Metabolic Engineering of Flavonoids | Genetics

In this article we will discuss about the metabolic engineering of flavonoids. Flavonoids are diverse group of plant natural product synthe­sised mainly from phenyl propanoid and acetate derived precursors. Flavonoids play a active role in plant defence microorganism, pest, plant microbe signalling and also in growth and development. These compounds exhibit potential antioxidant activity. The major health benefits of fruits, [...]
