本研究以新疆紫色芜菁与绿色芜菁(Brassica rapa var. rapa)为研究对象,结合超高效液相色谱(UPLC)和串联质(MS/MS)技术,对不同皮色芜菁果肉、果皮中花青苷进行分析鉴定。紫色芜菁与绿色芜菁中含有14种相同的花青苷,不同芜菁品种不同部位...本研究以新疆紫色芜菁与绿色芜菁(Brassica rapa var. rapa)为研究对象,结合超高效液相色谱(UPLC)和串联质(MS/MS)技术,对不同皮色芜菁果肉、果皮中花青苷进行分析鉴定。紫色芜菁与绿色芜菁中含有14种相同的花青苷,不同芜菁品种不同部位,花青苷含量不一致,表皮中含有的花青苷种类较多,果肉中含有的花青苷种类较少。不同皮色的芜菁品种在果肉中均含松香花青素O-己糖苷与松香苷3-O-葡萄糖苷。不同品种芜菁表皮中含有差异显著花青苷代谢物数目为8个,果肉中含有差异显著花青苷代谢物数目为5个;紫色芜菁果肉与绿色芜菁表皮花青素代谢物的相关系数为0.989 7;紫色芜菁表皮与绿色芜菁表皮花青素代谢物的相关系数为0.927 3。本研究完成花青苷代谢物的鉴定分析,明确紫色芜菁块根中花青素的分布,揭示新疆芜菁中花青苷类物质的组成差异与积累特性,这为揭示新疆芜菁中花青苷的合成与积累的分子机制和培育富含花青苷的芜菁新品种提供一定的理论基础。展开更多
