The potential to breed a low‐protein maize for protein‐restricted diets

2021-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Inborn errors of amino acid metabolism, such as phenylketonuria (PKU), are human genetic conditions that result in an inability to metabolize certain amino acids, requiring lifelong maintenance of a very restrictive low‐protein diet. In the case of PKU, this diet does not permit consumption of most maize (Zea mays L.) products, yet maize is a major part of the human diet and is especially significant in some cultu...
