Plant silicon defence disrupts cryptic colouration in an insect herbivore by restricting carotenoid sequestration into the haemolymph

Physiological Entomology
Abstract Cryptic colouration is a primary anti‐predation strategy in herbivorous insects. Achieving crypsis often requires acquiring dietary carotenoids—tetraterpene pigments vital for plant colouration and photoprotection.

Disruption of a CAROTENOID CLEAVAGE DIOXYGENASE 4 gene converts flower colour from white to yellow in Brassica species.

The New phytologist, 2016
In Brassica napus, yellow petals had a much higher content of carotenoids than white petals present in a small number of lines, with violaxanthin identified as the major carotenoid compound in yellow petals of rapeseed lines. Using positional cloning we identified a carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase 4 gene, BnaC3.CCD4, responsible for the formation of ...
