The Carotenogenesis Pathway via the Isoprenoid-β-carotene Interference Approach in a New Strain of Dunaliella salina Isolated from Baja California Mexico [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2009 D. salina is one of the recognized natural sources to produce β-carotene, and an useful model for studying the role of inhibitors and enhancers of carotenogenesis. However there is little information in D.

Largely different carotenogenesis in two pummelo fruits with different flesh colors.
PLoS ONE, 2018 Carotenoids in citrus fruits have health benefits and make the fruits visually attractive. Red-fleshed 'Chuhong' ('CH') and pale green-fleshed 'Feicui' ('FC') pummelo (Citrus maxima (Burm) Merr.) fruits are interesting materials for studying the ...

Carotenogenesis during tuber development and storage in potato [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2004 Germplasm of Solanum tuberosum and Solanum phureja exhibit a wide (over 20-fold) variation in tuber carotenoid content. The levels of carotenoids during tuber development and storage were compared in a high carotenoid-accumulating S. phureja accession (DB375\1) with two S.
