QTL Mapping of Fusarium moniliforme ear rot resistance in highland maize, Mexico
(Colegio de Postgraduados, 2001)
La pudrición de la mazorca causada por Fusarium moniliforme ocasiona cuantiosas pérdidas en maíces (Zea mays L.) adaptados a los valles altos de México. Los objetivos de este trabajo fueron identificar loci para un carácter ...

Development and validation of red root marker-based haploid inducers that effectively complement R1-nj (Navajo) marker-based in vivo haploid identification in maize
(Crop Science Society of America (CSSA), 2016)
One of the critical limitations for the in vivo production of doubled haploid (DH) lines in maize (Zea mays L.) is the inability to effectively identify haploids in a significant proportion of induction crosses due to the ...

Heterosis and combining ability of CIMMYT's tropical early and intermediate maturity maize (Zea mays L.) germplasm
(Consiglio per la Ricerca e la sperimentazione in Agricoltura, Unità di Ricerca per la Maiscoltura, 1990)
A 10 parent diallel was formed to determine combining ability and heterotic patterns among CIMMYT'S tropically adapted, early and intermediate maturity maize (Zea mays L.) gene pools and populations. The parents and their ...

Sampling strategies for conserving maize diversity when forming core subsets using genetic markers
(Crop Science Society of America (CSSA), 2006)
Core subsets can be formed on the basis of molecular markers and different sampling strategies. This research used genetic markers on three maize data sets for studying 24 stratified sampling strategies to investigate which ...
Article
Developing and deploying climate-resilient maize varieties in the developing world
(Elsevier, 2018)
In sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and Asia maize yields remain variable due to climate shocks. Over the past decade extensive progress has been made on the development and delivery of climate-resilient maize. In 2016 over 70 000 ...

Cuantificación de antocianinas mediante espectroscopía de infrarrojo cercano y cromatografía líquida en maíces pigmentados.
(Sociedad Mexicana de Fitogenética, 2017)
Near infrared reflectance, NIR, is a method largely used for rapid and robust determination of chemical compounds. It is currently used to support breeding programs to analyze protein, oil, starch, moisture and ash content, ...
Article
Natural antisense transcripts are significantly involved in regulation of drought stress in maize
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
Natural antisense transcripts (NATs) are a prominent and complex class of regulatory RNAs. Using strand-specific RNA sequencing, we identified 1769 sense and antisense transcript pairs (NAT pairs) in two maize inbreds with ...
Article
Discovery and validation of genomic regions associated with resistance to maize lethal necrosis in four biparental populations
(Springer Verlag, 2018)
In sub-Saharan Africa, maize is the key determinant of food security for smallholder farmers. The sudden outbreak of maize lethal necrosis (MLN) disease is seriously threatening the maize production in the region. Understanding ...
Article
Heterotic patterns of eighty-eight white subtropical CIMMYT maize lines
(Consiglio per la Ricerca e la sperimentazione in Agricoltura, Unità di Ricerca per la Maiscoltura, 1992)
Hybrid-oriented source germplasm with established heterotic pattern is essential for initiating hybrid development. The objective of this study to identify and from heterotic groups of maize (Zea mays L.) with subtropical ...
Article
QTLs asociados al contenido de carotenos en hojas de maiz (Zea mays L.)
(Colegio de Postgraduados, 2012)
Los carotenos son pigmentos antioxidantes que captan foto¬nes del espectro de luz visible y protegen a los tejidos de las plantas contra la foto-oxidación, lo cual está relacionado con la tasa fotosintética y rendimiento ...
