A transcriptomics approach to understanding polymorphic and transcript level differences linked to isoquinoline alkaloid production in triploid varieties of Narcissus pseudonarcissus
2014-01-01
Abstract excerpt
The Amaryllidaceae have characteristic isoquinoline alkaloids including galanthamine that is approved for treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. The daffodil (Narcissus pseudonarcissus) is an industrial source of this alkaloid. This project undertook analysis of the daffodil transcriptome as an approach to understanding this alkaloid biosynthetic pathway. Material from the basal plate of var. Carlton was analysed using...
