Terpene Specialized Metabolism inArabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

open access: yesThe Arabidopsis Book, 2011
Terpenes constitute the largest class of plant secondary (or specialized) metabolites, which are compounds of ecological function in plant defense or the attraction of beneficial organisms. Using biochemical and genetic approaches, nearly all Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis) enzymes of the core biosynthetic pathways producing the 5-carbon building ...
