Phytoene synthases 1 modulates tomato fruit quality through influencing the metabolic flux between carotenoid and flavonoid pathways

open access: yesHorticultural Plant Journal
The deterioration in fruit quality of commercial tomatoes is a major concern of modern tomato breeding. However, the metabolism and genetics of fruit quality are poorly understood. Here, we performed transgenic and molecular biology experiments to reveal

Production of transgenic cucumber expressing phytoene synthase-2A carotene desaturase gene

open access: yes, 2016
The objectives of this study were to 1) evaluate the efficiency of the protocol of Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of cucumber to introduce phytoene synthase-2a carotene desaturase (PAC genes); 2) demonstrate the integration of PAC genes into the ...

Transcript Analysis Reveals Positive Regulation of CA12g04950 on Carotenoids of Pigment Pepper Fruit under Nitrogen Reduction

open access: yesAgriculture
This study investigates the relationship between nitrogen fertilization and pepper fruit color by employing five different nitrogen treatments (N1: 750 kg/hm2, N2: 562.5 kg/hm2, N3: 375 kg/hm2, N4: 187.5, and N0: 0 kg/hm2).

Direct regulation of phytoene synthase gene expression and carotenoid biosynthesis by phytochrome-interacting factors

open access: yes, 2010
Carotenoids are key for plants to optimize carbon fixing using the energy of sunlight. They contribute to light harvesting but also channel energy away from chlorophylls to protect the photosynthetic apparatus from excess light.
