Generation and physiological characterization of genome-edited Nicotiana benthamiana plants containing zeaxanthin as the only leaf xanthophyll

MAIN CONCLUSION: Simultaneous genome editing of the two homeologous LCYe and ZEP genes of Nicotiana benthamiana results in plants in which all xanthophylls are replaced by zeaxanthin. ABSTRACT: Plant carotenoids act both as photoreceptors and photoprotectants in photosynthesis and as precursors of a...
