Genetic Dissection of the Morphological Evolution of Maize
Maize (Zea mays ssp. mays) and its wild progenitor, teosinte (Z. mays ssp. parviglumis) differ dramatically in inflorescence and plant architecture despite the fact that their evolutionary divergence occurred within the past 10,000 years or less. To elucidate the genetic control of the morphological differences between maize and teosinte, my colleague and I employed quantitative trait locus map...
متن کاملCompetitive ability in male house mice (Mus musculus): genetic influences.
Conspecifics of many animal species physically compete to gain reproductive resources and thus fitness. Despite the importance of competitive ability across the animal kingdom, specific traits that influence or underpin competitive ability are poorly characterized. Here, we investigate whether there are genetic influences on competitive ability within male house mice. Additionally, we examined ...
متن کاملPollen competitive ability: the effect of proportion in two-donor crosses
Pollen competitive ability depends on the innate capacity of a pollen donor to produce pollen that reaches the ovules fast, but could also be a consequence of the ability to interfere with pollen from other donors. In a greenhouse study on Viola tricolor, we examined the relative importance of both of these effects by performing crosses where we varied the pollen load composition of two donors....
متن کاملGenetic dissection of intermated recombinant inbred lines using a new genetic map of maize.
A new genetic map of maize, ISU-IBM Map4, that integrates 2029 existing markers with 1329 new indel polymorphism (IDP) markers has been developed using intermated recombinant inbred lines (IRILs) from the intermated B73xMo17 (IBM) population. The website http://magi.plantgenomics.iastate.edu provides access to IDP primer sequences, sequences from which IDP primers were designed, optimized marke...
متن کاملIntragenic Recombination in Maize: Pollen Analysis Methods
The ability to stain mature pollen grains for the presence of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) activity permits the quantitation of ADH+ gametophytes at frequencies below 10-6. This resolution allows reversion and genetic fine structure analyses. The rationale of pollen analysis follows Nelson’s prototype studies with waxy. As with the waxy gene, revertant frequencies for seven Adhi-deficient (Adhi-...
