titleOfInvention |
Artificial chromoplast biogenesis |
abstract |
In the present invention, we show for the first time that the supply of phytoene to feed the carotenoid pathway functions as a primary determinant of chromoplast biogenesis in green tissues. We provide evidence that exceeding a threshold level of phytoene, the first committed intermediate of the carotenoid pathway, is sufficient to induce chloroplast-to-chromoplast differentiation in leaves. The present invention thus reveals a novel aspect of carotenoid biology and additionally presents a powerful tool for biotechnological applications of the modulation of plastid identity, that could be used in the development of new biofortified crops, food or as a source of extracts for a variety of industries. |
