# Talk:Tomato

The tomato originated in Mesomerica, which is in Mexico and in North America, and not in South America. Your own page offers conflicting reports. 108.160.205.250 (talk) 13:45, 28 May 2025 (UTC)

Read it more carefully. The origin is stated to be western South America; it was then cultivated in Mexico and other places. Chiswick Chap (talk) 13:54, 28 May 2025 (UTC)

Mexico is a site of cultivation, not the botanical site of origin. Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:11, 31 May 2025 (UTC)
It's always very difficult with extensively cultivated crops to define what you mean by "origin" – is it the origin of the wild species, or where most of the domestication has occurred, i.e. the origin of the first cultivars? Sources suggest that for the tomato, both the wild and early domestic origin was in Western South America, perhaps specifically Peru. Peter coxhead (talk) 09:17, 31 May 2025 (UTC)

Could someone please fix this:
"flavor over ethlene-ripened tomatoes"
It's "ethylene".
Thanks
