Pro‐Vitamin A Biofortified Cavendish Banana: Trait Stability in the Field
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3327-3344, May 2026.ABSTRACT Vitamin A deficiency (VAD), a major global health concern, has driven efforts to develop staple crops with enhanced pro‐vitamin A (pVA) content. Delivering meaningful nutritional benefits, however, requires technologies that maintain elevated carotenoid levels under field conditions. Previous proof‐of‐concept work demonstrated that pVA content
