Résumé
A cell suspension culture of cv. Gamay was studied for its ability to metabolize two different C13-norisoprenoidic volatiles, β-ionone and dehydrovomifoliol, together with monoterpenes, geraniol and linalool, biogenetically common pathways sharing compounds. β-Ionone was totally metabolized leading to fourteen norisoprenoidic volatiles oxygenated mainly at carbons 3 or 4 of the cyclohexane ring or reduced at side chain. The biotransformation of dehydrovomifoliol was at a lesser extent, giving rise to oxygenated and reduced derivatives. The norisoprenoidic metabolites were present both under free and glycosylated forms. Geraniol and linalool were also metabolized, leading to several free and glycosylated compounds
