Transcriptome profiling unveils the mechanism of phenylpropane biosynthesis in rhizome development of Caucasian clover.

Caucasian clover is the only perennial herb of the genus Leguminous clover with underground rhizomes. However, we know very little about its development process and mechanism. Transcriptome studies were conducted on the roots of Caucasian clover without a rhizome (NR) at the young seedling stage and...
