2004 journal article

Dissection of maize kernel composition and starch production by candidate gene association

PLANT CELL, 16(10), 2719–2733.

By: L. Wilson n, . Whitt*, A. Ibanez *, T. Rocheford *, M. Goodman n & E. Buckler*

MeSH headings : Base Sequence; DNA Primers; Genes, Plant; Genetic Linkage; Molecular Sequence Data; Quantitative Trait Loci; Starch / biosynthesis; Zea mays / anatomy & histology; Zea mays / genetics; Zea mays / metabolism
topics (OpenAlex): Genetic Mapping and Diversity in Plants and Animals; Genetics and Plant Breeding; Biofuel production and bioconversion
TL;DR: Despite starch concentration being only moderately heritable for this particular panel of diverse maize inbreds, high resolution was achieved when evaluating these starch candidate genes, and diverse alleles for breeding and further molecular analysis were identified. (via Semantic Scholar)

2002 journal article

Genetic diversity and selection in the maize starch pathway

PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 99(20), 12959–12962.

By: . Whitt n, L. Wilson n, M. Tenaillon  n, B. Gaut n & E. Buckler n

MeSH headings : Genetic Variation; Genome, Plant; Genotype; Molecular Sequence Data; Phenotype; Starch / genetics; Zea mays / genetics
topics (OpenAlex): Genetic Mapping and Diversity in Plants and Animals; Genetics and Plant Breeding; Genetic diversity and population structure
TL;DR: To evaluate the impact of selection across an agronomically important pathway, nucleotide diversity at six major genes involved in starch metabolism is surveyed and found unusually low genetic diversity and strong evidence of selection. (via Semantic Scholar)
