Abstract:
SUMMARYA study of 76 F1 hybrids involving four sources of cytoplasmic male sterility and 19 male-fertility restorers indicated great diversity among the cytoplasms for total soluble solids. The exploitation of cytoplasms other than milo is recommended for breeding programmes aimed at high total soluble solids content. Most of the Indian restorers showed significant positive general combining ability (GCA) effects, whereas exotic restorers showed negative GCA effects for total soluble solids content.

Abstract:
Sucrose, fructose, total sugars and soluble solids are major factors in determining mature melon fruit sweetness. Bulked segregant analysis was utilized to detect RAPD markers associated with QTL for sucrose, total sugars and soluble solids in an F2 population from the ananas melon cross of Deltex (high sugars) × TGR1551 (low sugars). Sucrose, glucose, fructose and total sugar data were obtained from 108 F2 plants by means of HPLC. Clear separations for sucrose, total sugars and soluble solids between Deltex and TGR1551 were observed, whereas slight differences for glucose and fructose were found. Continuous distributions for sucrose, total sugars and soluble solids were observed in the F2 population indicating quantitative inheritance for the sweetness traits. A significant negative correlation was observed between sucrose and glucose (r = -25) or fructose (r = -0.31). A significant positive correlation was noted between sucrose and total sugars (r = 0.80) or soluble solids (r = 0.64). Three low and high DNA bulk pairs for sucrose, total sugars and soluble solids were developed. A total of 360 primers were used to simultaneously screen between the low and high bulks, and between Deltex and TGR1551. Sixty-eight RAPD markers were polymorphic for the low and high bulks. Of the 68 markers, 24 were found to be significantly associated with sucrose, total sugars or soluble solids on the basis of single-factor ANOVA. Marker OM15.550 was consistently associated with QTL affecting sucrose, glucose, fructose, total sugars and soluble solids, and accounted for 7% to 25% of the phenotypic variation for the traits. These markers associated with the sugar synthesis QTL could be useful to transfer these genes into a low sugar cultivar to enhance the fruit sweetness.

Abstract:
Anaerobic digestion and struvite precipitation were the two effective ways to treat excess sludge for recovering the bioenergy (biogas) and phosphorus. The total solids content played an important role in the biogas production and the phosphorus release. The experimental results showed that cumulative biogas decreased significantly with the increase of total solids content from 5% to 10% but increased subsequently with a further increase of total solids content, and the maximal cumulative biogas was achieved at 5% of total solids. The concentrations of PO43-P and total soluble P varied with total solids content, and the maximal concentrations were obtained under the condition of 20% of total solids, namely 1327 mg·L-1for PO43-P and 1288 mg·L-1for total soluble P. Pearson’s relationship analysis reflected that the released total soluble P was mainly composed of PO43-P during the anaerobic digestion. Furthermore, the maximal yield of PO43-P and the maximal solubilization ratio of total P were achieved at 15% of total solids, and they respectively reached 4.2 mg·g-1and 16.1% with 48% reduction of volatile solids and 40% reduction of total solids after anaerobic digestion.

Abstract:
Abstract Two analytical procedures used to determine total, soluble, and insoluble solids in tomato paste were evaluated. The microwave oven (MO) method was compared to the vacuum oven (VO) method. The VO method is tedious and measured the three solids fractions in the paste directly, while the MO method measured the total solids directly but used an equation to calculate the water-soluble and-insoluble solids. The MO method was faster and less labor-intensive, and yielded small but statistically signifcant higher values for total and insoluble solids and lower statistically signifcant values for soluble solids.

Abstract:
The biometric and physical characterization can provide information on format, yield, concentration of soluble solids. The objective was to characterize physically and biometrically the jabuticaba variety 'Pingo de mel' from the cerrado of Goiás. 200 jaboticaba were used. The content of total soluble solids, longitudinal and transverse diameters, total mass, volume, shape index, density, yield of peeled pulp and the thickness of the peeled pulp were determined. The total soluble solids 15,16 ° Brix, soluble solids content is one of the most important tools to estimate fruit quality. The longitudinal and transverse diameter was 22.25 and 21.56 mm, respectively. The total mass had an average variation because the coefficient of variation was above 20%. Variations can occur due to cultivation techniques and climate can be related to this also variations presented for the volume of this fruit. As for the format index, the fruit was classified as round. The density was 8.35 g mL -1, yield and pulp thickness were already high. Samples of total soluble solids and yield are parameters used as control and selection by the food industry, it means that the fruits in evaluation presented good potential of industrial processing.

