Fine Mapping of a QTL Associated with Kernel Row Number on Chromosome 1 of Maize. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The genetic factors underlying changes in ear morphology, and particularly the inheritance of kernel row number (KRN), have been broadly investigated in diverse mapping populations in maize (Zea mays L.). In this study, we mapped a region on the long arm

Transformation of Teosinte (Zea mays ssp. parviglumis) via Biolistic Bombardment of Seedling-Derived Callus Tissues

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Modern maize exhibits a significantly different phenotype than its wild progenitor teosinte despite many genetic similarities. Of the many subspecies of Zea mays identified as teosinte, Zea mays ssp.

A comparative study of Tam3 and Ac transposition in transgenic tobacco and petunia plants [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Transposition of the Anthirrinum majus Tam3 element and the Zea mays Ac element has been monitored in petunia and tobacco plants. Plant vectors were constructed with the transposable elements cloned into the leader sequence of a marker gene ...

Maize (Zea mays) Response to Abiotic Stress

open access: yes, 2022
The most extensively produced crop globally is Maize (Zea mays). Its response to diverse environmental stressors is dynamics and complicated, and it can be plastic (irreversible) or elastic (reversible). There is a wide range of soil and climatic conditions in which Maize can be grown.

Utilization of maize husk (Zea mays L.) as low-cost adsorbent in removal of iron from aqueous solution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Adsorption of iron from aqueous solution by using maize husk (Zea mays L.) as a low-cost adsorbent was studied. Batch experiments were carried out at ambient temperature, 0.075–0.250 mm of particle size and 100 rpm of agitation speed to determine the ...

Distribution of chlorpyrifos residue in maize (Zea mays)

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2023
Abstract Chlorpyrifos is an organophosphate insecticide. It has low aqueous solubility, is volatile and non-mobile, moderately persistent in soil, highly toxic to mammals, and is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. The main use of chlorpyrifos is to control various types of agricultural pests.
