Answer: High lysine and tryptophan content in maize.
- 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.
Different fish species occupy different feeding depths in the same pond without competing for food: Catla feeds near the surface, Rohu in the middle zone, and Mrigal or common carp at the bottom - letting a single pond support far more total fish than one species alone.
