Table 1.
Levels of selected flavonoid compounds in various transgenic and control tobacco. The data were determined by UPLC–MS. The content (mg/g, FW) of C, EC and procyanidin B2 were quantified according to the peak area based on the standards. All data are the mean values of three biological replicates
| Compound name | Levels (μg/g, FW) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CK (control) | CsLARc | CsLARc + AtPAP1 | AtPAP1 | |
| EC (C)–glycoside* | 60.3 | 415.6 | 1615.5 | 65.4 |
| Catechin | 1.19 | 7.64 | 38.08 | 1.46 |
| Epicatechin | 3.47 | 29.79 | 128.72 | 4.74 |
| PA-dimers (B2) | 0.74 | 0.32 | 0.88 | 1.09 |
| PA-trimers* | 20.31 | 8.92 | 10.52 | 25.1 |
The asterisk represents the substance for which we do not have the standards. So, the values represent the peak area
