“…Despite its lower stability, it is of great interest for specific environments, especially considering its closer relation to cultivated tomato. Both accessions had a genotypic value much higher than the positive controls, LA3538 that carries the high pigment mutation (hp 1 ) related to high contents of l-ascorbic acid (Jarret et al, 1984) and CDP4777, previously studied in detail (Roselló et al, 2011), showing a genotypic value 150% higher than the standard controls.…”

“…Accession LA3538 from S. lycopersicon (provided by TGRC), which carries the high pigment gene (hp 1 ) was included as reference, as high ascorbic acid contents have been described in this germplasm (Jarret et al, 1984). Accession CDP4777 was also included as it showed very high content in previous assays in the same conditions (Roselló et al, 2011).…”

“…Wild relative species such as Solanum peruvianum L., Solanum pennellii Correll or Solanum pimpinellifolium L. have been found to be good sources of high ascorbic acid content (Stevens and Rick, 1986;Di Matteo et al, 2010;Roselló et al, 2011). In fact, cultivars such as Doublerich, derived from S. peruvianum, have been developed and commercialized as high vitamin C tomatoes.…”

a b s t r a c tThe genotypic potential for high l-ascorbic acid content of 15 accessions of S. lycopersicon and S. pimpinellifolium has been evaluated in three environments, including open-air and glasshouse cultivation and two localities. The environmental effect on l-ascorbic acid accumulation was highly genotype-dependant and the variance ascribed to the G×E environment was similar in importance to that ascribed to genotype. The variation found within accession might be ascribed to microenvironmental effects associated with temperature changes and oxidative stress or population variability. Several accessions with high genotypic values ( +G) have been identified. Among them, accession PI365959 of S. pimpinellifolium, showed a genotypic value of 293.8 mg kg −1 , statistically significant higher (P < 0.05) than the genotypic potential of controls reported to have high l-ascorbic content (CDP4777, 115.0 mg kg −1 ). It also showed positive G×E interactions, with a relatively high stability. Accession LA1423 of S. lycopersicon var. cerasiforme, despite being less stable, had also high genotypic values for l-ascorbic acid accumulation (197.4 mg kg −1 ). This germplasm will be of great interest for the development of new tomato cultivars targeted to added-value markets appreciating nutritional or functional quality. The close relationship of the selected material with the cultivated tomato will enable an efficient and rapid exploitation of their potential in breeding programmes.

“…The samples were shaken again, and measurements were immediately taken by the spectrophotometer. A calibration line relating standard concentrations and absorbance at 510 nm was used to obtain lycopene concentrations (Roselló et al, 2011). Lycopene content was expressed as milligrams per 100 g fresh weight.…”

The use of eco-friendly mulch materials as alternatives to the standard polyethylene (PE) has become increasingly prevalent worldwide. Consequently, a comparison of mulch materials from different origins is necessary to evaluate their feasibility. Several researchers have compared the effects of mulch materials on each crop variable through univariate analysis (ANOVA).However, it is important to focus on the effect of these materials on fruit quality, because this factor decisively infl uences the acceptance of the fi nal product by consumers and the industrial sector. This study aimed to analyze the information supplied by a randomized complete block experiment combined over two seasons, a principal component analysis (PCA) and a cluster analysis (CA) when studying the effects of mulch materials on the quality of processing tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.). The study focused on the variability in the quality measurements and on the determination of mulch materials with a similar response to them. A comparison of the results from both types of analysis yielded complementary information. ANOVA showed the similarity of certain materials. However, considering the totality of the variables analyzed, the fi nal interpretation was slightly complicated. PCA indicated that the juice color, the fruit fi rmness and the soluble solid content were the most infl uential factors in the total variability of a set of 12 juice and fruit variables, and CA allowed us to establish four categories of treatment: plastics (polyethylene -PE, oxo-and biodegradable materials), papers, manual weeding and barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) straw. Oxobiodegradable and PE were most closely related based on CA.
