Isolation and characterization of soybean chalcone reductase cDNA, which encodes the key enzyme for the biosynthesis of 4,2′,4′-trihydroxychalcone in legumes

2014-12-01

Abstract excerpt

In plants, phytoalexins induced by pathogen attack play an important role in disease resistance. In soybean [Glycine max L. (Merr.)], attack by pathogenic bacteria induces the synthesis of isoflavonoids, especially daidzein. Chalcone reductase (CHR) is the key enzyme in the biosynthesis of daidzein. Along with chalcone synthase, it catalyzes the formation of isoliquiritigenin, which is a necessary substrate for da...
