Description

In the face of widespread vitamin A deficiency across sub-Saharan Africa and other regions, maize biofortification has emerged as a critical strategy for improving nutrition and public health. Characterization of Carotenoid Profiles and Presence of Functional Markers in Sub-Tropical Maize (Zea mays L.) Inbred Lines presents groundbreaking research into the genetic diversity and nutritional potential of maize lines bred for enhanced provitamin A content.
Blending molecular biology, plant breeding, and nutritional science, this book offers a comprehensive analysis of carotenoid composition and the presence of key functional markers associated with provitamin A accumulation. It serves as a vital resource for crop scientists, plant breeders, policymakers, and readers interested in food security and sustainable agriculture.
Clear, data-rich, and rooted in real-world implications, this work provides a solid foundation for future breeding programs aimed at combating micronutrient malnutrition through agricultural innovation.