Abstract:
Rheological parameters of Juniperus drupacea fruit pekmez were evaluated using a rotational viscometer at 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 °C and at concentrations of 62.8, 68.9, 72.0, and 75.2% total soluble solids. The flow characteristics of Juniperus drupacea fruit pekmez were described by the power law and Herschel—Bulkley models. The Herschel—Bulkley model was found to be the best to describe the rheological property with the coefficient of determination higher than 0.993. Juniperus drupacea pekmez exhibited a time-independent shear thickening behavior. The effect of temperature on viscosity can be described by means of an Arrhenius equation. Depending on the soluble solid contents, the activation energies for flow of diluted samples vary from 78.23 to 60.38 kJ/mol. The effect of soluble solids on viscosity can be described by an exponential equation. Experimental data were fitted to several models in order to describe the effect of temperature and soluble solid content. The combined effect of temperature and soluble solid content on viscosity was also formulated.

Abstract:
The present study was conducted following randomized complete block design with three replications to evaluate the genetic variability of twenty five tomato genotypes for yield and nutritional traits and also their attributing factors. A wide range of variation was observed among the characters studied which have a great interest for tomato breeders. Heritability in broad and narrow sense for soluble solid in green and red tomato, total phenolic content, fruit diameter and seed/fruit was 93.23%, 98.58%, 99.92%, 99.37% and 96.15% respectively and for those traits, phenotypic influence was negligible. Leaf chlorophyll content and total phenolic content showed positive significant correlation with soluble solid (sugar) whereas pH showed negative correlation. Yield/plant was found highly significant and positively correlated with individual fruit weight, fruit diameter, seed/fruit, and plant height whereas soluble solid, leaf chlorophyll content, total phenolic content showed negative correlation. Path analysis revealed that soluble solid had positive direct effect with leaf chlorophyll content, pH of fruit juice and days to first flowering and negative direct effects with individual fruit weight, fruit diameter, plant height, fruit /bunch, whereas yield/plant showed positive direct effects with all above traits except soluble solids in red tomato, which clearly indicate inverse correlation between yield and nutritional components of tomato fruit. Further, principal component analysis found that four principal components contributed 75.1% of the total variability. Individual fruit weight, days to first flowering, pH of fruit juice, fruit/bunch and soluble solids in fruits were found to be the most important traits in PC1, PC2, PC3, PC4 and PC5, respectively. As soluble solid content, yield and its component traits have high heritability, therefore, improvement is also possible using breeding approaches. J. Bangladesh Agril.

Abstract:
Some nonmelting flesh (NMF) peaches develop a characteristic off-flavor during postharvest ripening. A study was conducted using NMF genotypes from the Univ. of Florida breeding program to investigate the off-flavor development in melting flesh (MF) and NMF peach genotypes and to determine the compositional changes associated with the development of off-flavor during postharvest ripening at 8 °C. The study revealed that there were certain chemical components that were consistently associated with the occurrence of off-flavor. Generally, there was a significant increase in total soluble phenolics, polyphenoloxidase (PPO) activity and ethanol content with the increase in the percentage of off-flavored fruit with time in storage at 8 °C in NMF genotypes examined. However, total sugars and total soluble solids decreased significantly during the storage period. These changes in chemical composition of NMF genotypes were not observed in MF genotypes, which did not show off-flavor development. Moreover, highly significant linear correlations were detected between off-flavor development and soluble phenolics, PPO activity, ethanol content, total soluble solids, and sugars in Fla. 92-21C and USDA 87P285, which had the highest percentage of off-flavored fruit. Specifically, soluble phenolics, chlorogenic acid, PPO activity, and ethanol were positively correlated, but soluble sugars and soluble solids were negatively correlated with the off-flavor development. Thus, it is suggested that the accumulation of soluble phenolic compounds and ethanol, and the reduction of soluble solids and sugars contribute to the of off-flavor in NMF genotypes.

Abstract:
Tomato is a fruit rich in bioactive compounds like lycopene, vitamin C and phenolic compounds. However, cultivation conditions can influence the concentration of these substances. In this study, the objective was to analyze quality characteristics of tomato fruits in different cultivation systems. The following characteristics were evaluated: pH, soluble solids content, total acidity, relationship between soluble solids content and total acidity, instrumental color parameters (L *, a *, b *, chroma and hue), texture, bioactive compounds (total carotenoids, lycopene, total phenolic compounds and vitamin C) and antioxidant activity of grape tomato fruits grown in a greenhouse in different systems (soil x substrate). A completely randomized design was used, with two treatments and four replications. The analysis were performed by official methods and in triplicate. The pH, soluble solids, texture, color, lycopene, vitamins C and antioxidant activity were not affected by the cultivation system used. However, grape-type tomatoes grown in substrate showed higher levels of carotenoids (36.31 µg.100 g-1 fresh matter), phenolic compounds (68.37 mg GAE.100 g-1 fresh matter) and ratio between total soluble solids and total acidity (17.90), and lower total acidity (0.58% citric acid 100 g-1), which represents a nutritional, sensorial and functional advantage for the consumer.

