Development and analysis of de novo transcriptome assemblies of multiple genotypes of Cymbopogon spp. reveal candidate genes involved in the biosynthesis of aromatic monoterpenes.

Abstract excerpt

Despite the high economic value of the monoterpene-rich essential oils from different genotypes of Cymbopogon, the knowledge about the genes and metabolic route(s) involved in the biosynthesis of aromatic monoterpenes in this genus is limited. In the present study, a comprehensive transcriptome analysis of four genotypes of Cymbopogon, displaying diverse quantitative and qualitative profiles of volatile...
