The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

HarvestPlus: Breeding Crops for Better Nutrition (2007, background): “Breeding would entail determining the genetic variation for antinutrients and promoters in HarvestPlus crops, the trait magnitude of expression/stability through G × E studies, trait heritability, and associations with agronomic (Bregitzer and Raboy, 2006) and end-use quality traits.”
Approaches and challenges to engineering seed phytate and total phosphorus (2009, unknown): “Four barley lpa mutations that are downstream of Ins synthesis, and therefore probably are low-phytate due to perturbed Ins phosphate metabolism, reduce crop yield to a varying extent roughly proportional to their reductions in seed phytic [92].”
Biofortification of crops with seven mineral elements often lacking in human diets--iron, zinc, copper, calcium, magnesium, selenium and iodine. (2009, background): “Although many of these mutants have reduced rates of germination and agronomic yield, this is not always the case (Ertl et al., 1998, Pilu et al., 2003; Hulke et al., 2004; Oltmans et al., 2005; Bregitzer & Raboy, 2006; Guttieri et al., 2006a; Raboy, 2007).”