Abstract:
Gonggan（Citrus sinensis Osb. ‘Deqing Gonggan’）is a natural hybrid citrus from Guangdong province. To understand conflicting relationships between the change of flavor quality and total soluble solids and titratable acid contents of Gonggan fruits and study the method of flavor quality keeping at room temperature, we investigated that the flavor quality keeping role of aloin and its effects on soluble sugars contents, and acid invertase activity of Gonggan fruits. The results in this paper show that the change of flavor quality can be evaluated through soluble sugars（sucrose, glucose, fructose）contents, and also not through total soluble solids and titratable acid contents. Aloin reduced the changes of the inclusion contents of Gonggan fruits during storage, extended the flavor quality period from 7 to 15 days, changed the variation patterns of total soluble solids, soluble sugars（sucrose, glucose, fructose）contents and acid invertase activity from s-type of control into half-s-shaped. Its role in flavor quality keeping effect on fructose content change of Gonggan fruits is discussed.

ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the physico-chemical composition of native fruits of the Ceará coast at different development stages. The fruits of ‘guajiru’, ‘manipuçá’, ‘murici-pitanga’ and ‘murta’ were collected during the year 2014, and the following evaluations were made: total soluble solids, total titratable acidity, pH, total soluble solids and titratable acidity ratio. A completely randomized design was used, with 5 or 6 treatments, depending on the maturation stage and 4 replicates. For total soluble solids, ‘murta’ obtained a minimum of 2.6 °Brix in stage 1 and ‘manipuçá’ obtained maximum of 24.53 °Brix in stage 5. For the total titratable acidity, ‘guajiru’ showed minimum of 0.09% in stages 3 and 4, and ‘murici-pitanga’ showed maximum of 3.29% in stage 6. ‘Murici-pitanga’ had minimum pH of 3.44 in stage 5 and ‘guajiru’, maximum pH of 5.9 in stage 2. For total soluble solids and titratable acidity ratio, ‘murici-pitanga’ exhibited a minimum of 3.25 in stages 1 and 3, and ‘guajiru’ showed maximum of 141.11 in stage 4. It was concluded that ‘guajiru’ and ‘manipuçá’ fruits reached physiological maturity in stage 3, whereas ‘murici-pitanga’ and ‘murta’ fruits reached in stage 4; thus, these are the ideal stages for fruit harvest.

Abstract:
Fruit properties of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) that determine the flow characteristics of the concentrated product were associated mainly with water-insoluble solids content and serum viscosity. Levels of total (mostly soluble) solids had much less effect on product flowability. Soluble and total solids levels fluctuated widely between and within seasons, increasing during periods of low rainfall and vice versa. Water-insoluble solids content appeared to be mainly cultivar-dependent, and only minimally influenced by moisture and other climatic conditions. Levels of all three solids fractions and serum viscosity differed characteristically from one cultivar to another. Cultivars also differed with respect to apparent loss of water-insoluble solids and serum viscosity during the concentration process.Key words: Tomato, product, consistency, viscosity, solids, serum

Abstract:
Citrus trees in an experimental planting responded well to high application rates of reclaimed water. Irrigation treatments included annual applications of 400 mm of well water and 400, 1250, and 2500 mm of reclaimed water. The effects of these irrigation treatments on two citrus cultivars (`Hamlin' orange and `Orlando' tangelo) combined with four rootstocks were compared. Growth and fruit production were better at the higher irrigation rates. The concentration of soluble solids in juice was diluted at the highest irrigation rate, but total soluble solids per hectare increased due to the greater fruit production. Average soluble solids/ha production was >15% higher at the 2500-mm rate than the 400-mm reclaimed water rate. While fruit soluble solids were usually lowered by higher irrigation, the reduction in fruit soluble solids observed on three of the rootstocks did not occur in trees on Carrizo citrange. Trees on Cleopatra mandarin grew similarly at the different irrigation rates, but canopy volume of trees on Swingle citrumelo was significantly smaller at the 400 mm rate than at the 2500 mm rate. Fruit peel color score was lower but juice color score was higher at the highest irrigation rate. Weed pressure increased with increasing irrigation rate, but was controllable. Both juice and fruit soluble solids were higher on Swingle citrumelo and lower on Cleopatra mandarin rootstock. Total soluble solids/ha, solids/acid ratio, and juice color were higher on Swingle rootstock. Reclaimed water, once believed to be a disposal problem in Florida, can be an acceptable source of irrigation water for citrus on well drained soils at rates up to twice the annual rainfall.

