Transcriptional deregulation of stress-growth balance in Nicotiana benthamiana biofactories producing insect sex pheromones

Plant biofactories are a promising platform for sustainable production of high-value compounds, among which are insect sex pheromones, a green alternative to conventional insecticides in agriculture. Recently, we have constructed transgenic Nicotiana benthamiana plants (“Sexy Plants”, SxP) that succ...
