Le riz génétiquement modifié a reçu trois nouveaux gènes qui lui permettent de produire la bêta-carotène et qui lui confèrent, du coup, une couleur dorée inhabituelle. La nouvelle variété a d'ailleurs été baptisée «riz doré» (Golden Rice). Cette plante a été développée à l'Institut fédéral suisse de technologie, grâce, notamment à un don de la Fondation Rockfeller, un organisme philanthropique américain [...] 1, record 1, French, - riz%20dor%C3%A9
