Abstract: In this study, the metabolites in the flowers and leaves of single- and double-petal jasmine were determined and compared by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) combined with multivariate statistical analysis. The results showed that a total of 935 metabolites were identified from all samples, including amino acids and derivatives, phenolic acids, nucleotides and derivatives, flavonoids, lignans and coumarins, tannins, alkaloids, terpenoids, organic acids, lipids, saccharides and sugar alcohols, vitamins, and other compounds. Totally 348 and 337 significantly changed metabolites (SCMs) from the flowers and leaves were identified between single- and double-petal jasmine, respectively. The major SCMs were phenolic acids, flavonoids, lipids, saccharides and sugar alcohols. The leaves of double-petal jasmine were rich in flavonoids. In addition, the flavone and flavonol biosynthesis pathways were more active, leading to accumulation of more compounds with biological and pharmacological activities such as nicotiflorin, cynaroside, quercetin, quercetin-3-O-glucoside, astragalin, and afzelin. Lipids were the major unique metabolites in the flowers and leaves of single-petal jasmine. The unique metabolites in the flowers and leaves of double-petal jasmine were more diverse and abundant than those in single-petal jasmine. The results of this study are very meaningful for guiding the development of jasmine resources.

Key words: single-petal jasmine; double-petal jasmine; widely targeted metabolomics; significant changed metabolites
