Abstract:The effect of conventional and organic cultivation on the sugar and acid profile of processing varieties with different lycopene accumulation has been studied in Navarra and Extremadura, the two main growing regions in Spain. High differences in the acid profile (malic vs. citric) and in the sugar accumulation of the varieties were found. In some cases, the higher values in the content of taste-related compounds coincide with previously described high lycopene contents. The cultivation system had no significan… Show more
