Comparative bioinformatics analysis of the biosynthetic pathways and key candidate genes of three species, vitis vinifera, fragaria vesca and olea europaea, furnish enzyme sets for the production of pharmaceutically valuable terpenes in heterologous hosts

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

Apart from their essential roles in plant fitness (e_g growth and development), terpenes play a key role in defences against insect pests, herbivores, and microbial pathogens, as well as attracting pollinators and facilitating plant-plant interactions (Bohlmann and Keeling 2008; Agrawal and Heil 2012; Schmetz et_al 2014; Vaughan et al 2015; Al-Salihi and Alberti 2021). Due to their bioactivities, terpenes have been widely exploited in the production of valuable materials including biopolymers, flavours, fragrances, cosmetics, biofuels, and pharmaceuticals (Paddon et al 2013; Pateraki et al 2015; Jabir et al 2018; Booth and Bohlmann . . .
