Homospermidine synthase evolution and the origin(s) of pyrrolizidine alkaloids in Apocynaceae
Abstract Premise Enzymes that are encoded by paralogous genes and produce identical specialized metabolites in distantly related plant lineages are strong evidence of parallel phenotypic evolution. Inference of phenotypic homology for metabolites produced by orthologous genes is less straightforward, since orthologs may be recruited in parallel into ...
