The utility of environmental data from traditionalvarieties for climate-adaptive maize breeding

Forrest Li, Daniel J. Gates, Edward S. Buckler, Matthew B. Hufford, Garrett M. Janzen, Rubén Rellán‐Álvarez, Fausto Rodríguez-Zapata, J. Alberto Romero Navarro, Ruairidh J. H. Sawers, Samantha J. Snodgrass, Kai Sonder, Martha C. Willcox, Sarah Hearne, Jeffrey Ross‐Ibarra, Daniel E. Runcie

This study evaluates the use of environmental and genomic data to identify climate-adaptive maize varieties, finding that genomic data better predict yield traits than environmental data alone.

Population genetic structure of the maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais, in southern Mexico

Jennifer Baltzegar, Michael S. Jones, Martha C. Willcox, Janine M. Ramsey, Fred L. Gould

This study finds significant genetic population structure in maize weevils from southern Mexico using genome-wide SNP data, suggesting local factors shape genetic differentiation.
