| description | Quinoa grains are gaining increasing popularity owing to their high nutritional merits. However, only limited information is available on the metabolic profiles of quinoa grains. In this study, we determined the metabolic profiles of black, red, and white quinoa grains via an ultraperformance liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization–tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC–ESI–MS/MS)-based metabolomics. A total of 689 metabolites were identified, among which 251, 182, and 317 metabolites displayed different accumulation patterns in the three comparison groups (Black vs Red, Black vs White, and Red vs White), respectively. In particular, flavonoid and phenolic acid contents displayed considerable differences, with 22 flavonoids, 5 phenolic acids, and 1 betacyanin being differentially accumulated among the three quinoa cultivars. Additionally, correlation analysis showed that flavonoids and phenolic acids could act as betanin co-pigments in quinoa grains. In conclusion, this study provides comprehensive insights into the adequate utilization and development of novel quinoa-based functional foods. |
