Farmer preferences for milpa diversity and genetically modified maize in Mexico: a latent class approach [PDF]
Maize, the second most globally important staple crop after wheat, originated in Mexico, where it is typically grown as part of a set of associated crops and practices called the milpa system.

Effect of Teosinte Cytoplasmic Genomes on Maize Phenotype [PDF]
Abstract Determining the contribution of organelle genes to plant phenotype is hampered by several factors, including the paucity of variation in the plastid and mitochondrial genomes. To circumvent this problem, evolutionary divergence between maize (Zea mays ssp.

Ancestral Genetic Resources Provide an Alternative to GMO Crops [PDF]
Concern about the effects of pesticides on human health and the environment, has been a major rationale for promoting transgenic crops, often referred to as genetically modified organisms (GMOs), or as genetically enhanced (GE) crops. Companies that sell

Wild species are important sources of genetic variability and may be exploited by breeding programs. Crosses between teosinte and maize occur freely and teosinte serves as genetic source of agronomic traits for introduction in maize.
