Terpene & Cannabinoid Biosynthesis
The cannabis plant is capable of synthesizing a wide array of secondary metabolites. Cannabinoids, terpenenoids, flavinoids, phenolics, alkaloids, stilbenoids and lignans are most of the secondary metabolites.
Please review the PowerPoint presentation that covers terpene and cannabinoid biosynthesis in plants. The presentation will covers the biochemistry of terpenes and then dives into what factors affect the triggering of secondary metabolites:
ABIOTIC STRESS • PHYTOHORMONES •AMINO ACIDS •ORGANIC ACIDS •ENZYMES •SAR – ISR PATHWAYS •CHITIN •BIOLOGY •PHYTOCHEMICALS • NUTRIENTS
