Accessing data from structures

If I have a structure
Pop.A=[aa bb cc]
Pop.B=[ 2 4 6]
I need to find the highest value in Pop.B
max(cat(1,Pop.B))=6;
How do I extract the corresponding value in Pop.A??
Pop(3)

Address them as you normally would, using the second output (the index of the first occurrence of the maximum value) from the max function:
[aa,bb,cc] = deal(3,5,7); % Assign Variables
Pop.A=[aa bb cc];
Pop.B=[ 2 4 6];
[Bmax, Bidx] = max(Pop.B);
Amatch = Pop.A(Bidx)
Amatch =
7

[~,maxind] = max(Pop.B);
Pop.A(maxind)