The color and chemical composition of three strawberry (Fragaria ×ananassa Duchesne) cultivars, `Arking', `Cardinal', and Earliglow' and one advanced selection, A-7383, were examined at four maturity stages in a 2-year study. Cultivar- and maturity-related differences were observed in CIELAB color space coordinates, L*, a*, b*, anthocyanin concentration, percent soluble solids; pH, titratable acidity, sugar/acid ratio, and total solids, insoluble solids, fructose, and sucrose content. No cultivar effect was detected for glucose concentration. `Arking' and `Cardinal' had the most intense red color and were similar in L*, a*, b* values, titratable acidity, and the concentration of anthocyanin, soluble solids, total solids, and fructose. They differed significantly in pH, sugar/acid ratio, and insoluble solids. A-7383 and `Earliglow' exhibited differences in all measured characteristics except total solids. A-7383 fruits contained the lowest anthocyanin concentration and were the darkest and least red of the genotypes.

Abstract:
A study was conducted from 1989 to 1991 to examine the effects of continuous tomato cropping, short-term crop rotation and, nitrogen fertilization rates on processing tomato quality. Research was conducted at two sites in southwestern Ontario, Leamington and Dresden, in split-plot experimental design. The rotations included tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) - winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) (underseeded with red clover (Trifolium pratense), tomato-winter wheat-soybean (Glycine max), tomato-alfalfa (Medicago sativa), and tomato-rye (Secale cereale). Nitrogen fertilization rates of 0, 45, 90 and 135 kg/ha were used. Processing tomato cv. Heniz 9230 and Nabisco Brands Ltd. 7107 were assessed for colour, % soluble solids and total solids, and blossom end rot [BER]. In most instances, continuous tomato [C-T] had significantly poorer colour, soluble solids, and total solids than fruit from the various crop rotations. High nitrogen rates for C-T at Leamington, resulted in improved soluble solids and total solids, but had no significant effect on colour. A lower incidence of BER consistently occurred with low rates of nitrogen. Our results indicate that short-term crop rotation and nitrogen management in processing tomatoes can enhance fruit quality when compared to C-T.

Abstract:
Sewage may serve as a source of water and nutrients for plants. In this study, the effects of fertigation with treated sanitary wastewater from Janaúba Sewage Treatment Plant were evaluated on the postharvest and microbiological quality of ‘Prata-Anã’ banana. A randomized block experimental design was used. Four concentrations of wastewater were tested (70, 130, 170, and 200% of 150 kg ha-1 sodium). A wastewater-free control treatment was used for comparison. Two crop cycles were assessed for postharvest and microbiological quality. The parameters measured included total soluble solids, titratable acidity, total soluble solids/titratable acidity ratio, pH, total coliforms, and fecal coliforms on both the peel and the pulp. In the first crop cycle, both soluble solids and fruit pulp pH decreased as wastewater level increased up to a maximum of 141.5%. These correlations were not observed in the second cycle. Wastewater management did not affect the titratable acidity of the soluble solids. The agricultural application of treated sanitary wastewater provided banana fruits with a microbiological profile similar to that obtained with the control (pure water) and with mineral fertilizers. A microbial balance is necessary to maintain the nutritional status of the banana crop.

Abstract:
The rheological behaviour of enzyme clarified Lime (Citrus aurontifolia L.) juice was studied as a function of the total soluble solid (TSS) content (7.3&ndash;55.7&deg;Brix), corresponding water activity (a<sub>w</sub>) (0.985&ndash;0.831) at different temperatures (20&ndash;80<sup>o</sup>C) using co-axial controlled stress rheometer. The rheological parameter shear stress was measured up to the shear rate of 600 s<sup>&ndash;1</sup>. The investigation showed that the enzyme clarified lime juice and its concentrate behaved like a Newtonian fluid with the viscosity (&eta;) being in the range 3.964 to 50.290 mPa s depending upon the concentration and temperature used. The temperature dependency on the viscosity of lime juice was described by Arrhenius equation (r &gt; 0.99) and the activation energy (E<sub>a</sub>) of viscous flow was in the range 4.151 to 26.050 kJ/mol depending upon the total soluble solids content. The effect of total soluble solid content on the flow activation energy was described by exponential type equation (r &gt; 0.98) and that of water activity was described by both the power law and exponential equations (r &gt; 0.99). The effect of total soluble solid content on the viscosity of lime juice followed the second order exponential equation (r &gt; 0.99) at the temperature used. The effect of water activity on the viscosity was described by both the power law and exponential type relationship (r &gt; 0.97). The equations relating to the combined effect of temperature and total soluble solids content/water activity on the viscosity of enzyme clarified lime juice were established. &nbsp;

Abstract:
The effects of high pressure treatment on the rheological properties of protein enriched mango puree were evaluated. In the first part, the original soluble solids in mango puree (28° Brix) was lowered to 26, 23 and 20° Brix, and each was supplemented with 2, 5 and 8% of whey protein to assess the influence of added protein. The samples were then evaluated by dynamic rheology. Pressure treatment resulted in a progressive increase in elastic (G′) and viscous modulii (G″) as well as complex viscosity (η*). Values of G′ were higher than G″ demonstrating that the product behaved more like a gel. Additional tests were carried out by simultaneously varying protein and soluble solids contents, and keeping the total solids at 28%. In this case, the effects of pressure levels and holding times were similar to previous results. However, the positive effects of higher protein were negated by the negative effects of lower soluble solids, resulting in an overall decreasing effect on rheology. The developed models effectively predicted the combined influence of protein and soluble solid concentrations on rheological parameters (R2 > 0.85). Sensory evaluation of 2% and 5% protein supplemented and pressure treated (500 MPa/3 min) mango puree yielded acceptable sensory qualities, resulting in a product with enriched protein content.

