Résumé

The majority of carotenoids in petals are xanthophylls and most of these xanthophylls are esterified with fatty acids. Although petunia (Petunia x hybrida) is an important ornamental plant, it cannot accumulate enough carotenoids to have deep-yellow flowers. Our previous study suggested that low esterification activity causes low carotenoid accumulation in petunia corollas. Here, we introduced xanthophyll esterase (XES) from the petals of Ipomoea obscura, tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), and marigold (Tagetes erecta) into a pale-yellow-flowered cultivar of petunia to see whether these affect carotenoid accumulation in petunia corollas. Carotenoid contents and the proportions of esterified xanthophylls were elevated in the corollas of XES-overexpressing (XES-OX) transformants. Expression analysis showed that the transcript levels of endogenous carotenoid biosynthetic genes, which included geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase 2, ζ-carotene desaturase, and lycopene β-ring cyclase in corolla tubes were upregulated in XES-OX plants. In addition, we discovered a difference in the composition of esterified xanthophylls among XES-OX plants, which may be caused by differences in the substrate specificity of their respective XESs. We conclude that esterification is an important process for carotenoid accumulation and XES is a useful tool for the quantitative and qualitative control of carotenoid accumulation in petals.
