More is better: the diversity of terpene metabolism in plants
F Zhou, E Pichersky - Current opinion in plant biology, 2020 - Elsevier
All plants synthesize a diverse array of terpenoid metabolites. Some are common to all, but
many are synthesized only in specific taxa and presumably evolved as adaptations to …
