The evolution of the ability to synthesize specialized metabolites is likely to have been key for survival and diversification of different plant species. Oats (Avena spp.) produce antimicrobial triterpenoids (avenacins) that protect against disease. The oat beta-amyrin synthase gene AsbAS1
To get some insight into the regulatory mechanisms controlling the sterol branch of the mevalonate pathway, tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv Bright Yellow-2) cell suspensions were treated with squalestatin-1 and terbinafine, two specific inhibitors of squalene synthase (SQS) and squalene epoxidase
The gene products of AK121211, AK066327, and AK070534 from Oryza sativa encode cycloartenol, parkeol, and achilleol B synthases, respectively. Parkeol synthase is a unique enzyme that affords parkeol as a single product. Achilleol B synthase is the third seco-type triterpene

A comparative study was performed to determine the free sterols content and composition during the development of three varieties of linseed (H52, O116 and P129). Seed samples were collected at regular intervals from 7 to 60 days after flowering (DAF).

The saponins of the model legume Medicago truncatula are glycosides of at least five different triterpene aglycones: soyasapogenol B, soyasapogenol E, medicagenic acid, hederagenin and bayogenin. These aglycones are most likely derived from beta-amyrin, a product of the cyclization of
