“Omics” insights into plastid behavior toward improved carotenoid accumulation
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Plastids are a group of diverse organelles with conserved carotenoids synthesizing and sequestering functions in plants. They optimize the carotenoid composition and content in response to developmental transitions and environmental stimuli.

Photosynthetic Pigments Profiled in Capsicum Lutescens Mutants
Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2021 Lutescens, or lutescent, plant mutants produce leaves that are abnormally light yellow-green compared with normal plants, and are observed in multiple species of Capsicum as well as other genera such as Zea, Oryza, and Oenothera.

Color biogenesis data of tomatoes treated with hot-water and high temperature ethylene treatments
Data in Brief, 2021 Controlled postharvest stresses were used to induce the synthesis of carotenoids in tomato fruit. The accumulation of carotenoids was observed by the change of color of the tomato fruit from green to red.
