Non‐targeted Metabolomic Profile of Fagus Sylvatica L. Leaves using Liquid Chromatography with Mass Spectrometry and Gas Chromatography with Mass Spectrometry

Abstract

This study provides a broad and relevant insight into the metabolic status of F. sylvatica leaves, and serves as a base for future studies on physiological and molecular mechanisms involved in biotic or abiotic stress.

Multiconstituent identification in root, branch, and leaf extracts of Juglans mandshurica using ultra high performance liquid chromatography with quadrupole time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry

“…These compounds showed similar fragmentation pattern with reference organic acids and were characterized by accurate analysis of their [M–H] − , [M+H] + , and [M+H–H 2 O] + ions. Five organic acids, six acyl quinic acid derivatives, one coumaroyl threonic acid , and one dimethyl ellagic acid pentoside were identified. Of these compounds, gallic acid (peak 6) and chlorogenic acid (peak 31) were undoubtedly identified by comparing with the corresponding reference compounds (Supporting Information Table S2).…”

“…Most of the identified compounds, including gallotannins [3,8,9,14], organic acids [14,26,39,40], naphthalene glycosides [41], tetralone glycosides [14,30], anthracene glycosides [16], and flavonoid glycosides [3,9,30], have been found in J. mandshurica. It is notable that ellagitannins, which was mainly found in the root extract and reportedly occurred in J. regia [45] and J. sigillata [46], had not been found in J. mandshurica before this study.…”

Antioxidant properties and detailed polyphenol profiling of European hornbeam (Carpinus betulus L.) leaves by multiple antioxidant capacity assays and high-performance liquid chromatography/multistage electrospray mass spectrometry

“…infestation, climatic adaptation, etc. ), which is another reason for the importance of their research as metabolomic indicators and biomarkers (Cadahía et al, 2015;Griesser et al, 2015).…”

Experimental Design and Sample Preparation in Forest Tree Metabolomics

“…In addition to the direct economic benefits provided by tree species, i.e., timber and non-timber products, gaming and tourism, forests have an immensurable ecological value, being the major determinants for water, oxygen, carbon, and energy balance and can be seen as a major opportunity to mitigate climate change effects [12], i.e., continued drought, increased soil and water salinization and acidification, and intensification of extreme temperatures [13]. In forest tree metabolomics research, most biological questions are indeed related to the responses towards the acclimation and adaptation to a permanently changing environment [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] as well as to the identification of potentially active components in tree species of pharmacological, agricultural, environmental, or industrial importance [27][28][29][30][31][32][33].…”
