Metabolic engineering of beta-carotene in orange fruit increases its in vivo antioxidant properties

Orange is a major crop and an important source of health-promoting bioactive compounds. Increasing the levels of specific antioxidants in orange fruit through metabolic engineering could strengthen the fruit's health benefits. In this work, we have afforded enhancing the -carotene content of ora...
