Buckwheat contains an abundance of antioxidants such as polyphenols and is considered a functional food. Among polyphenols, flavonoids have multiple functions in various aspects of plant growth and in flower and leaf colors. Flavonoids have antioxidant properties, and are thought to prevent cancer and cardiovascular disease. Here, we summarize the flavonoids present in various organs and their synthesis in buckwheat. We discuss the use of this information to breed highly functional and high value cultivars.
