psy gene of tea cultivars is closely correlated to accumulation of carotenoids which are precursors of tea flavour volatiles, thus the expression strength of psy gene can be used as an indicator for screening quality of tea cultivars |

bioengineering of astaxanthin biosynthesis in rice endosperm. Astaxanthin, a red-colored ketocarotenoid, has strong antioxidant activity and thus can benefit human health. However, astaxanthin is not produced in most higher plants. Introduction of a minimal set of four transgenes (sZmPSY1, sPaCrtI, sCrBKT, and sHpBHY, which encode the enzymes phytoene synthase, phytoene desaturase, beta-carotene ketolase, and beta-carotene hydroxylase, respectively) driven by rice endosperm-specific promoters establishes the carotenoid/ketocarotenoid/astaxanthin biosynthetic pathways in the endosperm of rice |
