Anthocyanin composition and content in grape berry skin in Vitis germplasm
2008
The composition and content of anthocyanins were surveyed by HPLC-MS for assessing genotypic variation in berry skin of 110 grape cultivars, including 3 species and 5 interspecific hybrids. Twenty-nine anthocyanins were identified. For total anthocyanin content, Vitis vinifera and hybrids of Vitis labrusca and V. vinifera were low, and in general, wild species and rootstock were higher than interspecific hybrids, and wine grapes were higher than table grapes in the same species. As regards the composition of anthocyanins, malvidin-derivatives were the most abundant anthocyanins in the majority of germplasms. All anthocyanins were monoglucoside derivatives in V. vinifera, but all the other Vitis germplasms had both mono- and di-glucoside derivatives. Moreover, peonidin-derivatives and malvidin 3-O-glucoside were, respectively, main anthocyanins in table and wine grapes of V. vinifera. Via principal component analysis, the distribution of the cultivars in a scatter plot depended upon their total anthocyanins content, mono- and di-glucoside derivatives.
