Carotenogénesis y pigmentos en Cucurbita spp. [PDF]
Carotenoids are organic pigments that the body cannot synthesize and must be supplied in the human diet. This review article aims to approach the carotenogenic route and the predominant pigments in the fruits of Cucurbits, as this is one of the ...

Abstract Plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria enhances nutritional availability during root colonization. Pseudomonas is the most popular bioinoculant due to its synergistic effects on plant development. This study evaluated the impact of four Pseudomonas strain substrate inoculations on tomato phenology, yield, and selected phytochemical components ...

The role of environmental stress in fruit pigmentation
Abstract For many fruit crops, the colour of the fruit outwardly defines its eating quality. Fruit pigments provide reproductive advantage for the plant as well as providing protection against unfavourable environmental conditions and pathogens. For consumers these colours are considered attractive and provide many of the dietary benefits derived from ...

6ß‐Hydroxystigmast‐4‐en‐3‐one and blumenol A were isolated and identified from CWC for the first time. Fresh‐cut processing induced the biosynthesis of these two compounds in CWC during the late stage of storage. Expression of structural genes involved in terpenoid backbone biosynthesis and carotenoid precursor biosynthesis of CWC was induced by ...

Brazilian Biomes as Promising Resources of Rhodotorula Yeasts for the Biotechnological Production of Carotenoids. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Yeasts belonging to the genus Rhodotorula are capable of synthesizing carotenoids, such as β‐carotene, γ‐carotene, torulene, torularodine, and astaxanthin. These carotenoids have been shown to offer health benefits to humans, such as immune system strengthening and a reduced risk of chronic degenerative diseases.

An enhanced electron transport chain improved astaxanthin production in Phaffia rhodozyma
Integrative metabolic analysis of improved astaxanthin production in Phaffia rhodozyma. Luna‐Flores and co‐workers grew their mutant and wild‐type P. rhodozyma strains in instrumented fermenters and obtained kinetics, metabolomics, and transcriptomics data for comparative analysis. By integration with genomic data, the authors found correlation between

SUMMARY A level of redundancy and interplay among the transcriptional regulators of floral development safeguards a plant's reproductive success and ensures crop production. In the present study, an additional layer of complexity in the regulation of floral meristem (FM) identity and flower development is elucidated linking carotenoid biosynthesis and ...

Genes involved in carotene synthesis and mating in Blakeslea trispora [PDF]
Mating of Blakeslea trispora and other molds of the order Mucorales requires the interaction of mycelia of opposite sex, (+) and (-), leading to the development of specialized structures and to an enhanced accumulation of beta-carotene.

Nuevos mecanismos moleculares de regulación de la carotenogénesis en Fusarium oxysporum. [PDF]
El género Fusarium comprende cientos de especies de hongos patógenos y saprófitos, que poseen usualmente un complejo metabolismo secundario. Éste incluye la producción de carotenoides, pigmentos terpenoides que proporcionan a sus colonias un color ...
