The overview of effect on overexpressing AS in C. roseus hairy roots. Overexpressing AS caused the changes of direct metabolite levels including tryptophan and tryptamine. The endogenous JA biosynthesis pathway genes were upregulated and multiple plant hormone transduction pathway were triggered, which can regulate TIA and other secondary pathway genes transcription. The transcriptional changes in secondary pathway genes will in turn change the TIA and other secondary metabolites accumulations.
