Popcorn (Zea mays L. var. Everta) haploids identified by Navajo phenotype and ploidy level

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
For popcorn, obtaining and identifying haploids are still challenging steps. We aimed to induce and screen haploids in popcorn using the Navajo phenotype, seedling vigor, and ploidy level.

Uncovering the transcriptional response of popcorn (Zea mays L. var. everta) under long-term aluminum toxicity [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2021
To date, the investigation of genes involved in Al resistance has focused mainly on microarrays and short periods of Al exposure. We investigated genes involved in the global response under Al stress by tracking the expression profile of two inbred ...

Transcriptome-based strategies for identifying aluminum tolerance genes in popcorn (Zea mays L. var. everta)

Scientific Reports, 2023
Aluminum (Al) toxicity limits crop production worldwide. Although studies have identified genes associated with Al tolerance in crops, a large amount of data remains unexplored using other strategies. Here, we searched for single substitutions and InDels

Functional genetic diversity in popcorn lines (Zea mays L. var. Everta) focusing on productivity through SSR-EST markers

Acta Scientiarum. Agronomy
Popcorn is a distinct type of maize with a high market demand. In Brazil, there is a shortage of national cultivars that meet production and marketing needs, so seeds are imported, hindering the growth of this sector.
