Comparison of Metabolome and Transcriptome of Flavonoid Biosynthesis in Two Colors of Coreopsis tinctoria Nutt.

ABSTRACT: Coreopsis tinctoria Nutt. (C. tinctoria) has a long history of application and high economic and medicinal value. Flavonoids, the main active components of C. tinctoria, are widely studied in pharmacology and food development. However, the flavonoid biosynthesis pathway in C. tinctoria is unclear. In this study, we comprehensively compared the transcriptomes and metabolite profiles of two colors of C. tinctoria flowers (LS and JS) at different flowering stages. A total of 165 flavonoids (46 flavonoids, 42 flavonols, 22 anthocyanins, 18 chalcones, 12 dihydroflavonols, nine isoflavones, eight dihydroflavonoids, six flavanols, and two tannins) were identified in LS and JS at different flowering stages. Thirty-three metabolites (11 anthocyanins, 11 flavonols,
