Plants synthesize an amazing diversity of volatile organic compounds (VOC s) that facilitate
interactions with their environment, from attracting pollinators and seed dispersers to …

The general phenylpropanoid metabolism generates an enormous array of secondary
metabolites based on the few intermediates of the shikimate pathway as the core unit. The …

Floral volatiles have attracted humans' attention since antiquity and have since then
permeated many aspects of our lives. Indeed, they are heavily used in perfumes, cosmetics …

Vascular plants appeared~ 410 million years ago, then diverged into several lineages of
which only two survive: the euphyllophytes (ferns and seed plants) and the lycophytes. We …

Covering: Up to 2019 Phenolic cross-links and phenolic inter-unit linkages result from the
oxidative coupling of two hydroxycinnamates or two molecules of tyrosine. Free dimers of …

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are emitted by plants as a consequence of their
interaction with biotic and abiotic factors, and have a very important role in plant evolution …
