Pathway Edits
- HPT1 prenyltransferase RNAi reduces isopentyl diphosphate prenylation onto phlorisovalerophenone
- OMT1 O-methyltransferase RNAi disrupts the methylphloracetophenone branch feeding humulone
- CHS_H1 chalcone synthase attenuation reduces phlorisovalerophenone substrate pool for HPT1
- 4CL 4-coumarate:CoA ligase modification limits feruloyl-CoA availability for α-acid priming
