Abstract excerpt
Atropa belladonna L. (Solanaceae) is a significant source of the pharmacologically important tropane alkaloids (TAs), particularly hyoscyamine and scopolamine. Although rolB and rolC from Rhizobium rhizogenes are known to enhance plant secondary metabolism, their functional specificities and combined actions in TAs biosynthesis remain unclear. Here, we generated transgenic A. belladonna overexpressing 35S::rolB,...
