Hyderabad scientists identify key genetic markers to boost iron, zinc & protein in groundnut
Hyderabad scientists have pinpointed genetic markers in groundnuts linked to higher iron, zinc, and protein content. This breakthrough, achieved through whole-genome sequencing, promises to accelerate the development of more nutritious groundnut varieties. The research identified key genomic regions and superior groundnut types, offering a powerful tool to combat widespread micronutrient deficiencies and enhance global food security.
