additional information generation the two cross-convergent mutants, TPS10-B73 L356F and TPS10-dip F356L, by site-directed mutagenesis. The mutated enzymes are heterologously expressed, purified and assayed with the substrate (E,E)-farnesyl diphosphate. The mutant enzyme TPS10-B73 L356F produces less cyclic compounds than the wild type TPS10-B73 and has a product spectrum nearly identical to that of the wild type allele TPS10-dip which contains a phenylalanine at position 356. Conversely, the mutation of phenylalanine 356 to leucine in TPS10-dip results in a product profile dominated by (E)-alpha-bergamotene that is very similar to that of TPS10-B73. These results demonstrate that phenylalanine at position 356 is responsible for the decreased production of cyclic compounds in TPS10-dip and TPS10-per Zea mays

(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate Zea mays maize plants attacked by lepidopteran larvae emit a volatile mixture that consists mostly of the sesquiterpene olefins, (E)-alpha-bergamotene and (E)-beta-farnesene. These volatiles are produced by the herbivore-induced terpene synthase TPS10 and attract natural enemies to the damaged plants. The TPS10 products (E)-alpha-bergamotene and (E)-beta-farnesene are consistently induced by herbivory, indicating that release of TPS10 volatiles is a defense trait conserved among maize and its wild relatives (E)-beta-farnesene + diphosphate
