Abstract
Microwave technology offers a rapid and uniform heating method. This study investigated how microwave pretreatment affects the aroma precursors and flavor of fragrant rapeseed oils (FROs). Microwave pretreatment led to decreased levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids, sugars, protein-bound amino acids, and glucosinolates. Using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, we identified 66 volatile compounds in the oil samples. Among these, based on odor activity values (OAV ≥ 1), we found 9 aldehydes, 1 ketone, 6 pyrazines, 1 isothiocyanate, and 7 nitriles as the key aroma-active compounds, contributing fatty-like, nutty-like, and pungent-like odors, respectively. The electronic nose results highlighted W5S and W1W as primary sensors for determining the flavor profiles of FROs. Notably, aroma-active pyrazines exhibited strong negative correlations with sucrose, cysteine, lysine, and isoleucine. This research provides essential insights for enhancing the aroma of FROs.

Abstract
The characteristic aroma compounds of Chinese steamed bread (CSB) fermented with different starters were studied using HS-SPME-GC/MS, aroma recombination and omission experiments. The dynamic changes of the microbiota and their function and metabolites during fermentation were analyzed using metagenomics and non-targeted metabolomics. Forty-nine volatile flavor compounds were identified, while 5 characteristic aroma-active compounds were investigated in CSB fermented with commercial dry yeast (AQ-CSB), and 10 were investigated in CSB fermented with traditional starter (NY-CSB). Microbial structure and function analysis showed that Saccharomyces cerevisiae dominated during AQ-CSB fermentation and contributed >95% to its KEGG pathways, while Pediococcus pentosaceus, unclassified Pediococcus, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus brevis and unclassified Lactobacillus were predominant in NY-CSB and together had an ~96% contribution to these pathways. NY-CSB showed higher metabolic activity during fermentation, and the characteristic metabolites were mainly involved in carbohydrate, amino acid and lipid metabolism. The characteristic aroma compounds were identified and increased the understanding of the contributions of the microbiota. This may be useful for designing starter cultures that produce CSB with desirable aroma properties.

Abstract
As one of the most important vegetables and oils consumed globally, cruciferous foods are appreciated for their high nutritional value. However, there is no comprehensive knowledge to sufficiently unravel the "flavor mystery" of cruciferous foods. The present review provides a comprehensive literature on the recent advances regarding the contribution of glucosinolates (GSL) degradation products to cruciferous foods odor, which focuses on key GSL degradation products contributing to distinct odor of cruciferous foods (Brassica oleracea, Brassica rapa, Brassica napus, Brassica juncea, Raphanus sativus), and key factors affecting GSL degradation pathways (i.e., enzyme-induced degradation, thermal-induced degradation, chemical-induced degradation, microwave-induced degradation) during different processing and cooking. A total of 93 volatile GSL degradation products (i.e., 36 nitriles, 33 isothiocyanates, 3 thiocyanates, 5 epithionitriles, and 16 sulfides) and 29 GSL (i.e., 20 aliphatic, 5 aromatic, and 4 indolic) were found in generalized cruciferous foods. Remarkably, cruciferous foods have a distinctive pungent, spicy, pickled, sulfur, and vegetable odor. In general, isothiocyanates are mostly present in enzyme-induced degradation of GSL and are therefore often enriched in fresh-cut or low-temperature, short-time cooked cruciferous foods. In contrast, nitriles are mainly derived from thermal-induced degradation of GSL, and are thus often enriched in high-temperature, long-time cooked cruciferous foods.

Abstract
The physicochemical properties, fatty acid composition and volatile aroma compounds of cold-pressed passion fruit seed oils were analyzed. The oils were rich in linoleic acid, oleic acid and volatile compounds. A total of 108 volatile compounds including 17 aldehydes, 23 alcohols, 21 esters, 19 ketones, 6 acids, 9 alkenes, 5 pyrazines and 8 others were identified using HS-GC-IMS. The significant differences of volatile compounds in the purple and yellow passion fruit seed oils were observed via the GalleryPlot graph and distinguished by principal component analysis. The results showed that acids, alcohols, esters and ketones were major aromatic compounds in purple passion fruit seed oils, which contribute to flavors such as flowery, fruity, creamy, yogurt. Whereas the contents of aldehydes, pyrazines, alkenes were higher in yellow passion fruit seed oils, which contributes to fatty and nutty odors. The findings filled in our understanding of volatilization characteristics in passion fruit seed oils.

