Influence of growing environments on chemical and mineral constituents of tomato leaves and taste constituents of tomato fruits were studied. The results are as follows; l. Positive correlations were admitted between the content of potassium and the brix or the acidity of tomato fruits, 2. The GPT and the AMYL activity in leaves of tomato that produced fruits of the high sugar degree by the stress caused by water saving and high EC, were relatively high. 3. Even if brix of fruits was the same, about the acid degree was a little high and the glutamic acid was a half in the tomato harvested in winter compared with the one harvested in summer.
