Unraveling the function of new O-methyltransferases in phenylpropanoid metabolism Ghent University
Phenylpropanoids are a specific class of plant secondary metabolites that play pivotal roles in plant
growth, development and adaptation to the environment. Many also have health-promoting and
medicinal properties. Fundamental knowledge about their biosynthesis could e.g. help increase
stress resistance and improve the nutritional value of plants. Despite years of research, our
knowledge concerning the biosynthesis of ...
