Abstract excerpt
Duck meat is highly appreciated for its unique flavor and rich nutritional value, and metabolites have become important phenotypic indicators of meat quality. The Sansui duck, a celebrated local breed from Guizhou, is known for its tender, savory meat, yet its metabolomic composition and underlying genetic basis remain unexplored. In our study, non-targeted LC-MS/MS metabolomics of 305 Sansui duck breast muscles...
