The text includes current reviews on the genomics of carotenoid, flavonoid, and betalain biosynthesis in plants and the dietetics of these pigments in humans. Pigments biosynthesized in plants are a source of attractive colors in nature and essential nutrients in our daily fruit, vegetable, and grain diet.   Deciphered from general perspectives and specific fruits and vegetables, genomics focuses on enzymatic genes and regulatory molecular mechanisms in the biosynthesis pathways to produce these pigments in plants. Dietetics focuses on the nutritional and medical benefits to human health from these pigments as nutrients, nutraceuticals, and disease prevention agents when they are ingested from pigment-abundant plant food and metabolized in human body. This work contributes to an expanding awareness of the dietetic benefits to the daily consumption of  pigment-rich fruit, vegetable, and grain food.Plant geneticsPlant biochemistryNutrition   ChemistryPlant Genetics and Genomicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L32020Plant Biochemistryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14021Nutritionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C18000Chemistry/Food Science, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C00004Plant genetics.Plant biochemistry.Nutrition   .Chemistry.Plant Genetics and Genomics.Plant Biochemistry.Nutrition.Chemistry/Food Science, general.540570572572572581.35Chen Chunxianedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910298284903321Pigments in Fruits and Vegetables2502643UNINA
