Abstract: The correlation between the content of vitamin C and that of anthocyanins in 65 samples of red radish (Raphanus sativus L.) was studied.The result indicated that the content of vitamin C in red radish was significantly correlated with the content of anthocyanins (r = 0.3645,P<0.01).The linear regression analysis showed that the content of anthocyanins (X) may be used to estimate the content of vitamin C (Y) .The equation was expressed as follows: Y=17.06+7.31X (F=9.6460,P<0.01) .

Key words: Red radish, Vitamin C, Anthocyanins
