Abstract excerpt
Sweetness is a main component of the table beet (Beta vulgaris L.) flavor profile and a key determinant of its market success for fresh consumption. Total dissolved solids (TDS) is a proxy for sugar content in produce and are easily measured through a refractometer, making TDS valuable in breeding programs focused on increasing sweetness. A diversity panel of 238 accessions from the Beta vulgaris crop complex and...
