Improving the Nutritional Value of Golden Rice Through Increased Provitamin A Content
The Article “Improving the Nutritional Value of Golden Rice Through Increased Pro-vitamin A Content” was assessed. In the article, primary research was done in an attempt to increase vitamin A output in Golden rice. The researchers hypothesized a switch from daffodil to Maize genes would increase vitamin A output. Their hypothesis was proven correct. A significant aspect of the paper was that the black Mexican sweet corn genes were best because they showed the most vitamin expression. After assessing the paper we suggested that using less specialized vocabulary and a better explanation of methodology could improve the paper.
