説明

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Plant natural products derived from phenylalanine and the phenylpropanoid pathways are impressive in their chemical diversity and are the result of plant evolution, which has selected for the acquisition of large repertoires of pigments, structural and defensive compounds, all derived from a phenylpropanoid backbone <jats:italic>via</jats:italic> the plant‐specific phenylpropanoid pathway. These compounds are important in plant growth, development and responses to environmental stresses and thus can have large impacts on agricultural productivity. While plant‐based medicines containing phenylpropanoid‐derived active components have long been used by humans, the benefits of specific flavonoids and other phenylpropanoid‐derived compounds to human health and their potential for long‐term health benefits have only been recognized more recently. In this part of the review, we discuss in detail the recent strategies and achievements used in the reconstruction of multienzyme pathways in plants and microbes in an effort to be able to attain higher amounts of the desired flavonoids and stilbenoids exploiting their beneficial properties as analyzed extensively in Part I of this review.</jats:p>
