“…A slight increase in weight was primarily due to significant seed development, as the seed/pericarp weight increased from 0.77 to 0.94. In addition, the Z. schinifolium fruit oil vacuole bulged obviously and featured accumulated inclusions, which could be used for commercial picking and eating (Wenkai et al ., 2021). At early mature stages (P100, P115), the pericarp colour changed from dark green (P70, P85) to bright green.…”

The nutritional, flavour and metabolite properties of Zanthoxylum schinifolium in 10-145 days postanthesis (P10-P145) were comprehensively investigated. With increasing maturity, fruit volume and weight significantly increased, moisture content decreased. Amino acids in Z. schinifolium are mainly composed of arginine, proline, tryptophan and glutamic acid. Total amino acid content reached the highest level of 31.153 mg/g at P130. Total phenols and flavonoids contents reached the highest level at P100. The content of sanshool and volatile oil reached the highest level of 123.76 mg/g and 12.79 mL/100 g, respectively, at P100 and P115. In addition, linalool, as the characteristic aroma component of Z. schinifolium, was the most abundant at P100. Z. schinifolium at P100 is considered to be the most edible and economic value. P100 is therefore considered to be the suitable picking stage for consumption and processing of Z. schinifolium. Meanwhile, metabolomics is performed to quickly identify the maturity of Z. schinifolium in this study. The present results can be used to optimise harvest timing and promote the development of Z. schinifolium industry.

“…Native to China and widely distributed across East Asia, prickly ash is an aromatic plant belonging to the Zanthoxylum genus in the Rutaceae family (Wenkai et al ., 2021). Due to its unique flavour, numbing taste and health effects, prickly ash is a popular medicinal and edible homologous plant around the world (Ji et al ., 2019).…”

“…They are the most numerous species in the TPS-a and TPS-b subfamilies and are broadly similar to the number of TPS genes identified in Cannabis sativa . However, there have been no comprehensive or systematic studies of the Cannabis sativa TPS gene family[ [ 45 , 46 ]]. This research involved identifying and analyzing the TPS gene family in Cannabis sativa, enhancing our comprehension of the CsTPSs gene's function.…”
