Genetic Background and Phenotypic Aspects of Light-Induced Carotenoid Biosynthesis in <i>Isosphaeraceae</i> Planctomycetes

Nearly half of the currently described planctomycetes display pink, red, or orange pigmentation. Until recently, however, carotenoid biosynthesis in these bacteria remained largely unexplored. We examined the carotenogenesis and its genetic background in a novel planctomycete of the family <i>...
