Do maize chromosomes contribute to genetic variance in proportion to their size in elite populations?

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) are often assumed to be uniformly distributed across the genome in modeling and simulation studies. Our aim was to assess whether the contribution of each chromosome to genetic variance (VG) is proportional to its length in maize (Zea mays L.).

Genetic variability in populations of sweet corn, common corn and teosinte

open access: yesCrop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2011
The maize (Zea mays L. ssp. mays) has several related species, called teosinte, which are distributed in various subspecies of Zea and other genera. Among the different types of corn, sweet corn shows a great potential for human food.

Jujube Witches' Broom Phytoplasma Effectors SJP1/2 Manipulate the ZjTCP2‐ZjTCP1 Cascade to Repress Leaf Cell Proliferation in Jujube

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
SJP1 and SJP2, two effectors secreted by JWB phytoplasmas, inhibit jujube leaf cell proliferation through manipulating a cascade involving ZjTCP2 and ZjTCP1, two TCP transcription factors from distinct subfamilies. ABSTRACT Leaf development into the final size is spatiotemporally regulated by cell proliferation and expansion. The jujube witches' broom (

Breeding value of prolific maize varieties with nicking of parental lines

open access: yesТруды по прикладной ботанике, генетике и селекции, 2019
Background. Production of multiple-ear maize varieties is quite complicated because of asynchronous flowering in parents. Solving the problem of flowering asynchrony by breeding methods will allow breeders to improve the yield through increasing the ...

Variations in physiological, biochemical, and structural traits of photosynthesis and resource use efficiency in maize and teosintes (NADP-ME-type C4)

open access: yesPlant Production Science, 2017
C4 plants show higher photosynthetic capacity and resource use efficiency than C3 plants. However, the genetic variations of these traits and their regulatory factors in C4 plants still remain to be resolved.

Cryptic homoeology analysis in species and hybrids of genus Zea

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2013
Cryptic intergenomic pairing of genus Zea was induced by the use of a diluted colchicine solution in order to elucidate the phylogenetic relations and differentiation of the homoeologous genomes. Results indicate that in species and hybrids with 2n = 20,

Produção de forragem de gramíneas anuais semeadas no verão Forage yield of annual grasses seeded on the summer

open access: yesCiência Rural, 2012
No Rio Grande do Sul, a base forrageira para bovinos de corte e de leite é constituída, basicamente, por pastagens de gramíneas perenes de verão, com bom valor nutritivo (VN) durante a primavera e parte do verão, quando manejadas adequadamente ...

Spontaneous Hybridization between Maize and Teosinte [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The closest wild relatives of maize, Zea mays ssp. mays are various Zea taxa known as "teosinte.” Hybrids between maize and the teosinte taxon, Zea mays ssp. mexicana, often occur when the 2 are sympatric in Mexico.

Comparison of Promeristem Structure and Ontogeny of Procambium in Primary Roots of Zea mays ssp. Mexicana and Z. mays ‘Honey Bantam’ with Emphasis on Metaxylem Vessel Histogenesis

open access: yesPlants, 2019
Classical histology describes the histological organization in Zea mays as having a “closed organization” that differs from Arabidopsis with the development of xylem conforming to predictable rules. We speculated that root apical meristem organization in
