A genetical metabolomics approach for bioprospecting plant biosynthetic gene clusters

Abstract Objective Plants produce a plethora of specialized metabolites to defend themselves against pathogens and insects, to attract pollinators and to communicate with other organisms. Many of these are also applied in the clinic and in agriculture. Genes encoding the enzymes that drive the biosy...
