Metabolomics approach to identify key volatile aromas in Thai colored rice cultivars.

ABSTRACT: In addition to white jasmine rice, Thailand has many native-colored rice varieties with numerous health benefits and the potential to become a global economic crop. However, the chemical characteristics of aromatic substances in native-colored rice are still mostly unknown. This study aimed to identify the key volatile aroma compounds and the biosynthetic pathways possibly involved in their formation in Thai native-colored rice varieties, and thus leading to the search for potential genetic markers for breeding colored rice with better aromatic properties. Twenty-three rice varieties in four categories: aromatic white, aromatic black, non-aromatic black, and non-aromatic red, were investigated (n=10 per variety). Seed husks were removed before the analysis of rice volatile aromas by static
