And what if we accomplish the same end result through selective breeding, as is common today?
- UncleOxidant 4y agoIt seems highly unlikely that selective breeding would result in tomatoes that have significant levels of useful vitamin D.
- more_corn 4y agoI don’t find that unlikely at all. Tomatoes are very susceptible to improvement through selective breeding. Test for vitamin D each generation, plant seeds from the highest.
- JohnJamesRambo 4y agoTomatoes have 0.00 micrograms of vitamin D though.
- UncleOxidant 4y agoAnd as the article pointed out that's not actually vitamin D, but a precursor to vitamin D and most of that small amount is in the leaves not the fruit.
