Phytoene Synthase Gene ( PSY ) from Sweet Potato ( Ipomoea batatas Lam . ) Enhances Tolerance to Abiotic Stress

ABSTRACT Phytoene synthase (PSY) is the rate-limiting enzyme for carotenoid biosynthesis. To date, several studies focused on PSY genes in the context of abiotic stress responses. In this study, two phytoene synthase encoding genes, IbPSY1 and IbPSY2, were identified from a published transcriptome a...
