Changes of Polymethoxylated Flavones Levels during Development ofCitrus aurantium(cv. Sevillano) Fruits

Abstract
The production of nobiletin, sinensetin, quercetogetin, heptamethoxyflavone and tangeretin by Citrus aurantium (cv. Sevillano) fruits is described. The levels of these compounds were examined by high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The results suggest that the highest levels of these polymethoxylated flavones were associated with young developing states in fruits and that they were located in the peel.
