Advanced Science, EarlyView.Based on genome size‐functional breadth theory, we introduce and validate a framework that adjudicates conflicting average genome size (AGS) estimates by testing which estimate yields a gap between scaled functional diversity and scaled taxonomic diversity that is consistent with the expected positive association between genome size and gene functional

Investigating the Role of INDETERMINATE1 in Controlling the Floral Transition in Teosinte (Zea mays ssp. parviglumis) [PDF]
, 2023 In all higher plants, reproductive growth is initiated by mobile signalling proteins known as ‘florigens’. Maize (Zea mays ssp. mays) and its progenitor teosinte (Zea mays ssp. parviglumis), contain florigens encoded by members of the Zea CENTRORADIALIS (

Acta Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2018 Based on two-year experiments on inoculated corn, including genotypes of sweet corn (Zea mays var. saccharata)and popcorn (Zea mays var. everta), the analysis of fumonisin FB1 content in kernels was performed. Infection degree of sweet corn was 2.00 and

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

Identification of host kairomones from maize, Zea mays, for the maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais
, 2012 The maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais, is an economically important pest of stored grains in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. The behavioral responses of adult S.

Environmentally Symbiotic Plant Robot
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.An environmentally symbiotic plant robot is presented that externalizes its drive system to plants and soil. By converting germination and growth forces into locomotion, the robot sustains a closed cycle of seeding, germination, growth, and reseeding, autonomously traveling on soil for 30 days using only environmental resources while distributing seeds

Glutathione transferases in maize (zea mays) [PDF]
, 1998 The glutathione transferases (GSTs) of maize have been the most studied GSTs in plants, however much is still not known about these enzymes. In the course of the current study six GST subunits (Zm GSTs I, II and III, which have been reported previously ...

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.The manuscript confirms and expands on previous reports concerning the presence of unusual conjugated hydroxydienoic fatty acids and acetyl‐TAG in the seed oil of Securidaca longipedunculata. The location of acetate only at sn‐2 of TAG was conclusively shown by high resolution NMR and hydroxy seed fatty acids are characterized.
