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.

Phylogenomic study of selected species within the genus Zea : mutation rate analysis of complete chloroplast genomes [PDF]
This project examines the relationships within the genus Zea using complete chloroplast genomes (plastomes). Zea mays is one of the most widely cultivated crop species in the world. Billions of dollars have been spent in the commercial agriculture sector

Parallel altitudinal clines reveal trends in adaptive evolution of genome size in Zea mays
While the vast majority of genome size variation in plants is due to differences in repetitive sequence, we know little about how selection acts on repeat content in natural populations.

The growing use of commercial unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and the need to adjust N fertilization rates in maize (Zea mays L.) currently constitute a key research issue. In this study, different multispectral vegetation indices (green-band and red-band

Amine Functionalized Cross-Linked Hybrid Full Color Phosphors Lacking Metal Activator Ions [PDF]
White light tunable phosphors are obtained from a sol-gel derived siliceous network to which oxyethylene units are covalently grafted by means of urea or urethane cross-linkages. The bright photoluminescence is ascribed to an unusual convolution of distinct emissions originated in the NH groups of the urea or urethane bridges and in the siliceous ...

The mechanism of selenium-mediated salt tolerance has not been fully clarified. This study investigated the possible role of selenium (Se) in regulating maize salt tolerance. A pot experiment was conducted to investigate the role of Se (0, 1, 5 and 25 μM

The Kumaraswamy Pareto distribution [PDF]
The modeling and analysis of lifetimes is an important aspect of statistical work in a wide variety of scientific and technological fields. For the first time, the called Kumaraswamy Pareto distribution is introduced and studied. The new distribution can have a decreasing and upside-down bathtub failure rate function depending on the values of its ...

Transcriptome-Wide Association Supplements Genome-Wide Association in Zea mays
Modern improvement of complex traits in agricultural species relies on successful associations of heritable molecular variation with observable phenotypes. Historically, this pursuit has primarily been based on easily measurable genetic markers.

iviz: A ROS Visualization App for Mobile Devices [PDF]
In this work, we introduce iviz, a mobile application for visualizing ROS data. In the last few years, the popularity of ROS has grown enormously, making it the standard platform for open source robotic programming. A key reason for this success is the availability of polished, general-purpose modules for many tasks, such as localization, mapping, path
