Functional Characterization and Promoter Analysis of a MeJA-Responsive Squalene Synthase Gene CpSQS from Cyclocarya paliurus (Batal.) Iljinsk
Cyclocarya paliurus leaves are rich in bioactive triterpenoids, yet their regulatory mechanisms, particularly in response to methyl jasmonate (MeJA), remain unclear. This study aimed to characterize the spatial and temporal effects of MeJA on triterpenoid accumulation, identify MeJA-responsive genes involved in triterp...
