Abstract:

In order to explore the key genes and metabolic pathways regulating floral aroma during the development of ‘Rose rugosa cv. Plena’, transcriptome and metabolome sequencing were performed on the samples at different development stages of flowers. The 4435, 2444, 7021 and 4123 differentially expressed genes in the comparison of flower bud stage, early opening stage, half opening stage, full opening stage and falling stage respectively were detected via transcriptomics analysis, of which 214 were differentially expressed genes in five stages. A total of 508 metabolites and 230 differential metabolites were detected by metabonomics. There were significant differences in metabolites at different developmental stages, and the metabolites were divided into 4 clusters. The 58 differentially expressed genes and 11 differentially expressed metabolites were found in the analysis of synthetic pathways of phenylpropanoid and terpene in ‘Rosa rugosa’. Combined with transcriptome and metabolome analysis, the genes and volatile substances changed significantly during flower development. Monoterpenoids were formed in flower bud stage, volatiles gradually accumulated in half opening stage, and the release of metabolites decreased in falling stage. Typical rose aroma substances were mainly formed in half opening stage. Therefore, choosing the appropriate harvest time is conducive to the formation and retention of rose fragrance quality.
