Maize Provitamin A Carotenoids, Current Resources, and Future Metabolic Engineering Challenges
Vitamin A deficiency is a serious global health problem that can be alleviated by improved nutrition. Development of cereal crops with increased provitamin A carotenoids can provide a sustainable solution to eliminating vitamin A deficiency worldwide. Maize is a model for cereals and a major staple...
