Deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate synthase (DXS) is the first rate-limiting enzyme involved in
the 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) pathway for terpenoids biosynthesis. Up to …

Background Ginsenoside, as the main active substance in ginseng, has the function of
treating various diseases. However, the ginsenosides content of cultivated ginseng is …

Due to global climate change, drought is emerging as a major threat to plant growth and
agricultural productivity. Abscisic acid (ABA) has been implicated in plant drought tolerance …

Nannochloropsis spp. are promising industrial microalgae for scalable oil production and
the lipid production can be boosted by nutrient starvation and high irradiance. However …

In the methyl-D-erythritol-4-phosphate (MEP) pathway, 1-deoxy-D-xylose-5-phosphate

In this research, we investigated the impact of drought stress on secondary metabolite
production in cumin plants and the associated transcriptional changes in biosynthetic genes …

Terpenoids are important secondary metabolites in plants and are involved in stress
responses and pollinator attraction. Geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate synthase (GGPPS) is a …

Phytophthora blight caused by Phytophthora capsici is a devastating disease for melon
plant. However, the underlying resistance mechanisms are still poorly understood. In this …

Although fucoxanthin is one of the most valuable carotenoids, its biosynthesis pathway is
still poorly understood. Neoxanthin has been regarded as the intermediate of fucoxanthin in …
