Crop biofortification for enhanced Iron and Zinc contents and reduced phytates, in wheat, rice and maize through marker assisted breeding/ transgenic approaches.

High and stable β-carotene durum cultivar HI 8663 (Poshan) evolved widely adapted genotype having 1.4 % to 28.4 % higher yield over checks.

High and stable β-carotene (~ 6.5 ppm), high protein content (11.6 %) and high levels of micronutrients.

Can be used as an excellent “dual quality” durum for preparation of “nutritive chapati” and good quality pasta as well.
