Carotenoids from Marine Organisms: Biological Functions and Industrial Applications
As is the case for terrestrial organisms, carotenoids represent the most common group of pigments in marine environments. They are generally biosynthesized by all autotrophic marine organisms, such as bacteria and archaea, algae and fungi.

Distribution, Biosynthesis, and Function of Carotenoids in Oxygenic Phototrophic Algae
For photosynthesis, oxygenic phototrophic organisms necessarily contain not only chlorophylls but also carotenoids. Various carotenoids have been identified in algae and taxonomic studies of algae have been conducted.
