Aromatic rice produces more 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline than usual due to a loss-of-function mutation in the BADH2 gene. The BADH2 mutation can be transferred by conventional breeding; it is a recessive trait. [4] Gene editing can be used to induce a similar mutation in ordinary rice, turning them aromatic without affecting other traits. [5]
