Isoprenoid Synthesis in Plants and Microorganisms New Concepts and Experimental Approaches
Isoprenoids are important in primary and secondary metabolism. They have implications in a myriad of physiological processes notably in plants, microorganisms and parasites, and biological activities at the cellular, organism, and ecosystem levels. The importance of isoprenoids in various areas of t...
