Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the flavor formation and meat quality differences among different beef cuts in Chinese Wagyu cattle. The metabolites and gene expression profiles of chuck, neck, rump, tenderloin, and longissimus lumborum cuts were analyzed. The results revealed that a total of 240 volatile organic compounds and 779 lipid molecules were detected among the beef cuts, with hydrocarbons (accounting for 29.71%) and triglycerides (representing 41.21%) emerging as the most prominent compounds, respectively. The sensory-directed analysis highlighted the significance of sweet and fruity aroma compounds, which contributed to the distinct aroma profiles among different beef cuts. Additionally, a total of 60 key lipid molecular markers, including FA(18:1), PC(40:5), TG(18:0_16:1_18:1), and TG(36:0_18:1), etc., were identified as playing crucial roles in the generation of essential lipid compounds across five different beef cuts. Integrative analysis of multi-omics data pinpointed a cluster of differentially expressed genes (e.g., , , , ), which were involved in the regulation of valine, leucine, and isoleucine degradation pathways and lipid metabolism. Taken together, this study has identified key metabolites and candidate genes influencing meat quality across different beef cuts, providing a valuable resource for the molecular breeding of high-quality traits in beef cattle.

摘要

本研究旨在探究中国和牛不同部位牛肉的风味形成及肉质差异。分析了肩胛肉、颈部肉、臀肉、里脊肉和腰大肌部位的代谢物和基因表达谱。结果显示,在这些牛肉部位共检测到240种挥发性有机化合物和779种脂质分子,其中烃类(占29.71%)和甘油三酯(占41.21%)分别是最主要的化合物。感官导向分析突出了甜味和果香香气化合物的重要性,这些化合物导致了不同牛肉部位独特的香气特征。此外,共鉴定出60个关键脂质分子标记,包括FA(18:1)、PC(40:5)、TG(18:0_16:1_18:1)和TG(36:0_18:1)等,它们在五种不同牛肉部位必需脂质化合物的生成中起关键作用。多组学数据的综合分析确定了一组差异表达基因(如 、 、 、 ),这些基因参与缬氨酸、亮氨酸和异亮氨酸降解途径以及脂质代谢的调控。综上所述,本研究确定了影响不同牛肉部位肉质的关键代谢物和候选基因,为肉牛优质性状的分子育种提供了宝贵资源。
