Constitutive, institutive and up-regulation of carotenogenesis regulatory mechanism via in vitro culture model system and elicitors

Every single step in the pathway of carotenogenesis in the leaves or any part of the plants is regulated and controlled by specific genes. It was inferred that these genetic components would be inherited by either undifferentiated (callus) or differentiated (in vitro shoot) cells since they were i...

It was inferred that these genetic components would be inherited by either undifferentiated (callus) or differentiated (in vitro shoot) cells since they were initiated from their respective intact plants.
