CRY1–GAIP1 complex mediates blue light to hinder the repression of PIF5 on AGL5 to promote carotenoid biosynthesis in mango fruit

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 7, Page 2769-2789, July 2025.
Summary Carotenoids are essential natural pigments that not only determine the commercial value of horticultural crops through colouration but also serve as vital antioxidants and provitamin A precursors in the human diet. Our previous research has demonstrated that blue light induces carotenoid biosynthesis in mango fruit.

Regulation of carotenogenesis in the red yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous: the role of the transcriptional co-repressor complex Cyc8–Tup1 involved in catabolic repression [PDF]

, 2016
Background: The yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous produces carotenoids of commercial interest, including astaxanthin and β-carotene. Although carotenogenesis in this yeast and the expression profiles of the genes controlling this pathway are known, the

Genome Editing Technologies to Improve Health‐Related Phytocompounds in Crops

Food Frontiers, Volume 6, Issue 3, Page 1271-1286, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Due to rapid global population growth and the resulting significant increase in food demand, the world is facing an epidemic of malnutrition. Although yield improvement remains one of the main targets of breeding programs, much attention is being paid to the nutritional aspects of crops, including nutrients and bioactive compounds that are ...

Exposure dose, light distribution and wavelength affect the fate of introduced bacterial biological control agents in the phyllosphere of greenhouse grown tomato

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 3, Page 789-800, May 2025.
The use of chemical plant protection products must be reduced to promote sustainability in food production. One possible alternative is biological control agents (BCAs), but their efficacy under commercial conditions does not always reach the standard of chemical control agents.

Comprehensive Analysis of Lutein and Loroxanthin in Scenedesmus obliquus: From Quantification to Isolation

Molecules
Carotenoids are hydrophobic pigments produced exclusively by plants, fungi, and specific microbes. Microalgae are well suited for the production of valuable carotenoids due to their rapid growth, efficient isoprenoid production pathway, and ability to ...

An overview of the nutritional quality and health benefits linked to the world diversity of citrus fruits/juices

Journal of Food Science, Volume 90, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Citrus juices represent a nutrient‐dense beverage due to the remarkable balance in their bioactive compounds (vitamins, minerals, dietary fibers, and phytochemicals such as flavonoids and carotenoids). This review aims to examine the nutritional quality and the health benefits of citrus juice consumption linked to the world diversity of citrus

Efficient Fermentation Production of Astaxanthin in Chromochloris zofingiensis via a Novel Inducer‐Free pH‐Stress‐Induced High‐Cell‐Density Cultivation Strategy

Journal of Food Biochemistry, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The unicellular green alga Chromochloris zofingiensis has emerged as a promising candidate for large‐scale astaxanthin production, owing to its exceptional capacity for ultrahigh‐cell‐density growth under heterotrophic conditions. However, the commercial viability of C. zofingiensis is constrained by its inherently low intracellular astaxanthin content.

Photoinduced Carotenogenesis in Chlorotic Euglena gracilis [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1970
Light induces beta-carotene synthesis in streptomycin-bleached Euglena gracilis Z. Light-adapted, chemostat-grown cells have up to 10-fold as much beta-carotene and 25% more protein than similarly grown, dark-adapted cells. Carotenogenesis does not occur under anaerobic conditions or in the presence of diphenylamine, cyanide, or cycloheximide. The blue
