A Wheat β-Patchoulene Synthase Confers Resistance against Herbivory in Transgenic Arabidopsis

Terpenoids play important roles in plant defense. Although some terpene synthases have been characterized, terpenoids and their biosynthesis in wheat (<i>Triticum aestivum</i> L.) still remain largely unknown. Here, we describe the identification of a terpene synthase gene in wheat. It e...
