Metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses revealed lipid dif-ferentiation mechanisms in Agaricus bisporus at ambient con-ditions

The transcriptomic data from A. bisporus during during postharvest storage at ambient temperature. A total of a total of 263 significantly changed metabolites and 4492 differentially expressed genes were identified. Lipid metabolites associated with cell membrane degradation were predominantly up-regulated during ambient storage. Transcriptomic data further revealed the alterations of the expression of membrane lipid metabolism-related enzymes. Additionally, energy metabolic processes and products such as glycolysis and linoleic acid changed significantly during ambient storage, indicating their potential roles in the quality deterioration of A. bisporus. These findings provide new insights into the underlying lipidmetabolic mechanism of A. bisporus during postharvest ambient storage and will provide values for mushroom preservation techniques.
