Summary

Description
English: Higher plants, particularly gymnosperms, produce diterpenoid resin acids with the abietane skeleton. When these plant tissues become buried in sediment and undergo diagenesis to become part of sedimentary rocks, the abietane skeleton survives. Today, abietanes found in the rock record are interpreted as evidence of gymnosperm life in the deep past.
