Based on non-targeted metabolomics for differential components screening of Rosae Chinensis Flos and Rosae Rugosae Flos and their quality evaluation

Background:Rosa chinensis Jacq.and Rosa rugosa Thunb.are not only of ornamental value,but also edible flowers and the flower buds have been listed in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia as traditional medicines.The two plants have some differences in efficacy,but the flower buds are easily confused for similar traits.In addition,large-scale cultivation of ornamental rose flowers may lead to a decrease in the effective components of medicinal roses.Therefore,it is necessary to study the chemical composition and make quality evaluation of Rosae Chinensis Flos(Yueji)and Rosae Rugosae Flos(Meigui).Methods:In this study,40 batches of samples including Meigui and Yueji from different regions in China were collected to establish high-performance liquid chromatography fingerprints.Then,the fingerprints data was analyzed using principal component analysis,hierarchical cluster analysis,and partial least squares discriminant analysis analysis chemometrics to obtain information on intergroup differences,and non-targeted metabolomic techniques were applied to identify and compare chemical compositions of samples which were chosen from groups with large differences.Differential compounds were screened by orthogonal partial least-squares discriminant analysis and S-plot,and finally multi-component quantification was performed to comprehensively evaluate the quality of Yueji and Meigui.Results:The similarity between the fingerprints of 40 batches roses and the reference print R was 0.73 to 0.93,indicating that there were similarities and differences between the samples.Through principal component analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis of fingerprints data,the samples from different origins and varieties were intuitively divided into four groups.Partial least-squares discriminant analysis analysis showed that Meigui and Yueji cluster into two categories and the model was reliable.A total of 89 compounds were identified by high resolution mass spectrometry,mainly were flavonoids and flavonoid glycosides,as well as phenolic acids.Eight differential components were screened out by orthogonal partial least-squares discriminant analysis and S-plot analysis.Quantitative analyses of the eight compounds,including gallic acid,ellagic acid,hyperoside,isoquercitrin,etc.,showed that Yueji was generally richer in phenolic acids and flavonoids than Meigui,and the quality of Yueji from Shandong and Hebei was better.It is worth noting that Xinjiang rose is rich in various components,which is worth focusing on more in-depth research.Conclusion:In this study,the fingerprints of Meigui and Yueji were established.The chemical components information of roses was further improved based on non-targeted metabolomics and mass spectrometry technology.At the same time,eight differential components of Meigui and Yueji were screened out and quantitatively analyzed.The research results provided a scientific basis for the quality control and rational development and utilization of Rosae Chinensis Flos and Rosae Rugosae Flos,and also laid a foundation for the study of their pharmacodynamic material basis.

A study on JA-and BTH-induced resistance of Rosa rugosa‘Plena’to powdery mildew(Sphaerotheca pannosa)

Different concentrations of jasmonic acid(JA)and benzothiadiazole(BTH) were sprayed on 2-year-old Rosa rugosa‘Plena’ seedlings. The induced resistance of JA and BTH to Sphaerotheca pannosa(Wallr.) and the changes of their related physiological indices were investigated. Results showed that JA and BTH treatments had inhibitory impacts on S. pannosa infection. The optimal concentration of JA and BTH was 0.5 mmol/L for the disease-resistance induction of the leaves, its inductive effect was up to 66.36% for BTH and 54.49% for JA. Our results confirmed that exogenous JA and BTH significantly improved R. rugose ‘Plena’ resistance to S. pannosa. When treated with JA and BTH, activities of the three defense enzymes(POD, PPO, and PAL) increased significantly.Contents of total phenolics, flavonoids, and lignin also increased significantly. It is inferred from these results that exogenous JA and BTH could improve the resistance of R.rugose ‘Plena’ to S. pannosa through enhancing activities of the defensive enzymes and accumulation of secondary metabolites in the leaves.

