Abstract

Plants utilize two different pathways for the biosynthesis of isopentenyl diphosphate, the universal building block of all terpenes (see scheme). Application of compound‐specific isotope‐ratio mass spectrometry (GC‐C‐IRMS) to volatile terpenoids allows distinction between the pathways on the basis of natural 12C/13C ratios.
