Popis: The formation of soluble phenol compounds, including flavonols, was studied in winter (Erythrospermum, Lutescens 230, and R 47-28) and spring cultivars (Lada) of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The contents of soluble phenol compounds and flavonols were 1.8-2.6 and 0.5-1.3 mg/kg fresh weight, respectively. These results illustrate the similarity of phenol metabolism in leaves of winter and spring wheat cultivars. The exception was the cultivar R 47-28 that accumulated the maximum amount of phenol compounds (e.g., flavonols). In this cultivar the ratio of flavonols reached 50% of total soluble phenol content. In other cultivars, this parameter did not exceed 25-35%. The data indicate that the cultivar R 47-28 differs from other wheat cultivars in the metabolism of phenol compounds. The observed differences are probably related to genetic modifications of the cultivar R 47-28 during selection.
