Induced point mutations in the phytoene synthase 1 gene cause differences in carotenoid content during tomato fruit ripening

, 2011
In tomato, carotenoids are important with regard to major breeding traits such as fruit colour and human health. The enzyme phytoene synthase (PSY1) directs metabolic flux towards carotenoid synthesis.
