Carotenoids are mostly C 40 terpenoids, a class of hydrocarbons that participate in various
biological processes in plants, such as photosynthesis, photomorphogenesis, photoprotection…

Carotenoids and tocopherols are the two most abundant groups of lipid-soluble antioxidants
in chloroplasts. In addition to their many functional roles in photosynthetic organisms, these …

Carotenoids are a diverse group of colourful pigments naturally found in plants, algae, fungi
and bacteria. They play essential roles in development, photosynthesis, root-mycorrhizal …

Carotenoids are plant pigments that function as antioxidants, hormone precursors, colourants
and essential components of the photosynthetic apparatus. Carotenoids accumulate in …

Carotenoids are essential photoprotective and antioxidant pigments synthesized by all
photosynthetic organisms. Most carotenoid biosynthetic enzymes were thought to have evolved …

Plants grow in dynamic environments where they can be exposed to a multitude of stressful
factors, all of which affect their development, yield, and, ultimately, reproductive success. …

Compartmentation of the eukaryotic cell requires a complex set of subcellular messages,
including multiple retrograde signals from the chloroplast and mitochondria to the nucleus, to …

The chloroplast can act as an environmental sensor, communicating with the cell during
biogenesis and operation to change the expression of thousands of proteins. This process, …

Abstract Treatment of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) alternative oxidase1a (aox1a)
mutant plants with moderate light under drought conditions resulted in a phenotypic difference …

Communication between the compartments or organelles of cells is essential for plant growth
and development. There is an emerging understanding of signals generated within energy-…
