Zn and Fe Biofortification in Triticum aestivum – Nutritional Evaluation of the Grain

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference contribution › peer-review

Abstract

Zinc and Fe biofortification of staple foods, namely Triticum aestivum crops, might overcome these nutrients deficiencies in humans. Yet, following a metabolic perspective, it might also change the patterns of fatty acids, carbohydrates and proteins, which therefore can alter the nourishing value of the flour. In this context, this work aims at assessing potential implications, in environmental controlled conditions, of bread wheat biofortification on these parameters.
