Quercetin Kaempferol
Quercetin and kaempferol are two flavonoid compounds frequently detected in cannabis samples across different genetic backgrounds. These polyphenolic molecules are secondary metabolites commonly associated with plant stress response and UV protection in the genus Cannabis. Lineage records and analytical studies suggest both compounds co-occur in certain chemotypes, particularly in lines selected for high-flavonoid profiles. Breeders interested in non-cannabinoid phytochemical diversity often monitor these markers during selection work. The biosynthetic pathways producing these flavonoids remain incompletely characterized in cannabis genetics literature.

Breeders working in ethnobotanical preservation and phytochemical-targeted crosses sometimes use flavonoid profiling as a secondary selection criterion alongside cannabinoid and terpene data. Stable accumulation of quercetin and kaempferol in offspring may indicate preserved or stabilized genetic architecture for phenolic compound production.
