Abstract
- "The Terpene Synthase Gene Family in Maize – A Clarification of Existing Community Nomenclature" is a document that explores the significance of terpenes in plants and other organisms, with a specific focus on terpene synthases (TPS). The authors analyze TPS genes in maize and identify approximately 40 TPS genes, including pseudogenes. They propose a standardized naming system for these genes to address gaps in the existing nomenclature. The document provides a comprehensive list of maize TPS genes and their corresponding identifiers, highlighting their roles in terpene biosynthesis. The authors also critique a previous study for its incomplete and inconsistent nomenclature. This document aims to provide clarity and consistency in the naming of maize TPS genes for future research. [Extracted from the article]
