The maize recombination landscape evolved during domestication Open
Meiotic recombination is an important evolutionary process because it can increase the amount of genetic variation within populations through the breakage of unfavorable linkages and creation of novel allelic combinations. Despite the plet…

Coregulation of ribosomal RNA with hundreds of genes contributes to phenotypic variation Open
Ribosomal repeats occupy 5% of a plant genome, yet there has been little study of their diversity in the modern age of genomics. Ribosomal copy number and expression variation present an opportunity to tap a novel source of diversity. In t…

The maize W22 genome provides a foundation for functional genomics and transposon biology Open
The maize W22 inbred has served as a platform for maize genetics since the mid twentieth century. To streamline maize genome analyses, we have sequenced and de novo assembled a W22 reference genome using short-read sequencing technologies.…

Background Characterization of genetic variations in maize has been challenging, mainly due to deterioration of collinearity between individual genomes in the species. An international consortium of maize research groups combined resources…
