Learning outcomes
The course on "Secondary plant metabolism has the aim of supplying an integrated view of this part of the biochemistry, including (a) physiologic role of S.P.M.; (b) metabolic pathways, genes encoding relevant enzymes; (C) technological strategies for increasing the production of specific metabolites; (d) toxicity of S.P.M. for man and animals.
The biotechnological strategies for gene identification and expression is discussed together with advantages and disadvantages of different methods.
