Organ-specific quantitative genetics and candidate genes of phenylpropanoid metabolism in Brassica oleracea

Organ-specific quantitative genetics and candidate genes of phenylpropanoid metabolism in Brassica oleracea

Phenolic compounds are proving to be increasingly important for human health and in crop development, defense and adaptation. In spite of the economical importance of Brassica crops in agriculture, the mechanisms involved in the biosynthesis of phenolic compounds presents in these species remain unk...
