Teosinte (Euchlaena mexicana L.) Seed Production: Effect of Sowing Date, Seed Rate and Cutting Management on Seed Yield

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
Teosinte (Euchlaena mexicana L.) is a popular herbage crop in Nepal. Although farmers produce teosinte seeds, management for maximizing seed yield is unknown.

CHROMOSOME POLYMORPHISM OF TEOSINTE [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1976
ABSTRACT Florida teosinte from Honduras and Guanajuato teosinte have most of their knobs internally located and a common inversion in the short arm of chromosome 8. Teosintes from northern Guatemala, Huixta and Monajil, have all their knobs terminally located and do not have any inversions.

Domestication reshaped the genetic basis of inbreeding depression in a maize landrace compared to its wild relative, teosinte.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2021
Inbreeding depression is the reduction in fitness and vigor resulting from mating of close relatives observed in many plant and animal species. The extent to which the genetic load of mutations contributing to inbreeding depression is due to large-effect

The potential role of genetic assimilation during maize domestication.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Domestication research has largely focused on identification of morphological and genetic differences between extant populations of crops and their wild relatives. Little attention has been paid to the potential effects of environment despite substantial

Mapping Prolificacy QTL in Maize and Teosinte [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Heredity, 2016
Teosinte, the ancestor of maize, possesses multiple ears at each node along its main stalk, whereas maize has only a single ear at each node. With its greater ear number, teosinte is referred to as being more prolific. The grassy tillers 1 (gt1) gene has been identified as a large-effect quantitative trait locus underlying this prolificacy difference ...

EFFECT OF CUTTING FREQUENCY ON YIELD AND QUALITY OF SOME SUMMER FORAGE CROPS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plant Production, 2000
This study was conducted at Sakha Agricultural Research Station during 1998 and 1999 seasons. The aim of this study is to determine the optimum cutting schedule (4, 3 or 2 cuts in 130 days) of forage sorghum (local hybrid-102), pearl millet (c.v ...

Genetic Diversity and Population Structure of Teosinte [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 2005
Abstract The teosintes, the closest wild relatives of maize, are important resources for the study of maize genetics and evolution and for plant breeding. We genotyped 237 individual teosinte plants for 93 microsatellites. Phylogenetic relationships among species and subspecific taxa were largely consistent with prior analyses for ...
