摘要
Abstract The surface color of cigar tobacco leaves (CTLs) is largely determined by the browning response and is one of the most important quality traits affecting consumer preferences. The physiological changes and metabolic network of browning in CTLs after harvest have not been reported. We investigated the molecular mechanism of browning in CTLs by comparing the physiological characteristics and metabolites of CTLs browning at five postharvest periods. Phenotypic traits and browning-related enzyme activity data indicated that the browning reaction was most intense at approximately 12 d when polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase activities reached their maximum. Postharvest CTLs polyphenols, polyacids, and carbon and nitrogen compounds were rapidly degraded during the yellowing phase, and the biosynthesis rate of polyphenols and carotenoids was greater than the degradation rate during the browning phase. Metabolomic analysis discovered 2027 metabolites that were annotated mainly to lipids and lipid-like molecules, organic acids and their derivatives, and organic heterocyclic components. Hierarchical cluster analysis discovered glutamate, serine, threonine, ornithine, and arginine as the major amino acids involved in the browning reaction. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis indicated that the metabolic pathways with important effects on enzymatic browning were phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, flavonoid biosynthesis, isoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis, phenylalanine metabolism, and linoleic acid metabolism. The metabolic pathway network was mined, and the main polyphenols involved in the browning reaction of CTLs were found to be cyanidin, rutin, caffeoylquinic acid, kaempferol, naringin, and neohesperidin. This study provides a reference for the browning physiology and metabolism network of postharvest CTLs. Graphical Abstract
