A multifunctional sesquiterpene synthase integrates with cytochrome P450s to reinforce the terpenoid defense network in maize. [PDF]
SUMMARY Terpenoids, the largest and most structurally diverse class of plant natural products, play essential roles in maize defense and ecological interactions. In this study, we identified and functionally characterized a sesquiterpenoid‐based defense pathway in maize centered on α‐santalenoic acid, a pathogen‐inducible sesquiterpenoid antibiotic ...
