Abstract
Alkaloids are the main medicinal components in Houttuynia cordata. In this study, two accessions 6# and 7# of H. cordata underwent thorough metabolomic analyses to identify and quantify alkaloid phytometabolites. It turned out that the alkaloid types were largely similar between 6# and 7#, and the identified 81 alkaloids could be divided into nine structural classes. However, the content of alkaloids in the two accessions was quite different. According to transcriptome data, a total of 114 differentially expressed genes related to alkaloid metabolism were screened. The alkaloid synthesis pathway of the two varieties was mainly different in the isoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis and indole alkaloid biosynthesis; four genes A22110063c_transcript_59323, A22110063c_transcript_60118, A22110063c_transcript_51672 and A22110063c_transcript_48784 were highly expressed in 7#, which could be key candidate genes of alkaloid metabolism and warrant further analysis. These results provide a reference for the medicinal application of H. cordata and breeding alkaloid rich varieties.

Molecules 2023; 28:7879. [PMID: 38067608 PMCID: PMC10708075 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28237879] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2023] [Revised: 11/08/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and flavor characteristics of Rosa roxburghii Tratt. (RR) and Rosa sterilis (RS) were analyzed using headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS). The flavor network was constructed by combining relative odor activity values (ROAVs), and the signature differential flavor components were screened using orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) and random forest (RF). The results showed that 61 VOCs were detected in both RR and RS: 48 in RR, and 26 in RS. There were six key flavor components (ROAVs ≥ 1) in RR, namely nonanal, ethyl butanoate, ethyl hexanoate, (3Z)-3-hexen-1-yl acetate, ethyl caprylate, and styrene, among which ethyl butanoate had the highest contribution, whereas there were eight key flavor components (ROAVs ≥ 1) in RS, namely 2-nonanol, (E)-2-hexenal, nonanal, methyl salicylate, β-ocimene, caryophyllene, α-ionone, and styrene, among which nonanal contributed the most to RS. The flavor of RR is primarily fruity, sweet, green banana, and waxy, while the flavor of RS is primarily sweet and floral. In addition, OPLS-DA and RF suggested that (E)-2-hexenal, ethyl caprylate, β-ocimene, and ethyl butanoate could be the signature differential flavor components for distinguishing between RR and RS. In this study, the differences in VOCs between RR and RS were analyzed to provide a basis for further development and utilization.

Sun Y, Li M, Li X, Du J, Li W, Lin Y, Zhang Y, Wang Y, He W, Chen Q, Zhang Y, Wang X, Luo Y, Xiong A, Tang H. Characterization of Volatile Organic Compounds in Five Celery ( Apium graveolens L.) Cultivars with Different Petiole Colors by HS-SPME-GC-MS. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:13343. [PMID: 37686147 PMCID: PMC10488006 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241713343] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/24/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Celery (Apium graveolens L.) is an important vegetable crop cultivated worldwide for its medicinal properties and distinctive flavor. Volatile organic compound (VOC) analysis is a valuable tool for the identification and classification of species. Currently, less research has been conducted on aroma compounds in different celery varieties and colors. In this study, five different colored celery were quantitatively analyzed for VOCs using HS-SPME, GC-MS determination, and stoichiometry methods. The result revealed that γ-terpinene, d-limonene, 2-hexenal,-(E)-, and β-myrcene contributed primarily to the celery aroma. The composition of compounds in celery exhibited a correlation not only with the color of the variety, with green celery displaying a higher concentration compared with other varieties, but also with the specific organ, whereby the content and distribution of volatile compounds were primarily influenced by the leaf rather than the petiole. Seven key genes influencing terpenoid synthesis were screened to detect expression levels. Most of the genes exhibited higher expression in leaves than petioles. In addition, some genes, particularly AgDXS and AgIDI, have higher expression levels in celery than other genes, thereby influencing the regulation of terpenoid synthesis through the MEP and MVA pathways, such as hydrocarbon monoterpenes. This study identified the characteristics of flavor compounds and key aroma components in different colored celery varieties and explored key genes involved in the regulation of terpenoid synthesis, laying a theoretical foundation for understanding flavor chemistry and improving its quality.
