\\u201cThe Potential to Breed a Low-Protein Maize for Protein-Restricted Diets\\u201d with Matthew Woore, Dr. Sherry Flint-Garcia, and Dr. Jim Holland
Phenylketonuria is a metabolic disorder which results in a need for a strict low-protein diet. This restricts the intake of corn and many corn-based foods. This episode, Smitty, Sherry, and Jim discuss their work developing a low-protein corn variety so that individuals with Phenylketunoria can enjoy more corn-based foods.
