Golden Rice Has Same Nutrients as Traditional Rice Except for the Increased Provitamin A Content |
 Compositional analysis of genetically engineered crops determines significant changes in nutrient composition as compared to its conventional counterpart. A article published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry presents the results of the compositional analysis of paddy rice, straw, and bran of biofortified rice (Golden Rice or GR2E) compared with samples of non-transgenic, near-isogenic, control rice (PSBRc82) planted over two growing seasons in the Philippines during 2015-2016 at four locations representing the different rice-growing conditions in the country.
