New Phytologist.
MeSH headings : Flowers / genetics; Zea mays / genetics; Phenotype; Photoperiod
TL;DR:
These findings show how phenotypic selection can rapidly shift the flowering phenology and plasticity of maize and demonstrate that selecting crops to local conditions can accelerate adaptation to climate change.
