Jasmonic and salicylic acids are the major hormones involved in plant response to pests and pathogens. Non-invasive imaging of these hormones at the tissue and whole-organism levels has remained challenging. Here, we engineer autoluminescent plants that report activity of salicylic and jasmonic a...
Background: Specialised anti-herbivory metabolites are abundant in the solanaceous genus Nicotiana. These metabolites include the large family of 17-hydroxygeranyllinalool diterpene glycosides (HGL-DTGs). Many HGL-DTGs occur exclusively within the Nicotiana genus,...
