<p>A method for breeding tomato plants that produce tomatoes having superior taste characteristics including the steps of, crossing at least one Lycopersicon esculentum plant with a Lycopersicon spp. to produce hybrid seeds, collecting the hybrid F1 seeds, growing plants from the F1 seeds, pollinating the F1 plants, collecting the hybrid seeds produced by the F1 plants, growing plants from the seeds produced by the F1 plants, measuring sucrose, glucose and fructose content of ripe fruit produced from the plants grown from the seeds of the F1 plants; and selecting plants with tomato fruits having desired characteristics including a fructose/glucose ratio greater than 1.8 and fructose levels higher than 1.3 % on a fresh weight basis.</p> |
