摘要： Chili pepper (Capsicum spp.) is one of the world's most popular vegetables and spices. Aroma is an important quality indicator of pepper, but the nature of the related volatiles is still not clear. In this study, we investigated the fruit of two pepper varieties, one with strong fruity aroma 'CC' Capsicum chinense and one without 'TJ' Capsicum annuum at four different developmental stages using transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis. The results showed that the content of green leaf volatiles (GLVs) was higher in TJ than in CC and was higher in the young fruit stage in both varieties. GLVs content was positively correlated with the expression of 13-LOX1, 2, 5 and HPL. But the levels of branched-chain (BC) esters and capsaicin were higher in CC, and were positively correlated with the expression of IMPS4 and DADH1. Our findings shed light on the molecular mechanism of aroma biosynthesis in pepper and provide a theoretical basis for the molecular breeding of high-quality pepper fruits.
