OBS

La tomate McGregor possède dans son patrimoine génétique un gène supplémentaire qui ralentit son pourrissement. Cette tomate peut être cueillie mûre sans poser de problèmes de conservation. Les tomates «normales», elles, sont récoltées vertes puis mûries artificiellement (par un traitement à l'éthylène) afin d'éviter qu'elles ne s'abîment durant leur transport.
