Abstract: Carotenoids are isoprenoid molecules that are the most widespread group of pigments found in nature. In recent years, the cloning and characterization of carotenogenic genes and the new progress in studies of carotenoid biosynthesis and regulation make the genetically manipulating carotenoid biosynthesis pathway to be possible in plants. In this review, the recently progress of carotenoid biosynthesis and regulation are summarized, and introduced some successful transgenic plants of altering the carotenoid composition and content by transgenic technique.
