Vitamin D tomato work

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

Specific text to be added or removed:

In "Research and Career, please add, after the paragraph ending "... high anthocyanin purple tomatoes" the following text: "In 2022 Martin's laboratory produced genetically manipulated tomatoes containing high levels of a precursor to vitamin D. These were scheduled for field trials, and intended to improve dietary intake of vitamin D."

Reason for the change:

I'm requesting this as I have a conflict of interest and cannot make the change myself. This work is a significant output from Martin's group that has attracted widespread media interest from the BBC, Sky News, Farming Today, the Guardian, Financial Times, Independent, Daily Telegraph, Daily Mail, New Scientist, Science Magazine, Reuters etc., and was published in Nature. I think it's a big enough output to be worth a mention as a significant feature of Martin's career.

References supporting change:

Nature, news-editorial referring to the original publication: ^[1] Guardian newspaper:^[2] BBC news: ^[3] (Choose what you think is best! I haven't given refs for all the newspapers as there's no point in ref-bombing; the Guardian is both reliable and accessible) Many thanks! Elemimele (talk) 06:01, 25 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
