Abstract excerpt
Large-scale genome sequencing of maize wild species (teosinte) has uncovered thousands of genetic mutations, but distinguishing causal alleles from neutral variations remains a significant challenge. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of phosphorylation-associated single-nucleotide variations (pSNVs) to enhance our understanding of adaptive variations in the Zea genus. We collected 234 teosinte...
