Full-length transcriptome atlas of Panax vietnamensis var. fuscidiscus reveals novel genes and alternative splicing in tissue-specific biosynthesis of ocotillol-type saponins

Panax vietnamensis var. fuscidiscus is the only known Panax species that accumulates exceptionally high levels of ocotillol (OCT)-type ginsenosides, particularly majonoside R2. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying OCT-type ginsenoside biosynthesis remain largely uncharact...
