The challenges of delivering genetically modified crops with nutritional enhancement traits

The potential for using genetic modification (GM) to enhance the nutritional composition of crops (for either direct human consumption or as animal feed) has been recognized since the dawn of the GM era, with such 'output' traits being considered as distinct, if not potentially superior, to 'input' traits such as herbicide tolerance and insect resistance. However, while input traits have successfully been used and now form the basis of GM...
