GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF MALE ZARAIBI GOATS FED TEOSINTE FORAGE IN RATIONS DIFFERING IN ROUGHGE: CONCENTRATE RATIO [PDF]
This work was carried out on male Zaraibi goats to investigate the effect of using Teosinte forage in two roughage : concentrate (R/C) ratio (40:60 and 60:40) on growth performance, feed conversion and some blood constituents as well as economical ...

The rhizospheric microbiome becomes more diverse with maize domestication and genetic improvement
Domestication and genetic improvement of maize improve yield and stress tolerance due to changes in morphological and physiological properties, which likely alter rhizosphere microbial diversity. Understanding how the evolution of maize germplasm impacts

Spontaneous Hybridization between Maize and Teosinte [PDF]
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. Measuring the spontaneous hybridization rate of the 2 taxa would shed light on the mechanisms contributing to the evolution and ...

Genetic, evolutionary and plant breeding insights from the domestication of maize
The natural history of maize began nine thousand years ago when Mexican farmers started to collect the seeds of the wild grass, teosinte. Invaluable as a food source, maize permeated Mexican culture and religion.

Expression Patterns and Mutant Phenotype ofteosinte branched1Correlate With Growth Suppression in Maize and Teosinte [PDF]
AbstractThe evolution of domesticated maize from its wild ancestor teosinte is a dramatic example of the effect of human selection on agricultural crops. Maize has one dominant axis of growth, whereas teosinte is highly branched. The axillary branches in maize are short and feminized whereas the axillary branches of teosinte are long and end in a male ...

The relevance of gene flow with wild relatives in understanding the domestication process [PDF]
The widespread use of genomic tools has allowed for a deeper understanding of the genetics and the evolutionary dynamics of domestication. Recent studies have suggested that multiple domestications and introgression are more common than previously ...

EFFECT OF PLANT OILS ON USTILAGO MAYDIS INFECTING MAIZE AND TEOSINTE [PDF]
Trials were conducted on bio-control of the common smut disease caused by Ustilago maydis (DC.) Cda on teosinte (Zea mexicana) and maize (Zea mays).

NLSS3 Impairs SHM1 Autophagic Degradation to Regulate Leaf Morphology and Salt Tolerance in Rice
In rice, NLSS3 binds and shields SHM1 from autophagic degradation to maintain serine homeostasis. The A132P mutation in nlss3 disrupts this, triggering SHM1 loss, metabolic dysfunction, K+ imbalance, and impaired ROS scavenging, which collectively drive narrow leaves and salt sensitivity.
