Genomic variation in recently collected maize landraces from Mexico.
The present dataset comprises 36,931 SNPs genotyped in 46 maize landraces native to Mexico as well as the teosinte subspecies Zea maiz ssp. parviglumis and ssp. mexicana. These landraces were collected directly from farmers mostly between 2006 and 2010. We accompany these data with a short description of the variation within each landrace, as well as maps, principal component analyses and neigh...
متن کاملGene flow from transgenic maize to landraces in Mexico: An analysis
A highly publicized study in 2001 reported that maize landraces in Oaxaca, Mexico were found to contain transgenes, yet not all follow-up research has detected transgenes in the same region. Continued testing for transgenes in Mexican maize, and calls for the removal of transgenes from landraces, have only fueled the debate about the dynamics of gene flow from transgenic maize to landraces in M...
متن کاملDetecting (trans)gene flow to landraces in centers of crop origin: lessons from the case of maize in Mexico.
There is much discussion of the probability of transgene flow from transgenic crop varieties to landraces and wild relatives in centers of origin or diversity, and its genetic, ecological, and social consequences. Without costly research on the variables determining gene flow, research on transgene frequencies in landrace (or wild relative) populations can be valuable for understanding transgen...
متن کاملB chromosome polymorphism in maize landraces: adaptive vs. demographic hypothesis of clinal variation.
Cytogenetic analysis of maize landraces from northwestern Argentina has revealed an altitudinal cline in the mean number of B chromosomes (B's) per plant, with cultivars growing at higher altitudes exhibiting a higher number of B's. Altitudinal and longitudinal clines are frequently interpreted as evidence of selection, however, they can also be produced by the interplay between drift and spati...
متن کاملHigh-Throughput Resequencing of Maize Landraces at Genomic Regions Associated with Flowering Time
Despite the reduction in the price of sequencing, it remains expensive to sequence and assemble whole, complex genomes of multiple samples for population studies, particularly for large genomes like those of many crop species. Enrichment of target genome regions coupled with next generation sequencing is a cost-effective strategy to obtain sequence information for loci of interest across many i...
