2017 journal article

Defining the Role of the MADS-Box Gene, Zea Agamous-like1, a Target of Selection During Maize Domestication

JOURNAL OF HEREDITY, 109(3), 333–338.

By: D. Wills*, Z. Fang n, A. York *, J. Holland n  & J. Doebley *

Contributors: D. Wills*, Z. Fang n, A. York *, J. Holland n  & J. Doebley *

author keywords: flowering time; kernel row number; selection scan
MeSH headings : Alleles; Amino Acid Substitution; Domestication; Flowers / genetics; MADS Domain Proteins / genetics; Models, Genetic; Plant Proteins / genetics; Selection, Genetic; Zea mays / genetics; Zea mays / physiology
TL;DR: The results suggest that zagl1 may have been under selection during domestication to increase the size of the maize ear with the maize allele conferring larger ears with more kernels. (via Semantic Scholar)
