This project explores triterpene biosynthesis in monocot plants, focusing on cereals that are vital for human nutrition. The goal is to identify new biosynthetic pathways and enhance pathogen resistance in these crops through genetic engineering.
Triterpenes are one of the most diverse groups of plant natural products, with important roles in plant defense and wide use in medicine, food, and cosmetics.
So far, studies on triterpene biosynthesis have largely focused on eudicot plants, while little is known about triterpene biosynthesis in monocots.
Here, we seek to expand current knowledge of triterpene chemistry and biochemistry in monocots and to investigate mechanisms of metabolic diversification in this group of plants, and specifical…
