What are the benefits?

  • rice with built-in Vitamin A that can help prevent blindness in 100 million children suffering from Vitamin A deficiency
  • a tomato that softens more slowly, allowing it to develop longer on the vine and keep longer on the shelf
  • potatoes that absorb less fat when fried, changing the ever-popular french fries from junk food into a more nutritional food
  • strawberry crops that can survive frost
  • an apple with a vaccine against a virus that causes childhood pneumonia
