Putative structural genes involved in the biosynthesis of terpenoid backbone in Anemone flaccida. A flow diagram of biosynthetic pathway of triterpenoid in A. flaccida. The chemicals in the MVA pathway are shown in dark boxes, while green boxes are for MEP pathway. The words in blue are enzymes catalyze the reaction. The transcript numbers are shown in red brackets.
