Evidence of selection at the ramosa1 locus during maize domestication.

Molecular ecology - 1 Apr 2010

Sigmon Brandi, Vollbrecht Erik

Abstract excerpt

Modern maize was domesticated from Zea mays parviglumis, a teosinte, about 9000 years ago in Mexico. Genes thought to have been selected upon during the domestication of crops are commonly known as domestication loci. The ramosa1 (ra1) gene encodes a putative transcription factor that controls branching architecture in the maize tassel and ear. Previous work demonstrated reduced nucleotide diversity in a segment...
