Taiwania ( Taiwania cryptomerioides Hayata) is a conifer species that is rich in bioactive secondary metabolites. Lignans, which are the major extracts, are especially important, but the biosynthetic gene regulation and downstream biosynthesis pathways remain unclear. In a previous study, we identif...
