Maize is a staple food for millions of people in sub-Saharan Africa where a significant number of people suffer from vitamin A deficiency. Yellow maize contains both pro-vitamin A and nonprovitamin A carotenoids with potential health benefits to humans. An improvement in the concentration of thes...

Menkir, A.Rocheford, T.Maziya-Dixon, B.B.Tanumihardjo, S.[Exploiting natural variation in exotic germplasm for increasing provitaminA carotenoids in tropical maize]Exploiting natural variation in exotic germplasm for increasing provitaminA carotenoids in tropical maize

Maize has been targeted as one of the major crops for provitamin enrichment and delivery because it is an inexpensive and easily available source of food for millions of people in sub-Saharan Africa. Although tropical-adapted yellow maize contains provitamin-A carotenoids that can be converted in...
