                                                    Involved in the formation of (E)-beta-farnesene and (3E)-4,8-dimethyl-1,3,7-nonatriene, key signal molecules in induced plant defense mediated by the attraction of enemies of herbivores. In the presence of geranyl diphosphate, catalyzes the formation of the acyclic monoterpens (3R)-linalool and geraniol. However, the in vitro rate of sesquiterpene formation is about four times higher than the rate of monoterpene formation.