Genetic diversity of the endangered species Rosa rugosa Thunb.in China and implications for conservation strategies

Rosa rugosa Thunb. is one of the dominant and important shrub species in estuary dunes and shingle beaches of northern China. However, its area of distribution, the number of populations, and the size of each population have decreased rapidly in the past two decades because of habitat degradation and loss. Random amplified polymorphic DNA markers were used to determine the genetic diversity of four remaining large natural populations of R. rugosa and to discuss an effective conservation strategy for this endangered species in China. High genetic variations were detected in R. rugosa populations in China. The mean percentage of polymorphic loci （P%） within four local populations was 57.99%, with the P% of the total population being 75.30%. Mean Shannon＇s information index （H0） was 0.2826, whereas total Ho was 0.3513. The genetic differentiation among populations was 0.1878, which indicates that most genetic diversity occurs within populations. Population Tumenjiang （TMJ） showed the highest genetic diversity （P% = 66.27%; H0 = 0.3117） and contained two exclusive bands. Population Changshandao （CSD） showed higher genetic diversity （P% =59.04%; H0 = 0.3065）. Populations TMJ and CSD contained 95.33% and 99.33%, respectively, of loci with moderate to high frequency （P〉0.05） of the total population. These results indicate that populations TMJ and CSD should be given priority for in situ conservation and regarded as seed or propagule sources for ex situ conservation. The results of the present study also suggest that R. rugosa in China has become endangered as a result of human actions rather than genetic depression of populations; thus, human interference should be absolutely forbidden in R. rugosa habitats.

Cloning and Expression Analysis of <i>RrGT2</i>Gene Related to Anthocyanin Biosynthesis in <i>Rosa rugosa</i>

At present, the research about flower color of Rosa rugosa is a very inno-vative and practical study. Glycosylation modification fulfills an important role in increasing the stability and solubility of anthocyanin in plants. In this study, based on the transcriptional database of R. rugosa, a gene with full length cDNA of 1422bp, encoding 473 amino acids, designated as RrGT2, were isolated from flowers of R. rugosa ‘Zizhi’ and then functionally characterized. According to online software prediction, the molecular formula of the protein encoded by the RrGT2 gene is C2334H3628N602O711S18, the relative molecular mass is 52,075.17 Da, and the theoretical isoelectric point is pI = 4.76. The result of the RrGT2 protein 3D model construction showed that it had the highest homology with the UDP-glycosyltransferase 74F2 protein model in the database (39.53%). Sequence alignments with the NCBI database showed that the RrGT2 protein is a member of the GTB superfamily. Homology analysis revealed that the coding regions of RrGT2 was highly specific among different species, but still had typical conserved amino acid residues called PSPG that are crucial for RrGT2 enzyme activity. RrGT2 transcripts were detected in five flowering stages and seven tissues of R. rugosa ‘Zizhi’, R. rugosa ‘Fenzizhi’ and R. rugosa ‘Baizizhi’, and their expression patterns corresponded with the accumulation of antho-cyanins. Therefore, we speculated that glycosylation of RrGT2 plays a crucial role in anthocyanin biosynthesis in R. rugosa.

Effect of jasmonate treatments on leaves of Rosa rugosa‘Plena’and detoxification enzymes and feeding of adult Monolepta hieroglyphica

