摘要:

【目的】 研究红肉葡萄及其自交后代果肉类黄酮的基因表达及代谢组分差异,解析类黄酮生物合成的代谢积累特征并提供转录调控线索,为提高葡萄果实类黄酮含量及培育葡萄新品种提供理论基础。【方法】 以红肉葡萄新种质‘钟山红玉’(ZSHY)和自交后代‘南19’(N19)、‘南30’(N30),以及‘玫瑰香’(MGX)为试验材料,设置ZSHY_vs_MGX、N30_vs_ZSHY、N19_vs_MGX和N30_vs_N19四个组别,进行果肉类黄酮靶向代谢组学和转录组学(RNA-seq)检测,通过富集分析鉴定类黄酮代谢物积累、合成关键基因以及转录调控的网络。【结果】 基于类黄酮靶向代谢组学技术,检测出104种表达差异的类黄酮代谢物,并鉴定出62种显著差异的核心类黄酮代谢物,其中‘ZSHY’和‘N19’中黄酮醇、黄烷醇等多数代谢物积累量显著高于‘N30’和‘MGX’。KEGG通路富集分析显示差异代谢物显著富集于类黄酮生物合成相关通路,特别是花青素苷、黄酮与黄酮醇生物合成途径。转录组学分析共筛选到758个差异表达基因(DEGs),显著富集于类黄酮、苯丙烷类生物合成等通路。进一步鉴定出30个核心差异表达的类黄酮合成关键结构基因,其表达模式与类黄酮代谢物积累趋势基本一致,即在‘ZSHY’和‘N19’中表达量高,在‘N30’和‘MGX’中表达量低。此外,筛选出22个与类黄酮合成结构基因显著相关的转录因子,主要包括WRKY、MYB、ERF等家族。【结论】 红肉葡萄与其自交后代间存在显著的类黄酮代谢差异,‘ZSHY’和‘N19’果肉中类黄酮的较高积累与其合成通路关键结构基因的高表达密切相关,且转录因子可能对类黄酮合成基因具有调控作用。

Abstract:

【Objective】 This study investigated differences in flavonoid-related gene expression and metabolite profiles in the flesh of red-fleshed grape berries and their self-pollinated progenies, aiming to elucidate the metabolic accumulation characteristics of flavonoid biosynthesis, and provide insights into transcriptional regulation, so as to lay a theoretical foundation for improving flavonoid contents in grape berries and breeding new grape varieties. 【Method】 The red-fleshed grape germplasm Zhongshanhongyu (ZSHY), its self-pollinated progenies Nan 19 (N19) and Nan 30 (N30), and Muscat (MGX) were used as materials. Four pairwise comparison groups (ZSHY_vs_MGX, N30_vs_ZSHY, N19_vs_MGX, and N30_vs_N19) were established for targeting flavonoid metabolomics alongside transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) of berry flesh. Enrichment analyses were subsequently conducted to characterize flavonoid metabolites accumulation, identify key structural genes, and dissect the transcriptional regulatory networks involved in flavonoid biosynthetic pathway. 【Result】 Based on targeted flavonoid metabolomics technology, a total of 104 differentially accumulated flavonoid metabolites were detected, and 62 core metabolites exhibiting significant differences were further identified. Notably, most flavonols and flavanols accumulated to substantially higher levels in ZSHY and N19 than in N30 and MGX. KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that these differential metabolites were predominantly enriched in flavonoid biosynthesis pathways, particularly responsible for anthocyanin, flavone, and flavonol biosynthesis. Transcriptome profiling identified 758 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), which were significantly overrepresented in flavonoid and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis pathways. Furthermore, 30 core DEGs directly involved in flavonoid biosynthesis were screened, whose expression patterns were broadly consistent with the metabolite accumulation profiles, showing high transcript abundance in ZSHY and N19, but low expression in N30 and MGX. In addition, 22 transcription factors (TFs) significantly correlated with flavonoid structural genes were identified, mainly belonging to the WRKY, MYB, and ERF families. 【Conclusion】 Significant differences existed in flavonoid metabolism between the red-fleshed grape and its self-pollinated progenies. The elevated flavonoid accumulation in the flesh of ZSHY and N19 was closely associated with the upregulation of the key structural genes in the flavonoid pathway, and the identified TFs might play important regulatory roles in this process.
