Comparative transcriptome profiling of vanilla (Vanilla planifolia) capsule development provides insights of vanillin biosynthesis
Enzymes from the lignin biosynthetic pathway were found to be negatively correlated to vanillin accumulation in vanilla cured capsules. There were 656 differentially expressed genes shared among all three comparisons and included β-glucosidase, cytochrome P450 and PAL amongst others. These results identify gene targets that could lead to higher vanillin content in vanilla cured capsules.
