Figure 3From: Construction of a novel Pichia pastoris strain for production of xanthophyllsPhotographs of P. pastoris wet cell pellets (left) and agar plates (right). (A) Non-transgenic culture; (B) Recombinant Pp-EBIL cells producing lycopene and β-carotene; (C) Recombinant Pp-EBIL strain harboring the plasmid pGAPZA-WZ and producing lycopene, β-carotene and astaxanthin. The reddish color corresponds to the carotenoids produced by the transgenic cultures.Back to article page
