Abstract
In foxtail millet (Setaria italica), knockout of the glutamate formiminotransferases SiGFT1 and 2 increased the accumulation of bioactive folates to approximately four times the level of wild-type plants and decreased levels of the bioinactive oxidation product MeFox by 95%, thus providing a promising route for folate biofortification in cereal crops.
