%X This study aims to reveal the differences in the species and relative content of metabolites in the leaf and root tuber of Fallopia multiflora and improve the comprehensive utilization rate of F. multiflora resources. The metabolites in the root tubers and leaves of F. multiflora were detected by widely targeted metabolomics based on ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(UPLC-MS/MS). The principal component analysis, hierarchical cluster analysis, and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis were carried out to screen the differential metabolites between the leaf and root tuber of F. multiflora. The result showed that a total of 1 942 metabolites in 15 categories were detected in the leaf and root tuber of F. multiflora, including 1 861 metabolites in the root tuber, 1 901 metabolites in the leaf, and 1 820 metabolites in both. The metabolites were mainly phenolic acids, flavonoids, amino acids and derivatives, and alkaloids. A total of 1 200 differential metabolites were screened out, accounting for 65.9% of the total metabolites. Among these differential metabolites, 813 and 387 showed higher content in the leaf and root tuber, respectively. Flavonoids were the metabolites with the largest number and the most significant differences between the leaf and root tuber, and stilbenes and anthraquinones as the main active compounds mainly existed in the root tuber. The KEGG enrichment results suggested that the differential metabolites were mainly enriched in flavonoid and flavonol biosynthesis pathways and linoleic acid metabolism pathway. This study discovered abundant metabolites in F. multiflora. The metabolites were similar but had great differences in the content between the leaf and root tuber. The research results provide theoretical guidance for the development and utilization of F. multiflora resources.
