Fatty acids and physiological quality of tomatillo (Physalis philadelphica Lam.) seed during natural ageing
In México, 44 thousand hectares are planted with tomatillo or husk tomato (Physalis philadelphica Lam.), which occupies fourth place among the country’s vegetable species. However, research on this species is scarce, especially that related to the process of seed deterioration. We studied...
