Significant reaction steps involved in the biosynthetic pathway of individual ketocarotenoids from β-carotene in transgenic maize transformed with ParacrtW. The dotted ovals indicate the different substrates competitively modified by CRTW and BCH, leading to the formation of monoketocarotenoids and diketocarotenoids.