Abstract
The pile-up processing has a great impact on the flavor of white tea. To investigate the effects of the volatile accumulation of white tea with different piling thickness treatments, tea leaves from different thickness treatments were subjected to sensory quantitative description analysis and ATD-GC-MS detection in this study. As a result, 122 volatile components were identified from white tea with different treatments. A total of 8 key compounds, including isovaleraldehyde, isobutyraldehyde, 2-methyl-butanal, 1-octene-3-ol, linalool, pentanoic acid, hexanal and 1-hexanol were screened out using multivariate statistical analysis, which were characteristic components of grassy, floral-fruity, pekoe aroma and sweet flavors. The results of the selected key characteristic volatile compounds were consistent with the sensory quantitative description. The aroma of mid-pile dried tea (MD) was exhibited a harmonious and pleasant overall flavor. This study provides a novel insight into the accumulation of volatile during the withering step of white tea production.

Abstract
Hot-pressed rapeseed oils with pleasant flavor, i.e., fragrant rapeseed oils, are favored by consumers, especially people from the southwest provinces of China. Although degumming is an important section in producing edible rapeseed oils, conventional degumming techniques are generally suffered from disadvantages such as moisture control, and large losses of micronutrients and flavors. In the present paper, hot-pressed rapeseed oils were treated with silica hydrogel to remove their gums, and changes in phospholipids, acid values, peroxide values, tocopherols, total phenols, and flavor compounds were analyzed to compare the silica hydrogel-degumming with conventional methods. The optimized conditions were suggested to be carried out at 45°C for 15 min, and the silica hydrogel dosage was 1.10%. More than 97.00% of phospholipids were removed after the degumming, and more than 85.00% of micronutrients, were retained in the treated oils. The degumming efficiency was therefore significantly higher than those operated by conventional acid degumming and soft degumming techniques. It was found that the dosage of the silica hydrogel significantly affected the removal rate of phospholipids compared with degumming time and temperature. There were nearly typical volatile compounds found in the rapeseed oils, while most of them kept almost stable after the silica hydrogel-degumming. In this regard, silica hydrogel adsorption exhibited little effect on volatile compounds, making it more suitable for the production of fragrant rapeseed oils.

Abstract
Gray sufu is a traditional fermented bean product with strong flavor in China, but traditional fermentation methods often lead to its off-flavor. This study was performed to investigate the flavor quality characteristics of gray sufu fermented using L. mesenteroides F24. Results showed 220 volatile compounds in gray sufu, among which alcohols and esters were the main volatiles. Inoculation with L. mesenteroides F24 considerably affected the contents of flavor substances in gray sufu and substantially increased the main flavor compounds. In addition, 29 kinds of key volatile compounds were identified by analyzing the ROAVs. Four unique key flavor substances were found in gray sufu inoculated with L. mesenteroides F24. This study is the first report on the feasibility of L. mesenteroides F24 as a promising starter culture to improve the flavor quality of gray sufu. The results provide a theoretical basis for improving the processing and quality control of gray sufu.

Abstract
Rapeseed oil, as one of the three major vegetable oils in the world, its matrix effect makes the decoding flavor a challenge. Solid-phase microextraction (SPME), SPME-Arrow, headspace stir bar sorptive extraction (HSSE), direct thermal desorption (DTD), and solvent-assisted flavor evaporation (SAFE) were compared based on the odorants in hot-pressed rapeseed oil. Besides, methodological validation for 31 aroma standards was conducted to compare reliability and robustness of these approaches. DTD showed the largest proportion of acids, while the other techniques extracted a majority of nitriles. The highest number of odorants was detected by SAFE (31), followed by HSSE (30), SPME-Arrow (30), SPME (24), and DTD (14). SPME-Arrow showed the best performance in linearity, recovery, and reproducibility followed by SPME, HSSE, DTD, and SAFE. Results reveal the advantages and limitations of diverse methodologies and provide valuable insights for the selection of extraction methods in an oil matrix and flavor decoding.

Abstract
Glucosinolates (GSLs), found mainly in species of the Brassicaceae family, are one of the most well-studied classes of secondary metabolites. Produced by the action of myrosinase on GSLs, GSL-derived hydrolysis products (GHPs) primarily defend against biotic stress in planta. They also significantly affect the quality of crop products, with a subset of GHPs contributing unique food flavors and multiple therapeutic benefits or causing disagreeable food odors and health risks. Here, we explore the potential of these bioactive functions, which could be exploited for future sustainable agriculture. We first summarize our accumulated understanding of GSL diversity and distribution across representative Brassicaceae species. We then systematically discuss and evaluate the potential of exploited and unutilized genes involved in GSL biosynthesis, transport, and hydrolysis as candidate GSL engineering targets. Benefiting from available information on GSL and GHP functions, we explore options for multifunctional Brassicaceae crop ideotypes to meet future demand for food diversification and sustainable crop production. An integrated roadmap is subsequently proposed to guide ideotype development, in which maximization of beneficial effects and minimization of detrimental effects of GHPs could be combined and associated with various end uses. Based on several use-case examples, we discuss advantages and limitations of available biotechnological approaches that may contribute to effective deployment and could provide novel insights for optimization of future GSL engineering.
