Carotenoid crystal formation in Arabidopsis and carrot roots caused by increased phytoene synthase protein levels

As the first pathway-specific enzyme in carotenoid biosynthesis, phytoene synthase (PSY) is a prime regulatory target. This includes a number of biotechnological approaches that have successfully increased the carotenoid content in agronomically relevant non-green plant tissues through tissue-specif...
