Phenylpropanoids are a large class of plant secondary metabolites derived from aromatic
amino acids phenylalanine in most plants or tyrosine in partial monocots. It mainly includes …

Flavonoids are a signature class of secondary metabolites formed from a relatively simple
collection of scaffolds. They are extensively decorated by chemical reactions including …

Beneficial interactions between plant roots and rhizosphere microorganisms are pivotal for
plant fitness. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms controlling the feedback between …

Plant diseases are among the major causes of crop yield losses around the world. To confer
disease resistance, conventional breeding relies on the deployment of single resistance (R) …

Flavones correspond to a flavonoid subgroup that is widely distributed in the plants, and
which can be synthesized by different pathways, depending on whether they contain C-or O …

The phytohormone salicylic acid (SA) plays essential roles in biotic and abiotic responses,
plant development, and leaf senescence. 2, 5-Dihydroxybenzoic acid (2, 5-DHBA or gentisic …

Flavones are among the major colorless pigments synthesized through branches of the
flavonoid pathway in plants. However, due to the absence of a gene encoding flavone …

The 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase (2-OGD) superfamily is one of the largest
protein families in plants. The main oxidation reactions they catalyze in plants are …

Flavonoids are important plant natural products with variable structures and bioactivities. All
known plant flavonoids are generated under the catalysis of a type III polyketide synthase …

Glomerella leaf spot (GLS), a fungal disease caused by Colletotrichum fructicola, severely
affects apple quality and yield, yet few resistance genes have been identified in apple …
