This study identifies two enzymes, a geraniol synthase and a geranyl pyrophosphatase, involved in geraniol production in lemongrass through both canonical and non-canonical pathways.

This study functionally characterizes two glycosyltransferases in Ashwagandha, showing their roles in withanoside biosynthesis and defense against bacterial pathogens.

The paper identifies CrGEF1, CrGAP1, and CrGDI2 as key regulators of ROP-GTPase mediated modulation of alkaloid biosynthesis in Catharanthus roseus through functional and localization studies.

This study identifies two phylogenetically distant enzymes, CfADH1 and CfAKR2b, localized in cytosol and plastids, that drive citral biosynthesis in lemongrass.

The paper identifies and functionally characterizes a root-specific terpene synthase in Artemisia pallens that produces major root volatiles.

This study characterizes WsCYP71B35, a cytochrome P450 enzyme in Ashwagandha, showing its role in withanolides biosynthesis and bacterial defense.
