High-Throughput LC-ESI-MS/MS Metabolomics Approach Reveals Regulation of Metabolites Related to Diverse Functions in Mature Fruit of Grafted Watermelon

Grafting has been reported as a factor regulating the metabolome of a plant.Therefore, a comprehensive metabolic profile and comparative analysis of metabolites were conducted from fully mature fruit of pumpkin-grafted watermelon (PGW) and a self-rooted watermelon (SRW).Widely targeted LC-ESI-MS/MS metabolomics approach facilitated the simultaneous
