QTL Map of Early- and Late-Stage Perennial Regrowth in Zea diploperennis [PDF]
Numerous climate change threats will necessitate a shift toward more sustainable agricultural practices during the 21st century. Conversion of annual crops to perennials that are capable of regrowing over multiple yearly growth cycles could help to ...

Identification of Fusarium verticillioides Resistance Alleles in Three Maize Populations With Teosinte Gene Introgression [PDF]
Fusarium ear rot (FER) is a common fungal disease in maize (Zea mays L.) caused by Fusarium verticillioides. Resistant germplasm resources for FER are rare in cultivated maize; however, teosintes (Z. mays ssp. parviglumis and Z. mays ssp. diploperennis),

Ecogeography of teosinte. [PDF]
Adaptation of crops to climate change has motivated an increasing interest in the potential value of novel traits from wild species; maize wild relatives, the teosintes, harbor traits that may be useful to maize breeding.

Maize leaf endosphere microbiome was affected by domestication and shows patterns consistent with microbial dysbiosis [PDF]
BackgroundWhether domestication, post-domestication spread, and breeding affected the maize leaf endosphere microbiota is poorly understood despite the well-known effects of those processes on the crop’s genetics and responses to the environment.
