In orange-pigmented citrus fruits, the xanthophyll esters are predominant carotenoids, but their biosynthetic origin is currently unknown. this work, seven PYP/XES (Pale Yellow Petal/ Xanthophyll esterase) genes were identified in Citrus genomes, only PYP1-4 and 6 contained structural domains essential for activity. The expression profiles sweet orange other species such as lemon, mandarin pumm...

We study a dynamic, decentralized lemons market with one–time entry and characterize its set of non–stationary equilibria. This framework offers a theory of how a market suffering from adverse selection recovers over time endogenously; given an initial fraction of lemons, the model provides sharp predictions about how prices and the composition of assets evolve over time. Comparing economies in...

Layoffs, Lemons, Race and Gender This paper expands on Gibbons and Katz (1991) by looking at how the difference in wage losses across plant closing and layoff varies with race and gender. We find that the differences between white males and the other groups are striking and complex. The lemons effect of layoff holds for white males as in Gibbons and Katz model, but not for the other three demog...
