Lycopersicon pennellii Solanaceae

Chemical variety in the acylsugars known from the family is based upon the capacity of glucose to accommodate up to five acylating acids, while sucrose can accommodate up to six. Detailed chemical information on these compounds from various members of the family can be found in papers by King et al. (1988,1990) and Matsuzaki et al. (1989). In the case of compounds from L. pennellii, the acylating acids 

2-methylpropionate 2-MB = ditto for 2-methylbutanoate PAG = percentage acylglucoses among total acylsugars. 

The example from South America ranks among the most impressive searches for variation in the literature of chemical geography. Although it does not fit
