Formation and diversification of a paradigm biosynthetic gene cluster in plants
How plant biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) form and evolve remains unclear. Here, via examining available genomes within and between Arabidopsis species, the authors show that the thalianol BGC has evolved recently and is still dynamically evolving through involvement of auxiliary genes and chromos...
