New Research Identifies Key Genes Mediating Ginsenoside Biosynthesis in Panax ginseng

A new study published in Plant Physiology has identified that PgERF13 and PgbHLH14 genes play a crucial role in mediating jasmonate-induced protopanaxadiol-biased ginsenoside biosynthesis in Panax ginseng. This discovery provides insight into the transcriptional network controlling the production of these important compounds in ginseng.
