Froma consumer perspective, the focus on value-added traits, especially improved nutrition, is
undoubtedly one of the areas of greatest interest. From a basic nutrition perspective, there is a clear
dichotomy in demonstrated need between different regions and socioeconomic groups, the starkest being
inappropriate consumption in the developedworld and under-nourishment in LessDeveloped Countries
(LDCs).Dramatic increases intheoccurrenceofobesityandrelatedailments inaffluent regions are insharp
contrast to chronic malnutrition in many LDCs. Both problems require a modified food supply, and the
tools of biotechnology have a part to play.Developing plantswith improved traits involves overcoming a
variety of technical, regulatory andindeedperceptionhurdles inherent inperceivedandreal challenges of
complex traits modifications. Continuing improvements in molecular and genomic technologies are
contributing to the acceleration of product development to produce plants with the appropriate quality
traits for the different regions and needs. Crops with improved traits in the pipeline, the evolving
technologies and the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead are covered.
