Isoflavonoids, and their pterocarpan derivatives, are important phytoalexin defense molecules in legumes (Fabaceae). They are commonly associated with antimicrobial activity and thought to be synthesized de novo or accumulated in response to microbial pathogens. Comparative metabolomics of Fu...
Plants produce thousands of compounds, collectively called the metabolome, which mediate interactions with other organisms. The metabolome of an individual plant may change according to the number and nature of these interactions. We tested the hypothesis that tree diversity level affects the met...
BACKGROUND: Kava is an important neuroactive medicinal plant. While kava has a large global consumer footprint for its clinical and recreational use, factors related to its use lack standardization and the tissue-specific metabolite profile of its neuroactive constituents is not ...
