“…Pollen parents have a direct genetic in uence on F 1 seeds in some plants (Denney, 1992;Kanade et al, 2024). They in uence sugar content and enzymes for secondary metabolites in palm fruit (Shahsavar and Shahhosseini, 2022) and yield and anthocyanin content in highbush blueberry (Doi et al, 2021).…”

Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) is a heterostylous self-incompatible crop that requires outcrossing for seed formation. Pollen parents influence the traits of seeds in many plants, but their influence in buckwheat is unknown. Here, we crossed self-incompatible (SI) and self-compatible (SC) lines with different rutin contents. The average rutin contents of SI leading cultivars were all 0.15–0.21 mg/g, and a SI high rutin content line that we had developed was 0.6 mg/g, although it has wide range SDs (0.12–0.41). On the other hand, the average rutin contents of SC lines were 0.01–0.06 mg/g, with stable SDs (0.02–0.03). In crosses between high- and low-rutin parents, the average rutin content of F1 seeds was significantly lower than that of the high-rutin parent and higher than that of the low-rutin parent, indicating that the pollen parent influences the rutin content in seeds of buckwheat. RNA-seq analysis confirmed that alleles of several genes encoding enzymes involved in rutin synthesis derived from pollen parents were expressed during seed formation.