To study the effect of jasmonates(JAs)on the resistance of economic forest plants to insects,R osa rugosa‘Plena'leaves were treated with 1 mmol/L jasmonic acid(JA),methyl jasmonate(MeJA)and Z-jasmone,then the content of tannin and total phenol in leaves and the feeding area of Monolepta hieroglyphica adults on leaves were measured.Changes in the activities of detoxification enzymes in adult M.hieroglyphica that had fed on leaves treated with JAs were also studied.Tannin and total phenol levels in leaves increased significantly after treatment with JAs,and tannin level was 1.36–1.55-fold higher than in the control after treatment with 1 mmol/L MeJA.The total content of phenol in leaves treated with 1.0 mmol/L Z-jasmone increased by 1.33–2.20-fold compared with those of the control.The activities of detoxification enzymes in adults were inhibited to differing degrees:activity of alkaline phosphatase(AKP)first increased,then decreased;the activities of acid phosphatase(ACP),glutathione S-transferases(GSTs)and carboxylesterase(CarE)following treatment with 1 mmol/L MeJA were significantly reduced and were 22%–31%,11%–26%,and 11%–31%lower than those of the control,respectively.Moreover,the feeding area of adult M.hieroglyphica on the leaves treated with JAs was significantly reduced(P<0.05).The feeding area of economic forest R.rugosa‘Plena'leaves treated with 1 mmol/L MeJA decreased by 17%–43%compared with that of the control.Moreover,the decrease in the adult M.hieroglyphica feeding area was highly positively correlated with the content of tannin and positively correlated with the contents of total phenol of economic forest R.rugosa‘Plena'leaves.The reduced feeding area of adult M.hieroglyphica was highly negatively correlated with the activities of AKP and ACP and negatively correlated with those of the GSTs.In conclusion,the use of 1 mmol/L MeJA can noticeably decrease the deleterious effects of adult M.hieroglyphica.

Component Analysis of Anthocyanins in Petals at Different Flowering Stages of Three <i>Rosa rugosa</i>Hybrid Cultivars

The species and contents of anthocyanins in plant petals can make plants appear pink, red, violet and blue, etc., and play a major role in the coloration of plants. In this study, the species and contents of anthocyanins in the petals of three R. rugosa hybrid cultivars, R. rugosa “Zizhi”, R. rugosa “Fenzizhi” and R. rugosa “Baizizhi”, were analyzed, and the direct cause of the differences in flower color of three R. rugosa hybrid cultivars was inferred. This paper provides a reference for the coloration mechanism and flower color breeding of R. rugosa. The specific methods are as follows: the petals of five flowering stages of three R. rugosa hybrid cultivars were used as materials, and the types and contents of anthocyanins contained in them were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The same six kinds of anthocyanins were identified in R. rugosa “Zizhi” and R. rugosa “Fenzizhi”, mainly based on the diglycoside of paeoniflorin and cyanidin. The relative contents of the two anthocyanins were higher at budding stage and initial opening stage. In the different flowering stages of R. rugosa “Zizhi”, the content of Pn3G5G was up to 4280.84 ± 20.82 μg&middot;g-1, and the content of Cy3G5G was up to 789.41 ± 1.21 μg&middot;g-1. In R. rugosa “Fenzizhi”, the highest content of Pn3G5G reached 1293.50 ± 17.64 μg&middot;g-1, and the content of Cy3G5G was up to 358.86 ± 3.94 μg&middot;g-1. It could be speculated that the difference in the contents of Pn3G5G and Cy3G5G was the main reason for the difference in coloration between the petals of R. rugosa “Zizhi” and R. rugosa “Fenzizhi”. A total of five species of anthocyanins were identified in R. rugosa “Baizizhi” and their contents were relatively low. Compared with R. rugosa “Zizhi” and R. rugosa “Fenzizhi”, the presence of Cy3G was not detected. Therefore, we speculated that the two reasons above might be responsible for the visual white flowers of R. rugosa “Baizizhi”.

Cloning and Expression of Anthocyanin Biosynthesis Related Gene RrMYB6 in <i>Rosa rugosa</i>

