A dolabralexin-deficient mutant provides insight into specialized diterpenoid metabolism in maize (Zea mays).

K. M. Murphy, T. Dowd, A. Khalil, S. N. Char, B. Yang, B. J. Endelman, P. M. Shih, C. N. Topp, E. A. Schmelz, P. Zerbe

The paper identifies ZmKSL4 as the diterpene synthase for dolabralexin biosynthesis in maize and shows its role in root architecture under water deficit.

Comparative transcriptomics and metabolomics reveal specialized metabolite drought stress responses in switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.)

K. J. Tiedge, X. Li, A. T. Merrill, D. L. Davisson, Y. Chen, P. Yu, D. J. Tantillo, R. Last, P. Zerbe

This study compares transcriptomic and metabolomic responses to drought in two switchgrass genotypes, identifying specialized diterpenoids as key to drought tolerance.

Furanoditerpenoid biosynthesis in the bioenergy crop switchgrass is catalyzed by an alternate metabolic pathway

A. J. Muchlinski, M. Jia, K. J. Tiedge, J. S. Fell, K. A. Pelot, L. Chew, D. L. Davisson, Y. Chen, J. Siegel, J. T. Lovell, P. Zerbe

This study identifies and characterizes five cytochrome P450 monooxygenases in switchgrass that catalyze an alternative pathway for furanoditerpenoid biosynthesis, bypassing the canonical class I diterpene synthase pathway.
