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

El arroz dorado, golden rice, auspiciado por la Fundación Rockefeller y la UE [Unión Europea] y desarrollado por Ingo Potrykus y Peter Beyer, es el primer organismo modificado genéticamente destinado a incrementar los aportes de vitamina A de las poblaciones que más lo necesitan [...]. El arroz dorado es un arroz modificado genéticamente para acumular en su embrión betacaroteno y otros carotenos, que son precursores de la vitamina A. Este betacaroteno es el que le otorga un característico y peculiar color dorado, y da origen a su nombre. Este arroz acumula 1,6 miligramos/kilogramo de provitamina A. 1, record 1, Spanish, - arroz%20dorado

La panachure jaune du riz (Rice Yellow Mottle) est la principale maladie qui affect la riziculture irriguée en Afrique et à Madagascar. Transmise par un coléoptère, elle est due à un virus de la famille des Sobémovirus, identifié en 1966 pour la première fois au Kenya par un chercheur néerlandais, puis en 1977 en Côte d'Ivoire par des virologues de l'IRD. Depuis, le virus s'est répandu à la faveur de l'introduction dans les rizières africaines de variétés de riz productives mais très sensibles à celui-ci et à la suite de l'intensification de la riziculture. Extrêmement virulent, il peut détruire la quasi totalité d'une récolte. 2, record 2, French, - virus%20de%20la%20panachure%20jaune%20du%20riz
