Table 1 The number of annotated compounds, categorized by compound class and level of identification according to Sumner et al.51: identified with reference standard (level 1), putatively annotated based on publicly available MS/MS data (level 2), and putatively characterized compound class based on physicochemical characteristics (level 3). The sample type with the highest cumulative abundance is listed for each class. *Other compound classes include alcohols (n = 1), alkaloids (n = 2), betaines (n = 2), diterpenoids (n = 2), esters (n = 1), sphingolipids (n = 1), and triterpenoids (n = 1).