R2R3-MYB transcription factor plays an important role in plant anthocyanin synthesis. Based on the transcriptional database of Rosa rugosa, one MYB transcription factor related to floral color, RrMYB6, was cloned. By using bioinformatics analysis method, cloning MYB gene and analyzing its function in anthocyanin biosynthesis regulation, we hope to lay a solid foundation for new color variety breeding of R. rugosa. Using the R. rugosa “Zi zhi” as the material, we obtained the total length of cDNA of RrMYB6 by RT-PCR and RACE. By analyzing its bioinformatics, we found that the formula of the protein was C1491H2368N452O470S17, molecular weight was 34690.97 Da, the theoretical pI was 8.74. In addition, it belonged to unstable protein with an unstable index at 50.59, and it was also a hydrophilic protein with the total average hydrophobic index at -0.847. In the secondary structure of RrMYB6 protein, the Alpha helix accounted for 32.35%, random coil was 47.39%, extended strand was 11.11%, and beta turn was 9.15%. The sequence analysis showed that RrMYB6 had a typical R2R3-MYB domain and bHLH binding domain, and it also had an N1, C1, C2 inhibitory motif, belonging to the Sg4 subfamily MYB protein. What’s more, evolutionary analysis indicated that the RrMYB6 protein was closely related with the MYB protein in Rosacea family, while it was far from those in other families. The expression analysis showed that RrMYB6 protein decreased with the color of petals deeping, and its expression was the lowest in the petals while the highest in stamens. According to the above results, it was speculated that RrMYB6 was involved in regulating the anthocyanin synthesis of R. rugosa, which belonged to negative regulatory mechanism.

Furthermore, their phylogenetic relationships are consistent with their traditional classifications. These results were meaningful to reveal the molecular mechanism of R. rugosa pollination incompatibility and improve the theory and techniques of breeding ornamental R. rugosa.

The protein contained two O-glycosylation sites, located at positions 98 and 263 of the amino acid sequence respectively. The protein has a signal peptide site and a transmembrane structure. In addition, by comparing the expression levels of RrF3’H, we found RrF3’H was positively correlated with the depth of flower color.

Cloning and Expression of One Anthocyanin-Related R2R3-MYB Gene in <i>Rosa rugosa</i>

Based on the transcriptome of Rosa rugosa, one anthocyanin-promoting R2R3-MYB gene, RrMYB10.1 (Accession Nos:MH717244), was cloned from the petals of Rosa rugosa ‘Zizhi’. Sequence analysis results showed that RrMYB10.1 had a full length opening reading frame of 747bp, encoding 249 amino acids. Sequence analysis revealed that RrMYB10.1 contained the conserved R2R3-MYB domain, two atypical anthocyanin-promoting motifs and a conserved amino acid signature for the interaction with bHLH protein. The results of phylogenic tree revealed that RrMYB10.1 showed high homology with other anthocyanin-promoting proteins in Rosacea, and sharing the highest identity (98.39%) with RhMYB10. RT-PCR results showed that RrMYB10.1 was mainly expressed in petals among various tissues and expressed significantly higher in petals in bud stage than in opening period. To sum up, these results showed that RrMYN10.1 may play a key role in regulating anthocyanin concentration, thus providing a certain foundation on regulating flower color formation in Rosa rugosa.

Overexpression of the <i>Rosa rugosa RrGT1</i>Gene Induces Anthocyanin Accumulation in Tobacco

Rosa rugosa has always been an important plant in landscape application, and the improvements and innovations about its flower color are particularly important. Glycosylation modification fulfills an important role in increasing the stability and solubility of anthocyanin in plants. In this study, based on the transcriptional database of R. rugosa, a gene with full length cDNA of 1161 bp, encoding 386 amino acids, designated as RrGT1, were isolated from flowers of R. rugosa “Zizhi” and then functionally characterized. Sequence alignments with the NCBI database show that the RrGT1 protein is a member of the GTB superfamily and has typical conserved amino acid residues called PSPG that are crucial for RrGT1 enzyme activity. RrGT1 transcripts were detected in five flowering stages and seven tissues of R. rugosa “Zizhi” and their expression patterns corresponded with the accumulation of anthocyanins. Additionally, the in vivo function of RrGT1 was investigated via its overexpression in tobacco. Transgenic tobacco plants expressing RrGT1 induced anthocyanin accumulation in flowers, indicating that RrGT1 could encode a functional glycosyltransferase (GT) protein for anthocyanin biosynthesis and could function in other species. Therefore, we speculated that glycosylation of RrGT1 played a crucial role in anthocyanin biosynthesis in R. rugosa.
