Abstract
ABSTRACT Seed germination of Tartary buckwheat is important for its biological generation of various nutrients. To investigate the nutrient differences during seed germination, the metabolic profiling and moisture status of Tartary buckwheat seed germination were quantitatively measured by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS) and NMR, respectively. The results showed water was predominantly in free status during the three stages of seed germination divided. Statistical analysis (PCA, OPLS-DA, KEGG) of 53 metabolites at different germination stages revealed the key metabolites of linoleic, flavonoid and phenylalanine biosynthesis during the seed germination. Furthermore, flavonoids biosynthesis was identified as the pathway with the largest difference significance at the second and third stages, while linoleic and phenylalanine metabolisms were screened out as the major pathways with most impact factors in the first and second and the third stage, respectively. The analysis provided valuable insights into the nutrient generation during Tartary buckwheat seeds germination.
期刊介绍:
Food and Agricultural Immunology is an international open access journal publishing original immunological research with applications in food, agricultural, environmental and veterinary science. Submissions describing the use of immunological techniques and methods are particularly welcomed.
The journal aims to expand our understanding of the interactions at the interface of food and immune systems including studies on:
-Development of diagnostic systems – all types of ligand-based assays, e.g. antibody, aptamer
-Application of ligand-based assays for the detection or identification of molecules of interest in food science, agricultural research, veterinary investigations and clinical systems relating to food allergy or sensitivity to agricultural chemicals
-Effects of food on the immune system
-Studies on allergy and allergic reactions
-Investigations into food allergies
-Development of allergen-free food systems
-Development of novel assay formats
-Applications of assay systems to the monitoring of food items in relation to safety and labelling
-Food quality issues, e.g. speciation, adulteration and contamination
-Comparisons between different analytical techniques
The journal publishes research and review articles and is essential reading for food scientists, immunologists and all those concerned with the interaction between food and immune systems.
