Waxy Allele Diversity in Waxy Maize Landraces of Yunnan Province, China
Waxy maize is one of the main fresh-eating maize types, and a mutation of the waxy gene causes the waxy character of maize grains. China is rich in waxy maize landraces, and Yunnan and its surrounding areas, are the place of origin and genetic diversity ...

Research Progress and Analysis on Development Strategy of Sweet-Waxy Maize
Sweet-waxy maize is a new type of fresh maize pioneered in China. It combines the advantages of sweet maize and waxy maize. The sweet and waxy grains arranged randomly on one ear, therefore the taste is both sweet and waxy.

Sequence polymorphism of the waxy gene in waxy maize accessions and characterization of a new waxy allele [PDF]
AbstractWaxy maize has many excellent characteristics in terms of its nutritional and economic value. In recent decades, the waxy maize germplasm has increased dramatically as a result of different selection methods. We collected 200 waxy maize inbred accessions from different origins to study their genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationships, and