Abstract:
Onion is one of the most important vegetable bulb crops in the world. A field experiment was carried out at the experimental fields of the Agricultural Institute of Slovenia in 2017 with the aim to examine the effect of three nitrogen (N) fertilization rates on the physico-chemical characteristics of bulbs of five onion varieties. Three autochthonous and two hybrid onion varieties were evaluated. During the growth 0, 162 and 324 kg Nha-1 were applied. The number of fleshy scale leaves, bulb weight, height, diameter and firmness were determined on onion bulbs. In addition, the total soluble solids and total sugars were analysed. Both factors, i.e. variety and N fertilization rate, significantly affected the number of fleshy scale leaves, while N fertilisation rate also affected bulb firmness and the variety influenced the content of total soluble solids and bulb height. Hybrid varieties had lower total soluble solids compared to autochthonous varieties.

Abstract The study was conducted to determine the effects of Myrobalan rootstock and Blackthorn interstock on fruit physical and chemical traits of five apricot cultivars. The results showed that cultivars grafted on Myrobalan rootstock appear to induce a higher fruit mass when compared with the Blackthorn interstock. Blackthorn interstock showed a tendency to induce a higher soluble solids/titratable acidity ratio than Myrobalan. Values of soluble solids content, total sugars, titratable acidity and fruit firmness between Myrobalan rootstock and Blackthorn interstock were not significant. Regarding cultivars, the greatest fruit mass observed in Roxana in both treatments, and the lowest in Biljana on Myrobalan and in Vera on Blackthorn. The lowest soluble solids, total sugars and soluble solids/titratable acidity ratio were found in Roxana in both variants of grafting, whereas the greatest titratable acidity also observed in Roxana in both cases, respectively. Based on the results from this study, the fruits of Roxana can be recommended for fresh consumption, whereas fruits of the other cultivars can be recommended for processing.

Abstract:
Abstract The demand for organically grown products is increasing because many people are concerned about the environment and believe that organic products are healthier than conventional ones. Some studies have shown that organically produced tomato fruits contain higher levels of antioxidants, polyphenols and carotenoids than those produced conventionally. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of organic and inorganic fertilization on agronomic and quality characteristics of the processing tomato. The 2-year experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design, with three replications and three fertilization treatments (untreated, compost and inorganic fertilizer). The results showed that the highest fruit number per plant (98.5), average fruit weight (63.6 g) and fruit yield (168.0 t ha−1) were obtained under inorganic fertilization. The highest total soluble solids (4.39 °Brix) and total soluble solids to titratable acidity ratio (17.4), L* (43.4) and a* (35.4) values, as well as the highest lycopene content (88.5 mg kg−1 f.w). were achieved through the application of organic fertilizer. Significantly higher total soluble solids and total soluble solids to titratable acidity ratio in organically grown tomatoes are particularly important to the processing tomato industry. Finally, the highest lycopene content produced under organic fertilization as well as the non-significant difference between the organic and conventional tomatoes in terms of lycopene yield make organic processing tomatoes suitable for lycopene production.

Abstract:
Taste panel perception and preference of sweetness in three phenotypes (su, se and sh2) of sweet corn harvested at three maturities (early, mature and late) were compared to refractometer measurements and HPLC analysis of fructose, sucrose, and glucose. Panelist rating of sweetness and acceptability significantly correlated with HPLC analysis. These correlations were found for sucrose and total sugars present (for sweetness, r2 = 0.70 and 0.61; acceptability, r2 = 0.64 and 0.55). Sucrose significantly correlated with the total sugars present (r2 = 0.95). The panelists' perception of flavor also correlated significantly with the amount of sucrose present and total sugars (r2 = 0.66 and 0.59, respectively). Sucrose content was significantly different between se, sh2 and su, with sh2 having the highest level. Taste panels indicated this difference but showed not significant differnece between se and sh2 acceptablity. Su was only acceptable to panelists at early maturity. °Brix did not reflect the taste panels scores and HPLC measurements postively. Soluble solids and taste panel scores were negatively correlated in both the panel's perception of sweetness and acceptability (r2 = -0.66 and -0.66, respectively) which indicates that as panel scores decreased °Brix increased. Comparison of soluble solids to HPLC analysis, indicate that °Brix was negatively correlated to sucrose and total sugar content, and that as soluble solids increased, the sucrose or total sugar concentration remained constant or decreased. Soluble solids measurements have been positively correlated with sucrose levels in other crops; but this was not the case with sweet corn.

