Multiomics analysis reveals flavonoid accumulation and biosynthesis across different cultivation years and localities of <i>Gongronemopsis tenacissima</i> (Dai-Bai-Jie).

ABSTRACT:

Background

The dried root of Gongronemopsis tenacissima (Roxb.) S. Reuss, Liede & Meve, traditionally known as Dai-Bai-Jie, is a medicinal plant used by the Dai ethnic group, primarily for detoxification. Due to extensive use, wild resources have become increasingly scarce, prompting domestication efforts in China. However, the accumulation patterns of secondary metabolites-particularly flavonoids, the main detoxifying components-and their biosynthetic mechanisms remain unclear.

Methods

This study investigated differences in flavonoid accumulation and transcriptional regulation in Dai-Bai-Jie cultivated for one, two, and three years at high altitudes, and three years at low altitudes. Transcriptome and widely targeted metabolome analyses were conducted. A total of 1,4
