Involvement of multiple phytoene synthase genes in tissue- and cultivar-specific accumulation of carotenoids in loquat

Four phytoene synthase genes and several variants were characterized, and their evolution and function in differential carotenoid accumulation in leaf, peel, and flesh of white- and red-fleshed loquats were established.
