Metabolism and roles of stilbenes in plants
2009-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Stilbenes are a small family of plant secondary metabolites derived from the phenylpropanoid pathway, and produced in a number of unrelated plant species. These compounds have numerous implications in plant disease resistance and human health. This review first presents the stilbene biosynthesis pathway and recent advances in the characterization of stilbene biosynthetic genes in different plant species. A large b...