This study aimed to evaluate the physical and chemical quality of processed passion fruit and peach nectar flavors and sold in supermarkets in the city of Cuiaba-MT. We evaluated the physicochemical parameters total acidity, citric acid, pH, vitamin C content, soluble solids (° Brix) SS/acidity total, reducing and non-reducing and total carbohydrates, as the Institute Adolf Lutz standards. The mean values were subjected to analysis of variance and were submitted to the Scott-Knott test at 5% significance level. The total acidity (g.100g-1) to B and D showed statistically equal averages. However, passion fruit flavor of the brand B showed higher pH value (3.27 ± 0.02a). There was no statistically significant difference in soluble solids / titratable acidity (SS / TA) between the marks for the analyzed flavors. For vitamin C all values were below prescribed by legislation. For total soluble solids the average observed for the passion fruit flavor met the minimum established by legislation. However, for the peach flavor, the marks A and B showed lower values and they were smaller than the minimum values established by legislation. Regarding the parameter non-reducing sugar, the brand presented the biggest non-reducing sugar values for the flavors to analyzed. We concluded that not all analyzed parameters meet the current legislation. Vitamin C and soluble solids were below the established by legislation. There is no standard of identity and quality for non-reducing sugar as sucrose, so important parameter as a criterion of a healthy food.

Abstract:
The effect of preharvest CO2 enrichment (1000 μl·liter–1) on postharvest quality of tomato fruit (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. `Virosa') was studied with an emphasis on soluble sugars, ripening, and mineral composition. High-CO2 fruit had higher concentrations of sucrose, glucose, fructose, and total soluble solids than ambient-CO2 fruit. High-CO2 fruit also ripened more slowly and was characterized by lower respiration and ethylene production rates than ambient-CO2 fruit. Concentrations of N, P, and K were lower in the high-CO2 fruit than in the ambient-CO2 fruit, whereas those of S, Ca, and Mg were the same for both treatments. Preharvest CO2 enrichment of `Virosa' tomato enhances fruit desirability in terms of slower postharvest ripening and higher concentrations of soluble sugars and total soluble solids.

Abstract Eighteen physical and chemical variables were determined in 25 samples of commercial tomato products: total solids, soluble solids, water activity, lycopene, 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furfural, CIELab components (L, a, b, a/b, C, H), total acidity, sodium chloride, wet-weight pulp percentage, alcohol insoluble solids, total pectic substances, ascorbic acid, and pH. In order to maximize the variability of products, samples included crushed tomato, tomato puree, tomato paste, and heavy concentrates and were taken from Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, the United States, Mexico, Colombia, and Chile. Correlation analysis and multidimensional data analysis techniques (principal component analysis and hierarchical classifications) were used to describe the products' variability and to study the relationships among variables. Three variables were selected, with the aim of classifying the collection of samples in a way consistent with the classification obtained with the first principal components. These variables were soluble solids content, the CIELab lightness parameter L, and total pectic substances content.

Two trials were conducted to investigate the effects of total soluble solids, pH and Saccharomyces cerevisiae density on the quality of longan wine. Longan juice was added to sucrose and citric acid at different concentrations to attain samples of total soluble solid concentration and pH in the range of 21 - 25oBrix and 4.0 – 4.6. All the samples were innoculated with Saccharomyces cerevisiae (initial populations of yeast raging from 105- 107 cells/ml). The results showed that the oBrix of 23%, with a pH of 4.3 and yeast density of 106 cells/ml was ideal to be applied in longan winemaking. After 7 days of fermentation, the amount of total alcohol of the end product was 13.87%, with 2.69% reducing sugars remaining, a pH of 3.61, and oBrix of 6.22%. Sensoryevaluation was found to meet consumers demand for quality and also, the sulfur dioxide and methanol concentration of the wine met the Quality Standards in Vietnam (QCVN 6-3:2010/BYT).

Abstract:
Inheritance of fruit-related traits was studied in a population generated by crossing two heirloom pepper (Capsicum annuum) cultivars, Round of Hungary and Bulgarian carrot. Inheritance of corrugated pericarp phenotype of ‘Round of Hungary’ behaved as a recessive trait controlled by two genes while round fruit shape behaved as a single gene. Pungent cultivar Bulgarian carrot had significantly higher total soluble solids, titratable acidity, antioxidant activities, and significantly thinner pericarp than fruit of Round of Hungary. Pericarp thickness was related to differences in both cell number and cell size. Analyses of F2 fruit indicated that fruit weight was positively correlated (P < 0.01) to fruit width and pericarp thickness. Fruit width was negatively correlated (P < 0.01) to fruit length and total soluble solids and positively correlated (P < 0.01) to pericarp thickness. Yellow color was negatively correlated (P < 0.05) to total soluble solids. Fruit length showed high inbreeding depression and transgressive segregation. Color measurements showed that yellow was correlated to lightness, and the relationships between red and yellow color spaces and carotenoid composition were complex.

