Molecular mechanisms of carotenoid accumulation in carrots
Orange carrots are the example par excellence for extraordinary high and accumulation of carotenoids. In contrast to other carotenoid-accumulating systems, knowledge on the molecular mechanisms involved is rather sparse. The first enzyme of the carotenoid pathway, phytoene synthase (PSY), frequently...
