Abstract excerpt

Sweet corn has gained worldwide popularity. Traditional sweet corn possesses low concentration of essential nutrients such as lysine (0.15-0.25%), tryptophan (0.03-0.04%) and provitamin-A (proA 3-4 ppm), and deficiency leads to serious health problems in humans. Here, stacking of shrunken2 (sh2), opaque2 (o2), lycopene epsilon cyclase (lcyE) and β-carotene hydroxylase (crtRB1) genes were undertaken in the...
