Cannabinoid biosynthesis in hemp Cheungsam mostly occurs in the flowers, compared to other plant organs. While CBDA synthase expression is high, THCA and CBCA synthase expression is considerably low, indicating lesser THCA biosynthesis and thus low THCA content. Sequence analysis of key genes (CBDA, THCA, and CBCA synthases) of the cannabinoid biosynthetic pathway indicates that orthologs are present in hemp Cheungsam.
