Chromatography Summary:Metabolic profiling data from chili peppers (Capsicum chinese L.) was collected. Pepper seedlings were grown in a greenhouse of Peking University Institute of Advanced Agricultural Sciences with a controlled environment of 25°C temperature, a light-dark cycle of 16 hours light and 8 hours dark, and 70% relative humidity. The fruits of peppers were sampled at seven distinct time points, starting from the day of flowering, i.e. 0 day post-anthesis (DPA) during which flowers were collected. Following this, fruits were harvested on days 7, 16, 30, 50, 55, and 60 DPA. The samples were ground and freeze-dried in liquid nitrogen, followed by extraction using 1.0 mL of 70% aqueous methanol for every 50 mg of the sample, and an ultrasonic process was employed for 30 minutes. The preparation of standards was conducted as follows: a mixed standard in the range of 20-50μg/mL was prepared using methanol of MS grade. For the amino acid standard solution, a 1mg/mL stock solution was prepared in water and subsequently diluted with 50% methanol to achieve a concentration of 50μg/mL. Three biological replicates were used metabolome analysis. The metabolome profiling was carried out using untargeted metabolomics based on liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The samples were filtered through a 0.22 µm membrane and transferred into the lining tube of a sampling vial. Subsequent centrifugation was carried out at 12000 rcf and 4°C for 10 minutes. The processed samples were then analyzed using Thermo Scientific Orbitrap Exploris™ 240 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA). Chromatographic separation was achieved on a T3 C18 (1.7 µm, 2.1 mm × 150 mm column, USA) maintained at 40°C. The mobile phase consisted of A: 1% formic acid in water and B: 1% formic acid in acetonitrile, with a flow rate of 300 µL/min. A 3 µL sample was injected at an autosampler temperature of 10°C. The elution gradient was set as follows: 0-2.5 min, 3-10% B; 2.5-6 min, 10-44% B; 6-14 min, 44-80% B; 14-20 min, 80-95% B; 20-23 min, 95% B; 23-23.1 min, 95-3% B; 23.1-28 min, 3% B. MS was performed using both positive and negative ion scans, with a precursor ion scan mode. The auxiliary gas heater temperature was set at 350°C, and the ion transfer tube temperature was also maintained at 350°C. The sheath gas flow rate and auxiliary gas flow rate were set to 35 arb and 15 arb, respectively. The voltages were set to 3.5 KV for the positive spectrum and 3.2 KV for the negative spectrum. For MS1, the scan resolution was 60000, with a scan range of 80-1200. For MS2, the scan resolution was 15000, with a stepped collision energy of 20, 40, and 60 eV. Metabolite identification and quantification were performed using the Compound Discoverer software 3.3 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA).
