Abstract: | Background Terpenoids are among the most important constituents of grape flavour and wine bouquet, and serve as useful metabolite markers
in viticulture and enology. Based on the initial 8-fold sequencing of a nearly homozygous Pinot noir inbred line, 89 putative
terpenoid synthase genes (VvTPS) were predicted by in silico analysis of the grapevine (Vitis vinifera) genome assembly 1]. The finding of this very large VvTPS family, combined with the importance of terpenoid metabolism for the organoleptic properties of grapevine berries and finished
wines, prompted a detailed examination of this gene family at the genomic level as well as an investigation into VvTPS biochemical functions. |
