Convergence and parallelism in the evolution of plant metabolism
Similar traits in different organisms may originate from shared ancestry or evolve independently. The terminology used to define phenotypic similarity is often confusing. This review attempts to clarify the definitions and present examples from plant domestication and specialized metabolism to explain how complex traits evolve repeatedly in plants ...

Rapid Synthesis of Psychoplastogenic Tropane Alkaloids
Tropane alkaloids are an important class of biologically active small molecules characterized by their 8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane core. Because of their numerous medicinal applications, microbial biosynthesis and a variety of chemical syntheses have been designed for individual family members.

BAHD acyltransferases drive metabolic diversification in plants by coupling conserved catalytic scaffolds with regulatory flexibility, enabling stress adaptation and ecological specialisation. ABSTRACT BAHD acyltransferases constitute one of the most versatile enzyme superfamilies in plants, catalysing the acylation of alcohols, amines, polyamines, and
