Acta Botanica Croatica, 1999 The differentiation of chromoplasts in the sepals of Physalis alkekengi was studied by light- and electron-microscopy and pigment analyses. The development of the chromoplasts from the chloroplasts started about four weeks after anthesis and, within the next two weeks resulted in the formation of small electron-transparent crystalloids connected to ...

Artificial chromoplast biogenesis
, 2019 [EN] In the present invention, we show for the first time that the supply of phytoene to feed the carotenoid pathway functions as a primary determinant of chromoplast biogenesis in green tissues. We provide evidence that exceeding a threshold level of phytoene, the first committed intermediate of the carotenoid pathway, is sufficient to induce ...
