- A Iron-enriched beans developed through biofortification breeding
- B Vitamin C-enriched bitter gourd developed through selective breeding
- C Beta-carotene in Golden Rice developed through genetic engineering
- D High lysine and tryptophan content in maize
Correct answer: D. High lysine and tryptophan content in maize
Explanation: The Opaque-2 gene in maize increases levels of lysine and tryptophan, making protein maize nutritionally superior. This was developed at CIMMYT.
