GAME9 regulates the biosynthesis of steroidal alkaloids and upstream isoprenoids in the plant mevalonate pathway

Steroidal glycoalkaloids (SGAs) accumulate in solanaceous plants and contribute to plant defence but are toxic to humans. Here the authors show that the GAME9 transcription factor is a regulator of the SGA biosynthetic pathways providing a potential way to manipulate SGA levels in crops.
