Abstract
Studying the regulatory mechanisms in different tissues of pepper is crucial for understanding organ formation, growth, and development. However, relevant studies are far from sufficient. In the current study, the stipe, calyx, pericarp, placenta, and seed of ripe pepper were sampled, and metabolites were determined by the untargeted metabolomics method. Transcriptome sequencing was performed by Illumina NovaSeq 6000, and then a high-throughput data set was built. The results showed that a total of 4879 annotated metabolites were detected in 15 samples of the five tissues under positive and negative ion mode. A total of 110.66 Gb of clean data was obtained by transcriptome sequencing, the clean data of each sample reached 6.21 Gb, and a total of 35 336 annotated expression genes were obtained. Furthermore, validate the accuracy of the data by combining principal component analysis and other methods. In summary, this study provides valuable information for the genetic improvement and breeding of peppers, and it holds potential application value, particularly in enhancing the quality and nutritional value of pepper fruits.
