Tomatoes turn pale in the heat: high temperature reduces red and green pigmentation via phytochromes
The gardeners among us know that direct sunlight is a prerequisite to obtain full-sized, bright red tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruits. Indeed, light increases the accumulation of yellow and red carotenoid pigments, particularly lycopene, in ripe tomato fruits while it also boosts chlorophyll levels…
