Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Given the chemical structures of phenylpropanoid volatiles such as dihydroconiferyl acetate, we assumed that the reduction of phenylpropanoids into dihydro derivatives must be catalyzed by double bond reductases in Petunia axillaris subsp. parodii unlike other petunia species. In this study, we investigated the double bond reductases that are responsible for the branching of the biosynthetic pathway of phenylpropanoid volatiles in petunia flowers.
