Optimization of a solid phase microextraction (SPME) method for analyzing litter volatiles

Description

Leaf metabolomes are constantly changing in response to biotic and abiotic conditions, alongside internal physiological processes. Additionally, the diversity of plant species in a surrounding community influences the leaf metabolome. However, it is rarely considered how these changes might affect the chemical composition of litter emissions, which can mediate interactions with the decomposer community. To study these effects, reproducible methods for trapping litter volatiles are essential, particularly for analyzing larger sample numbers and after longer storage periods. This study optimized and validated a solid-phase microextraction (SPME) method for analyzing small amounts of litter from Quercus petraea within a biodiversity ecosystem functioning experiment. The SPME optimization focused on the fiber material, extraction temperature, and duration of sampling. The final optimized method, using a PDMS/DVB fiber and 60-minute extraction at 70 degrees celsius, demonstrated a high reproducibility, with %RSD values ranging from 0.073 to 0.119% (intraday) and 0.115 to 0.169% (interday) for retention time, and 4.41 to 7.72% (intraday) and 7.67 to 11.0% (interday) for peak area. This makes it a reliable and reproducible approach for the collection and analysis of litter volatiles. After validation, this method was applied to test the hypothesis that oak leaf litter volatile profiles are influenced by the surrounding biodiversity. The results showed that the main compound classes in oak leaf litter were fatty acids and terpenoids. Furthermore, plot diversity level was negatively correlated with terpenoid emission rates. By detecting these changes in volatile composition, we gained further insights into how tree diversity affects litter chemistry, which may also impact the decomposer network.

Click here to queue conversion of this dataset's submitted spectrum files to open formats (e.g. mzML). This process may take some time.

When complete, the converted files will be available in the "ccms_peak" subdirectory of the dataset's FTP space (accessible via the "FTP Download" link to the right).
Number of distinct conditions across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct condition labels are counted across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category having a "Condition" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct biological replicates across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct replicate labels are counted across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category having a "BioReplicate" or "Replicate" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct technical replicates across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

The technical replicate count is defined as the maximum number of times any one distinct combination of condition and biological replicate was analyzed across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category. In the case of fractionated experiments, only the first fraction is considered.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Originally identified proteins that were automatically remapped by MassIVE to proteins in the SwissProt human reference database.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct protein accessions reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct unmodified peptide sequences reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct peptide sequences (including modified variants or peptidoforms) reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Total number of peptide-spectrum matches (i.e. spectrum identifications) reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct proteins quantified across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct protein accessions are counted across all files submitted in the "Statistical Analysis of Quantified Analytes" category having a "Protein" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct proteins found to be differentially abundant in at least one comparison across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

A protein is differentially abundant if its change in abundance across conditions is found to be statistically significant with an adjusted p-value <= 0.05 and lists no issues associated with statistical tests for differential abundance.

Distinct protein accessions are counted across all files submitted in the "Statistical Analysis of Quantified Analytes" category having a "Protein" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
This dataset may not contain all raw spectra data as originally deposited in PRIDE. It has been imported to MassIVE for reanalysis purposes, so its spectra data here may consist solely of processed peak lists suitable for reanalysis with most software.
