[ 1 ] - The expression profile of D4H and DAT genes in Catharanthus roseus in response to drought, salinity and salicylic acid

Catharanthus roseus L. is an important medicinal plant producing several terpenoid indole alkaloids (TIAs) such as vincristine and vinblastine secondary metabolites with anticancer activity. The TIAs biosynthetic pathways are affected by biotic and abiotic stresses. In this study the effect of drought (7 days), salinity (150 mM NaCl), foliar spray of salicylic acid (10-5 M) and salicylic acid i...
