Derivation: LARANJE (=orange fruit Port.).
Location: Bahia, Brazil.

Bartley, 1993a [BAR93A]. Fruit - round.

Notes:  Lockwood & Gyamfi, 1979 [LOC79A] Mutation with irregular flowers and round fruit.

Bartley, 1993a [BAR93A]. This may have several sources:

1) mutant occurring in Sao Tome which Chevalier called Theobroma sphaerocarpum,

2) variety in Brazil,

3) plants found with similar fruits.

The variety TOMATE in Brazil may be the same genotype (renamed by Vello).
