Iron Biofortification of Myanmar Rice
Iron (Fe) deficiency elevates human mortality rates, especially in developing countries. In Myanmar, the prevalence of Fe-deficient anemia in children and pregnant women are 75 and 71%, respectively. Myanmar people have one of the highest per capita rice consumption rates globally. Consequently, production of Fe-biofortified rice would likely contribute to solving the Fe-deficiency problem in t...
متن کاملRice and Bean Targets for Biofortification Combined with High Carotenoid Content Crops Regulate Transcriptional Mechanisms Increasing Iron Bioavailability
Iron deficiency affects thousands of people worldwide. Biofortification of staple food crops aims to support the reduction of this deficiency. This study evaluates the effect of combinations of common beans and rice, targets for biofortification, with high carotenoid content crops on the iron bioavailability, protein gene expression, and antioxidant effect. Iron bioavailability was measured by ...
متن کاملThe road to micronutrient biofortification of rice: progress and prospects
Biofortification (increasing the contents of vitamins and minerals through plant breeding or biotechnology) of food crops with micronutrient elements has the potential to combat widespread micronutrient deficiencies in humans. Rice (Oryza sativa L.) feeds more than half of the world's population and is used as a staple food in many parts of Asia. As in other plants, micronutrient transport in r...
متن کاملImportance and advantages of rice biofortification with iron and zinc
Rice (Oryza sativa) being the staple food for almost twothirds of the population plays a pivotal role in Indian economy. Moreover, India ranks first in the world in area of rice cultivation with 43.97 million ha and second in production with 104.32 million tons (Anonymous 2013). Almost 31% of calories of Indian diet are supplied through rice. Research efforts focused on development of high-yiel...
متن کاملSparse Structured Principal Component Analysis and Model Learning for Classification and Quality Detection of Rice Grains
In scientific and commercial fields associated with modern agriculture, the categorization of different rice types and determination of its quality is very important. Various image processing algorithms are applied in recent years to detect different agricultural products. The problem of rice classification and quality detection in this paper is presented based on model learning concepts includ...
