Genetics . 2020 Mar; 215(1):215-230. PMID: 32152047
Single-cross hybrids have been critical to the improvement of maize ( L.), but the characterization of their genetic architectures remains challenging. Previous studies of hybrid maize have shown the contribution...

Mol Plant . 2019 Jan; 12(3):390-401. PMID: 30625380
Improved capacity of genomics and biotechnology has greatly enhanced genetic studies in different areas. Genomic selection exploits the genotype-to-phenotype relationship at the whole-genome level and is being implemented in many...

Yang J, Mezmouk S, Baumgarten A, Buckler E, Guill K, McMullen M, et al.
PLoS Genet . 2017 Sep; 13(9):e1007019. PMID: 28953891
Deleterious alleles have long been proposed to play an important role in patterning phenotypic variation and are central to commonly held ideas explaining the hybrid vigor observed in the offspring...

Plant Genome . 2016 Nov; 9(1). PMID: 27898757
Teosinte ( subsp. H. H. Iltis & Doebley) has greater genetic diversity than maize inbreds and landraces ( subsp. ). There are, however, limited genetic resources to efficiently evaluate and...

Liu Z, Garcia A, McMullen M, Flint-Garcia S
G3 (Bethesda) . 2016 Jun; 6(8):2523-30. PMID: 27317774
Seed traits have been targeted by human selection during the domestication of crop species as a way to increase the caloric and nutritional content of food during the transition from...

Samayoa L, Malvar R, McMullen M, Butron A
BMC Plant Biol . 2015 Nov; 15:265. PMID: 26530038
Background: A QTL mapping study for maize resistance to the Mediterranean corn borer (MCB) was performed with a RIL population derived from the cross B73 × CML103. To develop commercial...

Genetics . 2015 Sep; 201(3):1201-11. PMID: 26385980
Although maize is naturally an outcrossing organism, modern breeding utilizes highly inbred lines in controlled crosses to produce hybrids. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's reciprocal recurrent selection experiment between the...

J Exp Bot . 2015 May; 66(13):3917-30. PMID: 25969552
Benzoxazinoids represent preformed protective and allelopathic compounds. The main benzoxazinoid in maize (Zea mays L.) is 2,4-dihydroxy-7-methoxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one (DIMBOA). DIMBOA confers resistance to herbivores and microbes. Protective concentrations are found predominantly...

Genetics . 2014 Jul; 198(1):409-21. PMID: 25037958
Grain produced from cereal crops is a primary source of human food and animal feed worldwide. To understand the genetic basis of seed-size variation, a grain yield component, we conducted...
