Suppression of carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase 1 (NtCCD1) increases carotenoid contents and attenuates reactive oxygen species (ROS) in Tobacco Leaves

Despite the nutritional and economic importance of carotenoids and their products, regulation of carotenoid content in leaves remains to be fully elucidated. Recent findings indicate that carotenoid content are determined, at least in part, by the activity of carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase 1 (CCD1)...
