Flower flavonoids from interspecific hybrids between Rosa rugosa (section Rosa) and Rosa species of sections Synstylae (R. wichuraiana and R. multiflora), Pimpinellifoliae (R. foetida var. persiana) and Rosa (R. davurica) were analysed. The major flavonoids in R. rugosa petals were kaempferol (K) and/or quercetin (Q) 3-sophorosides. These flavonols were present in the petals of all intersectional hybrids.
