Polyamine and ethylene biosynthetic pathway with special reference to seaweeds. ODC, ornithine decarboxylase; DFMA, difluoromethylarginine; DFMO, difluoromethylornithine; DMSP, Dimethylsufoniopropionate; CHA, cyclohexylamine; CHAS, cyclohexylammonium sulfate; DCHA, dicyclohexylamine; ACA, 1′-acetoxychavicol acetate; MGBG, methylglyoxal bis-guanylhydrazone; AVG, aminoethoxyvinylglycine; NO, nitric oxide; SPDS, spermidine synthase; SPMS, spermine synthase; ACL5, acaulis5. Symbol “X” in red circle in several steps indicate the inhibitor for respective PA biosynthesis pathway. Symbol “?” in green questioned the existence of Spm biosynthesis pathway in seaweeds.
