Abstract:

Tree peony(Paeonia Sect. Moutan DC.)is highly valued for its ornamental qualities,including large flower size,bright colors,and diverse fragrance types. In recent years,analyzing the aroma components and breeding fragrant varieties have become key research foci. This paper systematically reviews the research progress on tree peony fragrance,primarily covering the collection methods of aroma components,the factors influencing aroma synthesis and release,and the biosynthetic pathways of key aroma compounds. Finally,perspectives on future research directions were offered,aiming to provide a theoretical reference for the breeding and industrial application of tree peony fragrance.

Key words: tree peony, volatile organic compounds, fragrance-related genes, TPS, HMGR, DXS, biosynthesis pathway
