Further experimentation with other cultivars will be needed to explain this result. Differential
increases in flavonol content corresponding to different cultivars
were reported by Luo and others (2008) in transgenic tomatoes by
expressing AtMYB12, resulting in approximately twice as much
rutin and Kaempferol rutinoside in the Micro Tom cultivar compared
with the Money Maker cultivar. The difference in flavonol
content between wild-type cultivars was greater than that between
transgenic cultivars (Luo and others 2008).
