1‐Deoxy‐d‐xylulose 5‐phosphate reductoisomerase and plastid isoprenoid biosynthesis during tomato fruit ripening

Abstract
The recently discovered 2‐C‐methyl‐d‐erythritol 4‐phosphate (MEP) pathway for the biosynthesis of plastid isoprenoids (including carotenoids) is not fully elucidated yet despite its central importanc...
