Abstract:Ediblemaize is an important food crop, providing energy and nutrients to meet human health and nutritional requirements. However, how environmental pressures and human activity have shaped the ediblemaizemetabolome remains unclear.In this study, we collected 452 diverse edible maize accessions worldwide, comprising waxy, sweet and field maize. A total of 3020 non-redundant metabolites, including 802 annotated metabolites, were identified by a two-step optimized approach, which generated the most comprehensive … Show more
