| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The secondary metabolism of plants is known to be a trans-cellular type in which a series of chemical reactions are not completed within a single cell, but proceed by the complex movement of intermediate metabolites between multiple cells. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the whole picture of metabolic differentiation of various cells in this metabolism: 1) we elucidated the details of the intercellular distribution of metabolites in stems and leaves, 2) gene expression was analyzed to clarify the metabolic differentiation of various cells, and 3) we found that cultured cells do not accumulate secondary metabolites, but express all related enzymatic genes.
