Table 5 Carotenoid concentrations (μg/g fresh weight) of yellow-colored arils of Taxus baccata L. ‘Lutea’.

No.	Proposed structure	Taxus baccata L.
Values represent mean ± standard deviation. Significant differences (p ≤ 0.05) within a row are indicated by different letters. a Calculated as sum of (E/Z)-isomers and esters of eschscholtzxanthin. b Calculated as sum of esters of lutein and eschscholtzxanthin.
