| Accessions | AEE83258 NM_117401 NP_193064 |
| Function | Involved in sesquiterpene (C15) biosynthesis. The major product is (Z)-gamma-bisabolene with minor amounts of (E)- nerolidol and alpha-bisabolol. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16297850}. |
| Subcellular Location | Cytoplasm {ECO:0000305}. |
| Tissue Specificity | Predominantly expressed in roots. Expressed in the cortex and the sub-epidermal layers of roots. Also detected in leaf hydathodes and flower stigmata. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12566586, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16297850}. |