Abstract:
In Florida, pounds soluble solids per box (% soluble solids × % juice × weight) can be 60% higher in some years compared to the lowest years. Pounds solids, soluble solids and juice content data were obtained for the different citrus growing districts in Florida for a 20-year period from the USDA and Florida Agricultural Statistics Service. Weather data for each district was obtained from US National Weather Service records. Total rainfall and average daily temperature were calculated for 2–month periods from prior to the normal bloom period until harvest. Juice data was regressed against weather data and the previous years pounds solids using a stepwise multiple regression program. R2 values for early oranges, `Marsh Seedless' grapefruit and `Valencia' were 0.48, 0.48 and 0.72, respectively. Prebloom and bloom rainfall and temperatures were frequently positively correlated, while summer rainfall often was a negatively correlated independent variable to final pounds solids.

Abstract:
Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) can be used for the on-line, non-invasive assessment of fruit for eating quality attributes such as total soluble solids (TSS). The robustness of multivariate calibration models, based on NIRS in a partial transmittance optical geometry, for the assessment of TSS of intact rockmelons (Cucumis melo) was assessed. The mesocarp TSS was highest around the fruit equator and increased towards the seed cavity. Inner mesocarp TSS levels decreased towards both the proximal and distal ends of the fruit, but more so towards the proximal end. The equatorial region of the fruit was chosen as representative of the fruit for near infrared assessment of TSS. The spectral window for model development was optimised at 695–1045 nm, and the data pre-treatment procedure was optimised to second-derivative absorbance without scatter correction. The ‘global’ modified partial least squares (MPLS) regression modelling procedure of WINISI (ver. 1.04) was found to be superior with respect to root mean squared error of prediction (RMSEP) and bias for model predictions of TSS across seasons, compared with the ‘local’ MPLS regression procedure. Updating of the model with samples selected randomly from the independent validation population demonstrated improvement in both RMSEP and bias with addition of approximately 15 samples.

Abstract:
This study aimed to estimate the predicted genetic gains with the simultaneous selection of yield traits and soluble solids content in cherry tomato hybrids. Twenty cherry tomato hybrids were evaluated in hydroponic cultivation in randomized block design with three replicates. The following traits were evaluated: number of clusters per plant, number of flowers per cluster, number of fruits per cluster, number of fruits per plant, fruit weight, fruit yield per plant, and total soluble solids content. The parameters of heritability, experimental cv, and genotypic cv were estimated. Subsequently, selection gains by direct selection and Mulamba and Mock index were estimated. Direct selection of cherry tomato hybrids for fruit yield and soluble solids content is inefficient because selection based on one of these traits will provide undesirable gains in the other. However, simultaneous selection for yield and taste quality is possible based on the Mulamba and Mock index because the methodology provided high selection gains for both yield and soluble solids content.

Abstract:
Abstract. Chutney is a native Indian processed product, made from cuts of fruits or vegetables and nuts cooked in a sweet, sour and spice mixture. The quality requirements of chutney are influenced by the use of raw materials herbs and spices. The purpose of this study was to determine the response of three varieties of mango and its interaction with concentration of apple vinegar towards physicochemical characteristics of mango chutney. The experimental design of this study used a nested design with two factors. The first factor was three varieties of mango consisting of podang mango, gadung, and kweni and the second factor was the concentration of apple vinegar (5%: 10%: 15%).Parameters analyzed were moisture content, ash content, vitamin C, total soluble solids, total titrated acids, pH, crude fiber, antioxidant activity, color intensity, topicality and hedonic test (flavor, aroma, and appearance). The study showed that differences in mango varieties and apple vinegar concentration did not interact with moisture content, ash content, total soluble solids, total titrated acids, vitamin C, crude fiber, antioxidant activity, pH, color intensity, topicality and hedonic test. The differences in mango varieties significantly affected on water content, color intensity (L and a+), topicality, and hedonic test, whereas the difference of apple vinegar concentration had no significant effect on ash content, pH, total soluble solids, total titrated acids, vitamin C, crude fiber, and antioxidant activity. The optimum composition based on De Garmo test chutney made from gadung mango and 5% apple vinegar (G2C1) with moisture content 23,50 %, ash content 3,15 % vitamin C 0,10 %, total titrated acid 0,75 %, crude fiber 7,05 %, total soluble solids 4,60 ºbrix, ph 4,31 %, antioxidant activity 93,67 %, colour intensity: lightness (L) 36,13, redness (a+ ) 4,67 and yellowness ( b+) 10,00, Topicality 10,67 cm, and hedonic test : appearance 2,13 %, aroma 3,30 % and flavor 2,97 %.

