Fruit-specific expression of crtB, HpBHY, CrBKT and SlLCYB triggers hyper-production of carotenoids in tomato fruit

2020-04-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Tomato is a major source of dietary carotenoids that play an important role in human health. The biosynthesis of carotenoids involved in a number of catalytic steps, among which the phytoene synthase (crtB) is the first committed enzyme for carotenoid biosynthesis, and the lycopene β-cyclase (LCYB) catalyzes the synthesis of β-carotene, β-carotene hydroxylase (BHY) or β-carotene ketolase (BKT...
