Elucidating plant-specialized biosynthetic pathways has always constituted a laborious task, notably for natural products with high pharmaceutical values. Here, we discuss emerging omics-based strategies that facilitate the identification of genes from these complex metabolic pathways, paving the way to engineered supplies of these compounds through synthetic biology approaches.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010944 Plants Multicellular, eukaryotic life forms of kingdom Plantae. Plants acquired chloroplasts by direct endosymbiosis of CYANOBACTERIA. They are characterized by a mainly photosynthetic mode of nutrition; essentially unlimited growth at localized regions of cell divisions (MERISTEMS); cellulose within cells providing rigidity; the absence of organs of locomotion; absence of nervous and sensory systems; and an alternation of haploid and diploid generations. It is a non-taxonomical term most often referring to LAND PLANTS. In broad sense it includes RHODOPHYTA and GLAUCOPHYTA along with VIRIDIPLANTAE. Plant
