Which genes were incorporated into the genome of Golden Rice? (check all that apply)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Golden Rice was genetically engineered to produce beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A, by incorporating genes from daffodils and bacteria. The daffodil genes included are phytoene synthase and lycopene beta-cyclase, and the bacterial gene is for carotene desaturase. These genes enable the rice to synthesize beta-carotene in the grain, which is converted to vitamin A when consumed by humans.
