Figure 1: Phytochemical analysis of the methanolic extracts of fruits of AtMYB12-expressing tomato transgenic lines.

(a) Mature wild type (WT-TOM) and transgenic (MYB12-TOM) tomato fruits. (b) Content of individual compounds was quantified by separating methanolic extracts of WT and transgenic lines using HPLC. Quantification of CGA and rutin were carried out by using non-hydrolyzed extract while quercetin and kaempferol were quantified by carried out acid-hydrolyzed methanolic extract. (b) Measurement of total antioxidant activity using methanolic extracts. Graph has been plotted by Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC). The graph shows Mean ± SD of three samples from each of the independent transgenic line. The photograph was taken by AP.