Abstract:
This study aimed to evaluate postharvest quality of Tommy Atkins mangoes treated with starch cassava and chitosan based coatings. Mango fruits were collected at physiological maturity. After cleaning, weighing and identification, fruits were submitted to the respective treatments and stored for 35 days in the Laborat&oacute;rio de Tecnologia de Alimentos, with weekly evaluations under refrigeration 13&plusmn;1 &ordm;C and 90&plusmn;5% RH. The experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design, in factorial scheme with four treatments: control, cassava starch (CS), chitosan (CH), and cassava starch/chitosan (CS/CH) at a concentration of 2%, and six storage periods (0, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35 days) with four replications. Fruits were evaluated in: appearance, weight loss, external color: luminosity and &Delta;E, pulp firmness, titratable acidity, soluble solids content, starch, total soluble sugars, reducing sugars and sucrose. Data were submitted to analysis of variance using SISVAR software and compared by Scott-Knott test at 5% of probability. It was observed a reduction in appearance, pulp firmness, titratable acidity, starch and reducing sugars and increase in weight loss, luminosity, &Delta;E, soluble solids, total soluble sugars and non-reducing sugars during storage. CS/CH coated fruits reported higher notes of appearance, lower weight loss and maintained color. Quality of physicochemical attributes: soluble solids, starch, total soluble sugars, reducing sugars and non-reducing sugars were strongly retarded.

Abstract:
Research is needed to better understand the influence of cell volume and fertility on watermelon transplant size and field performance in order to determine the most economic production practices. `Jubilee' watermelon transplants were grown using a 4 x 4 factorial experimental design consisting of 4 cell volumes (30.7, 65.5, 147.5, and 349.6 cm3) and 4 fertility rates (0, 1/4, 1/2, and full-strength Hoagland's solution). Transplant shoot dry weight significantly increased as cell volume and fertility increased. Increasing cell volume linearly increased watermelon number/ha and tons/ha for early and total harvest in 1995. The average weight per watermelon significantly increased for early-harvested fruit but not for total harvest as cell volume increased in 1995. Soluble solids concentration linearly increased with increasing cell volume for early and total harvests in 1995. Cell volume had no significant influence on the harvest parameters measured in 1997. In 1995, increasing fertility linearly increased watermelon number/ha and tons/ha for early harvests. Increasing fertility increased the soluble solids concentration linearly for early-harvested watermelons in 1997 but not in 1995. Fertility rate had no significant influence on any of the other harvest parameters measured in 1995 and 1997. The growing conditions and disease pressure in 1997 reduced melons/ha, yield, and soluble solids content when compared to 1995 values. The half-strength Hoagland's solution produced the greatest number of watermelons/ha, tons/ha, and the highest soluble solids concentration in 1995 and 1997. Pretransplant nutritional conditioning had no significant effect on total `Jubilee' watermelon production in Louisiana for 1995 and 1997.

Abstract:
Seven winter and five summer vegetables produced under organic and conventional systems were collected from a supermarket seven times between January and April and between July and October for winter and summer vegetables, respectively, and their ascorbic acid and total phenolic content (compounds with proven antioxidant activity) as well as total antioxidant capacity, soluble solids and nitrates were determined. The results clearly indicated that, from the three factors studied (vegetable species, cropping system and sampling time), vegetable species made the highest contribution to ascorbic acid, phenolics, antioxidant capacity, soluble solids and nitrates. Results for each vegetable species showed that most organic vegetables appear to have lower nitrate content, some have higher phenolics, antioxidant capacity and soluble solids, and only few have higher ascorbic acid compared with conventional vegetables. The significance of the differences in nutritional and antioxidant value between organic and conventional vegetables is questionable, since vegetable species and sampling time can affect their nutritional value to a great or greater extent than the cropping system.

Abstract:
Advanced lines and backcrosses from interspecific hybridization of processing tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) with six L. chmielewskii (Rick, Kesicki, Fobes and Holle) and L. cheesmanii (Riley) accessions were evaluated in the field over 2 yr for soluble solids content (SSC), total solids content (TSC), fruit yield and fruit size to determine the effectiveness of combining elevated solids levels with high fruit yield and size following early generation selection. More than a quarter of the lines had significantly higher SSC levels than the recurrent tomato parent, Purdue 812 (P812). Several lines combined high SSC and TSC with high fruit yield and large fruit size to produce more dry matter yield per hectare or per fruit than P812. Two backcrosses were optimal for combining high SSC and high yield. SSC and TSC were negatively correlated with fruit size and, to a lesser degree, with fruit yield. Key words: Lycopersicon esculentum, soluble solids, total solids
