Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation is an effective method for introducing genes into maize. In this chapter, we describe a detailed protocol for genetic transformation of the maize genotype Hi II. Our starting plant material is immature embryos cocultivated with an Agrobacterium strain carrying a standard binary vector.

1982
The removal and culture of embryos of higher plants was one of the earliest successful techniques in plant tissue and organ culture. P. R. White desribed a simple technique in his book on tissue culture in which embryos removed from the seeds of Shepherd’s Purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris) can be cultured under completely aseptic conditions.

The metabolism of GA9 in maize (Zea mays)
Phytochemistry, 1998Abstract [17- 13 C, 3 H 2 ]GA 9 was administered to 4-week-old seedlings of normal, dwarf 1 and dwarf 5 seedlings at the 3–4 leaf-stage. After 12 or 24 hr incubation, shoots were harvested, extracted with methanol and the extracts purified by solvent partitioning and HPLC.

Somatic Embryogenesis in Maize (Zea mays L.)
1995Maize is an herbaceous monocot with an annual cycle. Its embryo lies embedded in the endosperm at one side, toward the base of the caryopsis, with the primary root directed toward the attached end. The scutellum is large, lies directly against the endosperm, and partially encloses the embryonic axis. The primary root is enclosed by a coleorhiza.

Heterosis and Photosynthesis in Maize (Zea Mays L.)
1984In previous studies we have reported that marked metabolic deviations in the first steps of the C4 photosynthetic pathway occur among inbred lines of maize with changes In the photosynthetic rate and dry matter production (Morot-Gaudry et al., 1979; Morot-Gaudry et al., 1981).

Manipulating the Maize (Zea mays) Microbiome
Cold Spring Harbor ProtocolsMaize (Zea mays) is a multifaceted cereal grass used globally for nutrition, animal feed, food processing, and biofuels, and a model system in genetics research. Studying the maize microbiome sometimes requires its manipulation to identify the contributions of specific taxa and ecological traits (i.e., diversity, richness, network structure) to maize ...

Maize (Zea mays L.) is the third most important food crop globally after wheat and rice. In sub-Saharan Africa, tropical maize has traditionally been the main staple of the diet; 95 % of the maize grown is consumed directly as human food and as an important source of income for the resource-poor rural population.

Transgenic Cereals — Zea mays (maize)
1999Genetic transformation of maize is routine in several genotypes despite the many difficulties encountered in developing reliable transformation techniques in this major cereal species. Aspects of maize tissue culture, including the target expiant, subsequent rapid in vitro proliferation and dependable regeneration from competent cells were prerequisite

Arsenic accumulation in maize crop (Zea mays): A review
Science of The Total Environment, 2014Arsenic (As) is a metalloid that may represent a serious environmental threat, due to its wide abundance and the high toxicity particularly of its inorganic forms. The use of arsenic-contaminated groundwater for irrigation purposes in crop fields elevates the arsenic concentration in topsoil and its phytoavailability for crops.
