Answer:
Golden rice is a variety of rice which is produced through the genetic engineering by which the the plants starts synthesizing beta carotene which is a precursor of vitamin A. It was intended to produce fortified food which can improve the general health of the people eating rice.

ANSWER
Rice produces carotene in the leaves but the biosynthetic pathway is turned off during plant development in grains. Transgenic rice, Golden Rice, was engineered by inserting two genes that restart the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway leading to the production and accumulation of carotene in the grains. These are the naturally occurring down-regulated genes. But the transgenic variety does not show down regulation and grains are rich in vitamin A.
