Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Markers Associated with Maize Kernel Oil Concentration in an Illinois High Protein × Illinois Low Protein Cross
TL;DR: The Illinois Long Term Selection Strains offer a unique opportunity to investigate the quantitative genetic basis of kernel chemical traits, and the number and magnitude of quantitative trait loci influencing kernel oil concentration and kernel weight are determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Markers in Plant Improvement: Manipulation of Genes Affecting Quantitative Traits
TL;DR: The theory and results associated with the use of molecular markers to manipulate QTL in plant breeding programs are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The genetic architecture of response to long-term artificial selection for oil concentration in the maize kernel.

TL;DR: An association study is used to infer the genetic basis of dramatic changes that occurred in response to selection for changes in oil concentration, which is consistent with hitchhiking and small population size during selection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maize selection passes the century mark: a unique resource for 21st century genomics
TL;DR: The Illinois Long-Term Selection Experiment for grain protein and oil concentration in maize is the longest continuous genetics experiment in higher plants, and the use of functional genomics tools in this unique genetic resource provides exciting opportunities not only to discover the genes that contribute to phenotypic differences but also to investigate issues such as the response of plant genomes to artificial selection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Markers and Grouping of Parents in Maize Breeding Programs
TL;DR: Data was analyzed to evaluate use of molecular marker date to predict yield potential of hybrids, assign inbreds to heterotic groups, and determine to which of the two inbred parents of a single cross a donor line is most closely related.
