Journal ArticleDOI

Methyl Jasmonate Induces Traumatic Resin Ducts, Terpenoid Resin Biosynthesis, and Terpenoid Accumulation in Developing Xylem of Norway Spruce Stems

TL;DR: The induction of a complex defense response in Norway spruce by methyl jasmonate application provides new avenues to evaluate the role of resin defenses for protection of conifers against destructive pests such as white pine weevils, bark beetles, and insect-associated tree pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI

Induction of volatile terpene biosynthesis and diurnal emission by methyl jasmonate in foliage of Norway spruce

TL;DR: The major MeJA-induced volatile terpenes appear to be synthesized de novo after treatment, rather than being released from stored terPene pools, because they are almost completely absent from needle oleoresin and are the major products of terpene synthase activity measured after MeJA treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

(E)-β-Ocimene and Myrcene Synthase Genes of Floral Scent Biosynthesis in Snapdragon: Function and Expression of Three Terpene Synthase Genes of a New Terpene Synthase Subfamily

TL;DR: Analyses of tissue-specific, developmental, and rhythmic expression of these monoterpene synthase genes in snapdragon flowers revealed coordinated regulation of phenylpropanoid and isoprenoid scent production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional Characterization of Nine Norway Spruce TPS Genes and Evolution of Gymnosperm Terpene Synthases of the TPS-d Subfamily

TL;DR: Phylogenetic analyses based on the inclusion of nine additional terpene synthase (TPS) cDNAs from Norway spruce revealed that functional specialization of conifer TPS occurred before speciation of Pinaceae and the TPS-d subfamily is divided into three groups according to sequence similarities and functional assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional Annotation, Genome Organization and Phylogeny of the Grapevine ( Vitis vinifera ) Terpene Synthase Gene Family Based on Genome Assembly, FLcDNA Cloning, and Enzyme Assays

TL;DR: The highly expanded VvTPS gene family underpins the prominence of terpenoid metabolism in grapevine and is provided with detailed experimental functional annotation of 39 members of this important gene family in Grapevine and comprehensive information about gene structure and phylogeny.
