I've got a figure I've put together about how the carotenoids are synthesized in tomatoes, but how we animals utilize the compounds is an entirely different subject.

Part of why I was looking for variety names was for a blog post talking about the carotenoid pathway mutants : http://the-biologist-is-in.blogspot....-tomatoes.html

The list of names is more comprehensive than is used in that post, however. I may do a later post more focussed on the names of varieties with certain genes.
