, affecting fruit quality.
