Metabolic Profiling of Plant Extracts Using Direct-Injection Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry Allows for High-Throughput Phenotypic Characterization According to Genetic and Environmental Effects
In
comparison to the exponential increase of genotyping methods,
phenotyping strategies are lagging behind in agricultural sciences.
Genetic improvement depends upon the abundance of quantitative phenotypic
data and the statistical partitioning of variance into environmental,
genetic, and random effects. A metabolic phenotyping strategy was
adapted to increase sample throughput while saving reagents, reducing
cost, and simplifying data analysis. The chemical profiles of stem
extracts from maize plants grown under low nitrogen (LN) or control
trial (CT) were analyzed using optimized protocols for direct-injection
electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (DIESIāMS). Specific
ions significantly decreased or increased because of environmental
(LN versus CT) or genotypic effects. Biochemical profiling with DIESIāMS
had a superior costābenefit compared to other standard analytical
technologies (e.g., ultraviolet, near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy,
high-performance liquid chromatography, and gas chromatography with
flame ionization detection) routinely used for plant breeding. The
method can be successfully applied in maize, strawberry, coffee, and
other crop species
