Transcriptional Regulation of Carotenoid Biosynthesis in Plants: So Many Regulators, So Little Consensus

In plants, the carotenoid biosynthesis pathway (CBP) is essential for the production of photosynthetic and protective pigments, plant hormones, and visual/olfactory attractants for animal pollinators and seed dispersers. The regulation of carotenoid biosynthesis at the transcriptional level is vital...
