Abstract
ABSTRACTColor changes of hot‐house grown tomatoes stored for periods up to 8 days at temperatures from 6–20°C were investigated. Color was measured by light transmission at two wave lengths (575 and 675 nm) and characterized by a definite color index. A dependence between the color index change, the temperature and the storage time was established. On the basis of this index an instruction for sorting hot‐house grown tomatoes was worked out. By means of this instruction the preferred market maturity of tomatoes can be determined and acceptable differences of tomatoes in one package achieved.
