Local plant genetic resources of Prunus sp. in the Forebalkans region of the Troyan municipality. The present study was conducted during the spring-summer period of 2019-2020. A number of expeditionary studies were conducted to search for local genotypes and varieties of the genus Prunus subgenus Cerasus (Gray) in the Forebalkans region. Three local genotypes were selected and described in the present study, and the Oblachinska variety was accepted as a standard. Their main morphological characteristics have been studied: height, diameter, stem length, color, biochemical analysis, the taste of the fruits. Their main morphological characteristics have been studied: height, diameter, stem length, color, biochemical analysis, of the fruit taste. Cherry SCHT has a higher dry matter content of 16.50% and total sugars of 4.70%. Larger amounts of tannins contain the fruits of the SCHB 0.104%. The highest content of total polyphenols was obtained at cherry SCHT 163.14 mg/g. Anthocyanins have a higher content in cherries SCHB 41.94mg%. All three local genotypes are suitable for fresh consumption and processing.
