to acid ratio observed in the cultivars investigated herein (Fig. 1)was in the lower range of values reported in other studies working with different cultivars (Giné Bordonaba and Terry, 2010). Inthis sense, slightly greater acid concentrations to those reported byCrespo et al. (2010) in conjunction with similar sugar values mayaccount for these findings and are probably the result of genotypicand agroclimatic differences between both studies. In contrast, thecalculated sweetness index (Table 2) was in the higher range ofvalues reported in other studies working with other cultivars from
