Maize as a model system for investigating the molecular basis of morphological evolution in plants.

Symposia of the Society for Experimental Biology - 1 Jan 1998

Doebley J

Abstract excerpt

The genetic and molecular bases of morphological evolution in plants are largely unknown. To address questions surrounding this issue, my laboratory has been investigating the evolution of maize from its wild ancestor, teosinte. Our research suggests that a few gene changes of large effect were involved in the evolution of several different traits including plant and ear architecture and kernel color. In cases...
