High segregation distortion in maize B73 x teosinte crosses

G. Wang, He, Q. Q., Xu, Z. K., and Song, R. T., High segregation distortion in maize B73 x teosinte crosses, vol. 11, pp. 693-706, 2012.

Two genetic linkage maps of cultivated maize inbred lines and teosinte species were constructed. One population comprised 81 F2 individuals derived from a cross between maize inbred line B73 and Zea mays ssp parviglumis, while the second consisted of 63 backcross individuals from a cross of maize inbred line B73 with Z. mays ssp diploperennis. In the B73 x Z. mays ssp parviglumis F2 population, 172 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were mapped to 10 chromosomes, which covered 2210.8 cM.
