General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism the zeta-carotene desaturase is involved in the carotenogenic pathway, overview Carica papaya
additional information the differential accumulation of carotenoids in red- and yellow-fleshed papaya varieties, being higher in the red-fleshed variant, might be partly explained by the transcriptional level of CpPDS, encoding phytoene desaturase, and CpZDS Carica papaya
