Abstract

This study is focused on the selection analysis of high rutin contents in various buckwheat species and cultivars, such as Fagopyrum esculentum Moench. (Cultivars Lileya, Bilshovik, Rubra), F. tataricum G. (ssp. rotundatum (Bab) Krot. and ssp. tuberculatum Krot.), F. cymosum Meissn, and Fagopyrum giganteum Krot. Rutin contents in vegetative organs of plants showed good correlation with anthocyanins contents in vegetative organs of Rubra cultivar. The presence of anthocyanin’s contents in the vegetative organs of buckwheat can be a reliable genetic marker for screening plants with high content of rutin. In the third generation of selection process with the proposed selection method by us, a genetic line of Rubra cultivar with high rutin content in the vegetative mass has been obtained. The proposed method of selection based on the color visual assessment of plant parts of buckwheat which is correlated with anthocyanin contents. The color visual assessment of vegetative organs of buckwheat plants can be marker for selection buckwheat cultivars with high anthocyanin’s and rutin contents.
