“…The method was fully described by Haglund et al (1997).The taste attributes (sweetness, acidulous taste and bitterness) and consistency attributes (firmness and juiciness) were entered into an evaluation form. This method of evaluation is quantitative meaning that each descriptive criterion for each sample was scored on a scale from 0 to 9 (Guerineau et al, 2000). However, these five criteria had also to be summarised as the intensity of the total taste impression.…”

The effect of various growing methods of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) cv. Hector on fruit yield and sensory properties was examined. The growing methods used were: bare soil (BS), black plastic mulch (BPM), bare soil with polypropylene row cover (BS + RC) and black plastic mulch with polypropylene row cover (BPM + RC). The yields of all growing methods were reduced during growing season of extreme rainfall. The results show that the use of BPM + RC resulted in the highest total fruit yield (15.93 t ha-1). By using row cover (BS + RC or BPM + RC) it has been observed that marketable yield could be significantly higher than in the BS and the BPM treatments. Plants grown in the BPM and in the BPM + RC yielded larger number of fruits in comparison to plants in the BS or in the BS + RC. The fruit height and diameter were not affected by the treatments. This study also gives a sensory characterisation of various growing methods as an indicator of suitability for growing and marketing of tomatoes. Tomatoes grown in the BPM + RC resulted in the highest total taste intensity.

SUMMARY :A field experiment was conducted on muskmelon varieties for the assessment of qualitative traits (TSS, total sugars acidity, aroma, sweetness, flavour and appearance of fruit).High TSS content was observed in the varieties viz., Kanpur (12.03° Brix), Alpur (11.33° Brix), Arka Jeet (11.11° Brix), Pusa Madhuras (10.46° Brix) and Siddavatam Dosa (10.00° Brix). The total sugars was high inthe varieties viz., Kanpur, Alpur, Arka Jeet, Pusa Maduras and Siddavatam Dosa (15.58 %, 15.02 %, 14.40 %, 13.26 % and 12.35 %, respectively). Low acidity was recorded in the varieties, Kanpur (0.06 %) and Alpur (0.08 %).The muskmelon varieties viz., Bathesa, Kanpur, Pusa Madhuraswere adjudged best in terms of aroma (2.6, 2.3 and 2.1,respectively). The varieties, Alpur, Kanpur, Pusa Madhuras, Arka Jeet, Siddavatam Dosa were identified best in terms of sweetness (3.0, 3.0, 2.8, 2.6 and 2.5, respectively). The varieties, Bathesa, Alpur, Kanpur, Siddavatam Dosa, Pusa Madhuras were observed good interms of flavour (3.4, 3.3, 3.1, 3.0 and 2.8,respectively) based on ratings developed through organoleptic test.How to cite this article : Sushmitha, P., Srinivasulu, B., Rao, M.
