Abstract Background Vanillin is the most abundant volatile compound in natural vanilla extract and primary metabolite from an economic perspective. Natural second expensive spice world profitable crop adapted to warm tropics. Despite its global popularity, mainly cultivated vegetatively propagated clones insufficient modern plant breeding has been achieved. One of objectives increase vanillin concentration cured capsules. The biosynthesis pathway not thoroughly deciphered multiple hypotheses are considered. Results A comparative transcriptomic approach between two accessions with contrasting content was used fill knowledge gaps on identify potential candidate genes affecting accumulation. Out 59,128 known vanilla, putative positive negative regulators that influence accumulation through modulation, precursor sequestration or enzymatic efficiency were identified. Differentially expressed identified using three specific comparisons accession, tissue type developmental stage capsule. Each comparison analyzed separately focusing specifically accession contrast. BLAST annotation differentially provided protein identities mapped prominent biosynthetic pathways proposed by previous studies. Conclusion Enzymes lignin found be negatively correlated There 656 shared among all included β-glucosidase, cytochrome P450 PAL amongst others. These results gene targets could lead higher

In present study, identification characterization PAL, C4H 4CL gene family in an economically medicinally orchid species, Vanilla planifolia was done. Six two five proteins have been identified planifolia. All amino acid residues related to enzymatic activity were found be conserved all proteins. Subcellular localization VplPAL, VplC4H Vpl4CL predicted their location cytoplasm, endoplasmic reticulum peroxisome, respectively. Alpha helices random coils predominated secondary structure these Gene analysis showed presence introns while PAL had one four present, respectively majority members.
