Article Synopsis
- Only a few vanilla species are cultivated for commercial use, facing challenges like high demand, exploitation, and low genetic diversity.
- Researchers investigated Vanilla bahiana from the Atlantic Forest as a potential source of natural vanilla through proteomics analysis.
- They successfully identified 2,326 proteins in the samples, with 75 proteins linked to vanilla flavor synthesis, including vanillin synthase, indicating the significant enzymatic potential of this species for vanilla production.
