17、 of Agricultural Sciences（CAAS） and the University of Florida identified the chemical combinations and genetic recipe for better tomato flavor（味道）.“In recent years, consumers often complain that the modern tomato is less flavorful than it once was” said co-principal researcher Sanwen Huang. “Our res

18、ults provide a practical road map for breeding tomato varieties with better flavor.”For the study, a 170-person consumer group was created to evaluate 160 tomatoes representing 101 varieties, based on qualities such as “overall liking” and “flavor degree”. The results pointed to dozens of chemical c

19、ompounds of interest, and further research using a statistical model discovered 33 flavor compounds connected with consumer liking, such as glucose（葡萄糖）. The reason why modern tomatoes dont taste good anymore is that a total of 13 of these flavor-associated compounds “were significantly reduced in m
