transcriptome analysis of to unravel the biosynthesis of pharmaceutically relevant specialized metabolites.

The tropical tree, , is a prominent source of chromone alkaloid rohitukine, which is used in the semi-syntheses of anticancer molecules such as flavopiridol and P-276-00. The biosynthetic pathway of rohitukine or its derivatives is currently unknown in plants. Here, we explored chromone alkaloid biosynthesis in through targeted transcriptome sequencing.
