Abstract
In many economically important plant species, the chemical composition of one or more non-protein compounds determines the value of the plant and may have an important role in protecting the plant from environmental stress, including pests, drought, salt, temperature and light. A number of potential opportunities exist whereby the range or amount of such valuable compounds can be increased by genetic engineering.Mesh:
