Abstract

carotene content and dry matter content in four varieties of carrots (Xinheitian,HERTAGE,XPH3910 and TEBE)during different stages were studied.The experiment suggested that with roots growing,the ratio (dry/fresh) kept on increasing as well as the dry matter content.And the increasing ratio of β carotene was based on different stages.More than 75% β carotene was synthesized during fleshy root growing after rosette stage.The result also showed that the period of rapid β carotene growth and the time to reach maximum content were different for different varieties,but all varieties could reach the maximum β carotene content at mature period.
