  <dc:description xml:lang="eng">Abstract: The objective of this study was to examine the content of the primary metabolites (soluble solids, total sugars, invert sugars, proteins, sucrose, titratable acidity and pH) in the fruits of 10 introduced plum cultivars (ʻKatinka‘, ‗Opal‘, ‗Viktorija‘, ‗Hanita‘, ‗Jubileum‘,
‗Valor‘, ‗Stanley‘, ‗Jojo‘, ‗Presenta and ‗Tegera‘), 13 plum cultivars developed in a
breeding program at the Fruit Research Institute, Čačak (‗Čačanska Rana‘, ‗Boranka‘,
‗Čačanska Lepotica‘ ‗Valerija‘, ‗Timočanka‘, ‗Čačanska Najbolja‘, ‗Zlatka‘, ‗Valjevka‘,
‗Mildora‘, ‗Nada‘, ‗Krina‘, ‗Pozna Plava‘ and ‗Čačanska Rodna‘) and myrobalan plum
(Prunus cerasifera Ehrh.). In the present results, significant differences were observed in
the biosynthesis of primary metabolites between fruits from the various cultivars. The
synthesis of soluble solids was the most intensive in the fruit of cultivar ‗Mildora‘ (23.97%), and the lowest in Prunus cerasifera (12.15%). The highest values of total sugars (14.25%) and pH (4.18), and the lowest level of titratable acidity (0.49%) were
also recorded in ‗Mildora‘, while the highest level of invert sugars was determined in ‗Krina‘ (9.51%) and ‗Hanita‘ (9.45%). The difference between the cultivars exhibiting the
highest and the lowest in the content of proteins was 1.89-fold, while the difference in the
sucrose contents was 2.89-fold. Generally, the highest protein content was found in
myrobalan plum (1.15%), and sucrose in ‗Stanley‘ (5.54%) and ‗Mildora‘ (5.49%). The
present results showed that tested cultivars are rich in primary metabolites and the
genetic background of cultivars is an important factor in determining the composition and content of primary compounds in plum fruits. </dc:description>
