Unveiling the genetic blueprint of verbascoside biosynthesis in Olea europaea: an integrative metabolomics, genetics and transcriptomics approach
A critical genetic locus is defined and a core set of candidate genes governing verbascoside production in olive cultivars are defined, providing valuable molecular tools to fast-track the breeding of new olive varieties with enhanced health benefits.
