You mean like Golden Rice? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_rice http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_rice)
The anti-GMO crowd seem to be anti-GMO for the sake of it, not because any rational reason.
- jrkelly 13y agoand a Golden Rice trial was recently destroyed (http://news.sciencemag.org/asiapacific/2013/08/activists-destroy-golden-rice-field-trial http://news.sciencemag.org/asiapacific/2013/08/activists-des...). It's not a great scene.
- mathattack 13y agoYes. I would think that if this works, there could be other similar uses. If there are natural genes in plants that turn on vitamin production, why not engineer it? It's a shame that they're destroying experiments. There are rational reasons to be concerned about GMO, but destroying tests doesn't help.
