Genome assembly and population genomic analysis reveal the genetic basis of popcorn evolution. [PDF]
Summary Popcorn, one of the world's most popular snack foods, represents the most ancient type of maize domesticated by humans. However, the genetic basis underlying popcorn evolution and kernel‐popping traits remains largely unknown. In this study, we assembled a high‐quality genome sequence of the popcorn landrace Strawberry Popcorn (SP) and ...

Breeding maize (Zea mays) for Striga resistance: Past, current and prospects in sub-saharan africa. [PDF]
Abstract Striga hermonthica, causes up to 100% yield loss in maize production in Sub‐Saharan Africa. Developing Striga‐resistant maize cultivars could be a major component of integrated Striga management strategies. This paper presents a comprehensive overview of maize breeding activities related to Striga resistance and its management.
