Genome-Wide Identification of the CYP716 Gene Family in <i>Platycodon grandiflorus</i> (Jacq.) A. DC. and Its Role in the Regulation of Triterpenoid Saponin Biosynthesis

The main type of saponins occurring in the root of <i>Platycodon grandiflorus</i> (Jacq.) A. DC. are oleanolic acid glycosides. The <i>CYP716</i> gene family plays a major role in catalyzing the conversion of β-amyrin into oleanolic acid. However, studies on the <i>CYP7...
