Cloning and characterisation of a maize carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase (ZmCCD1) and its involvement in the biosynthesis of apocarotenoids with various roles in mutualistic and parasitic interactions

, 2008
Colonisation of maize roots by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi leads to the accumulation of apocarotenoids (cyclohexenone and mycorradicin derivatives).

Chloroplast to chromoplast transition in tomato fruit: spectral confocalmicroscopy analyses of carotenoids and chlorophylls in isolated plastids and time-lapse recording on intact live tissue [PDF]

, 2011
During evolution, chromoplasts have emerged as plastid structures which accumulate pigments to facilitate flower pollination and seed dispersal of fleshy fruit.

Development of zeaxanthin‐rich tomato fruit through genetic manipulations of carotenoid biosynthesis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, 2020
Summary The oxygenated carotenoid zeaxanthin provides numerous benefits to human health due to its antioxidant properties. Especially it is linked to protecting, together with the xanthophyll lutein, the retina in the human eye by filtering harmful blue ...

The SREBP (Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein) pathway: a regulatory bridge between carotenogenesis and sterol biosynthesis in the carotenogenic yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous

Biological Research, 2021
Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous is a basidiomycete yeast that naturally produces the red–orange carotenoid astaxanthin, which has remarkable antioxidant properties.

eQTL Meta‐Analysis Reveals Conserved and Population‐Specific Regulatory Variation Underlying Nutritional Trait Evolution and Domestication in Tomato

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A comprehensive meta‐analysis of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) across five diverse tomato populations reveals a high‐resolution atlas of transcriptional regulation and uncovers conserved and population‐specific regulatory architectures underlying fruit nutritional quality traits, including flavonoids, sugars, organic acids, carotenoids ...

A kiwifruit bHLH149 transcription factor modulates carotenoid biosynthesis by directly activating LCYB during postharvest ripening

Fruit Research
The carotenoid content in kiwifruit undergoes dynamic changes during the ripening process, yet the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Herein, the variation in carotenoid content was investigated during the postharvest ripening process of kiwifruit ...

Genome-Wide Association Study and Pathway-Level Analysis of Kernel Color in Maize

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019
Rapid development and adoption of biofortified, provitamin A-dense orange maize (Zea mays L.) varieties could be facilitated by a greater understanding of the natural variation underlying kernel color, including as it relates to carotenoid biosynthesis ...

Two Routes to Land: Genomic Underpinnings of Parallel Aerial Egg Deposition in Aquatic Old‐World Pila and New‐World Pomacea (Ampullariidae)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Comparative genomics of Gondwana‐diverged Pila and Pomacea reveals parallel evolution of aerial oviposition. Convergent chromosomal rearrangements reshape regulatory landscapes within topologically associating domains. Lineage‐specific gene family expansions and viral‐derived perivitelline proteins (PV1) underpin desiccation resistance.

Methylome and transcriptome analyses of three different degrees of albinism in apple seedlings

BMC Genomics, 2022
Background Leaf colour mutations are universally expressed at the seedling stage and are ideal materials for exploring the chlorophyll biosynthesis pathway, carotenoid metabolism and the flavonoid biosynthesis pathway in plants. Results In this research,
