As reviewed in Gontia-Mishra et al. (2014), among eukaryotes, production of ACCD is well evident in some fungi, which include a few species of yeast such as Hansenula saturnus (Minami et al., 1998), Issatchenkia occidentalis (Palmer et al., 2007), other fungal species namely Penicillium citrinum and Trichoderma asperellum, and a stramnopile, Phytophthora sojae (Jia et al., 1999; Viterbo et al., 2010; Singh and Kashyap, 2012). Recently, ACCD activity has also been observed in certain plants such as Arabidopsis thaliana, poplar, and tomato plant (McDonnell et al., 2009; Plett et al., 2009).
