Weyl's Branching Rule for $SU(N)$-Setting

On the Wikipedia page for restricted representations

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restricted_representation

there is presented a number of explicit "branching rules". In particular, there is the Weyl's branching rule from U(N) to U(N-1) given in terms of signatures $f_1 \geq \cdots \geq f_N$, for $f_i \in \mathbb{N}$, labelling irreps of U(N). I would guess that this generalises directly to the case of branching from $SU(N)$ to $SU(N-1)$ but cannot find a reference. Can someone suggest a reference?
