Genome-wide identification of CCD gene family in Peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch) and expression analysis with aroma norisoprenoids [PDF]
Background Carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) are critical enzymes involved in carotenoid degradation. These enzymes play a significant role in determining fruit color and aroma by modifying carotenoid precursors and generating volatile compounds ...

Genome-wide identification and characterization of the carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase gene family in Bixa orellana L. [PDF]
Bixa orellana L. is the primary source of the apocarotenoid bixin, whose biosynthesis is predicted to be initiated by carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs). A genome-wide analysis was conducted to identify nonredundant CCD genes in B.

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

Aster la vista: Unraveling the biochemical basis of carotenoid homeostasis in the human retina [PDF]
Carotenoids play pivotal roles in vision as light filters and precursor of chromophore. Many vertebrates also display the colorful pigments as ornaments in bare skin parts and feathers.
