Expression patterns of genes encoding enzymes putatively involved in the biosynthesis and degradation of carotenoids in the marigold flowers. Gene expression levels in the four flower developmental stages in both marigold ‘V-01’ and ‘V-01M’ are represented by heat maps. PSY phytoene synthase, PDS phytoene desaturase, Z-ISO 15-cis-zeta-carotene isomerase, ZDS zeta-carotene desaturase, CRTISO prolycopene isomerase, LCY-B lycopene beta cyclase, LCY-E lycopene epsilon cyclase, HYD-B beta-ring hydroxylase, HYD-E carotene epsilon-monooxygenase, ZEP zeaxanthin epoxidase, CCD carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase, NCED 9-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase.
