Potential Sweetening Agents of Plant Origin. II. Field Search for Sweet-Tasting Stevia Species

Field work in Paraguay, Peru, Colombia and Mexico, including field organoleptic tests and interviews, was carried out in search of sweet-tasting Stevia species. Results of such tests performed on at least 31 species, as well as ethnobotanical data on 9 species, are presented. The data obtained showe...

description Field work in Paraguay, Peru, Colombia and Mexico, including field organoleptic tests and interviews, was carried out in search of sweet-tasting Stevia species. Results of such tests performed on at least 31 species, as well as ethnobotanical data on 9 species, are presented. The data obtained showed that leaves of no other Stevia species studied possessed a potent sweet taste comparable to that of S. rebaudiana leaves. Since only 15% of the approximately 200 known species in this genus were investigated in this study, it is quite possible that further research may reveal additional sweet-tasting Stevia species.
