Carbon Flux Analysis Of Lipid Biosynthesis Pathways In Oil Palm (Elaeis Guineensis Jacq. Tenera)

The aim of this study was to investigate the carbon flux through lipid biosynthesis pathways in the oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq. tenera) using metabolic control analysis (MCA). Three types of tissue from oil palm, namely liquid culture, plastid and mesocarp were used. The results showed meso...
