are from three biological replicates .
(A) Profiles of flavonoids. Flavonoid glucosides are: L3,7G, luteolin 3,7-di-O-glucoside, Rutin, quercetin 3-O-
rutinoside; L3’,7G, luteolin 3’,7-di-O-glucoside; Vitexin, apigenin-8-C-glucoside; K3R7G, kaempferol 3-O-
rhamnoside 7-O-glucoside; Q3R, quercetin 3-O-rhamnoside; L4G, luteolin 4-O-glucoside; N7G, naringenin 7-O
glucoside; L4’,7G, luteolin 4’,7-O-diglucoside; and B7G, biochanin A 7-O-glucoside.
(B) Profiles of anthocyanins. P3G, pelargonidin 3-O-glucoside; P35G, pelargonidin 3,5-O-diglucoside, D3G,
delphinidin 3-O-glucoside; D35G, delphinidin 3,5-O-diglucoside.
Asterisks indicate where the flavonoid levels in mate2 mutants are statistically different (P < 0.05; two-paired t
test) from those in the corresponding null segregant plants (with a minimum of three biological replicates).

Supplemental Figure 19. Anthocyanin Levels in Seeds of Mature mate2 Mutants and Null
Segregant Controls.
Mature seeds from homozygous mate2 mutants (mate2-1Ho, mate2-2Ho, mate2-3 Ho, and mate2-4
Ho) and null segregant controls (mate2-1WT, mate2-2WT, mate2-3WT, and mate2-4 WT) were
analyzed for anthocyanins. Asterisks indicate that the anthocyanin levels in mate2 mutants are
statistically different (P < 0.05; two-paired t test) from those in the corresponding wild-type plants
(with a minimum of three biological replicates).

Notes:
nd: not detected; Malonyltransferase activity toward apigenin 7-O-glucoside (A7G) was set at
100 %, activity toward other compounds was compared with A7G. In MaT5 and MaT6 activity
assays, activity toward cyanidin 3-O-glucoside (Cy3G) was set at 100 %.
