文摘
Flavonols are products of the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway, which also give rise to anthocyaninsand condensed tannins in grapes. We investigated their presence in the berry skins of 91 grapevarieties (Vitis vinifera L.), in order to produce a classification based on the flavonol profile. Thepresence of laricitrin 3-O-galactoside and syringetin 3-O-galactoside in red grapes is reported herefor the first time. In red grapes, the main flavonol was quercetin (mean = 43.99%), followed by myricetin(36.81%), kaempferol (6.43%), laricitrin (5.65%), isorhamnetin (3.89%), and syringetin (3.22%). Inwhite grapes, the main flavonol was quercetin (mean = 81.35%), followed by kaempferol (16.91%)and isorhamnetin (1.74%). The delphinidin-like flavonols myricetin, laricitrin, and syringetin weremissing in all white varieties, indicating that the enzyme flavonoid 3',5'-hydroxylase is not expressedin white grape varieties. The pattern of expression of flavonols and anthocyanins in red grapes wascompared, in order to gain information on the substrate specificity of enzymes involved in flavonoidbiosynthesis.
