Average (n ≥ 3; ± sd) concentration (μg g−1 fresh weight) of acid hydrolyzable pools of selected phenylpropanoids and flavonoids in fruits harvested at breaker plus 7 d. ND, not detectable (<0.5 μg g−1 FW). Asterisk denotes significant differences compared to the wild type (M82) with one-way ANOVA and Dunnett’s test (P < 0.05).
