The paper shows that host diversity maintains genetic diversity in herbivore populations by preserving rare variants and reducing fitness trade-offs.

This paper demonstrates the feasibility of engineering 2-phenylethylglucosinolate production in Nicotiana benthamiana by combining biosynthetic genes from Barbarea vulgaris and Arabidopsis thaliana, resulting in increased 2PE yield through chimeric pathway optimization.
