Contrasting effects of selection on sequence diversity and linkage disequilibrium at two phytoene synthase loci.

The Plant cell - 1 Aug 2003

Palaisa Kelly A, Morgante Michele, Williams Mark, Rafalski Antoni

Abstract excerpt

We investigated the effects of human selection for yellow endosperm color, representing increased carotenoid content, on two maize genes, the Y1 phytoene synthase and PSY2, a putative second phytoene synthase. Multiple polymorphic sites were identified at Y1 and PSY2 in 75 white and yellow maize...
