Adaptive variation in wild relatives of modern maize has potential use in breeding
We present a high-resolution genomic variation map that greatly expands the sequence information for maize and its wild relatives in the Zea genus. Population genetics of Zea spp. provide a vast trove of adaptive alleles that are absent in maize, with the potential for accelerating future breeding b...

| Sumario: | We present a high-resolution genomic variation map that greatly expands the sequence information for maize and its wild relatives in the Zea genus. Population genetics of Zea spp. provide a vast trove of adaptive alleles that are absent in maize, with the potential for accelerating future breeding by reintroducing genetic diversity. |
