Abstract
⺠We report the isolation of terpene synthase genes from Coffea arabica. ⺠Three recombinant proteins are functionally characterized as monoterpene synthases. ⺠Tissue specificity and cladistic data are presented. ⺠One of the proteins produces limonene, one of the main monoterpenes in coffee aroma.
