CHROMOSOME POLYMORPHISM OF TEOSINTE [PDF]
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.

The potential role of genetic assimilation during maize domestication.
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]
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 ...

Genetic Diversity and Population Structure of Teosinte [PDF]
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 ...
