Open DOI
Fresh Tissue Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) of Maize Meristems
In plants, final organ shape and position influence function and whole plant productivity. In Zea mays (maize), leaf, ear, and tassel morphology are all key agronomic features influencing yield. These aerial structures originate from ste...

Immunolocalization of Meiotic Proteins in Maize
Meiosis is an important generator of genetic diversity in plants. Maize, with its large and conspicuous chromosomes, is an attractive model for cytological studies of meiosis. Immunolocalization employs the antigen–antibody interaction t...

Analyzing Meiosis in Maize
Meiosis is central to sexual reproduction and the main source of genetic diversity in plants. Understanding how meiotic processes are regulated has direct relevance to agriculture. As meiotic recombination is the vehicle of plant breedin...

Detecting Meiotic Crossing-Overs in Maize Using Chromatin Immunoprecipitation-Sequencing (ChIP-seq)
During meiosis, homologous chromosomes engage in reciprocal exchanges of segments in a process known as crossing over (CO). About 85% of CO events in maize are products of the class I pathway. Class I COs are interference-sensitive, mean...

Dissecting Maize Aerial Meristems
The plant kingdom displays a wide array of shapes, and this morphology is tightly linked to function and productivity. For example, leaf size, shape, and arrangement around the stem define canopy architecture, influencing light intercept...

Methyl-Salicylate Clearing and Imaging of Maize Meristems
The final morphology of a plant is determined by much earlier events that occur during development. Meristems are critical for the development of the aerial parts of plants, such as leaves and stems. The morphology of these meristems, wh...

Maize Developmental Biology: Fundamental Discoveries Unlocking Innovation
Maize ( Zea mays ) is a cornerstone of agriculture and global genetics research. Every year more than 200 million hectares of maize are grown worldwide for human and animal consumption, and biofuel and energy production. Maize has also b...

Preparation of Meiotic Chromosome Spreads and Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization of Maize Meiotic Chromosomes
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a cytogenetic technique where fluorescently labeled DNA probes are hybridized to their complementary sequences on chromosomes, allowing identification of the location of the selected DNA seque...

Imaging Mature Maize Morphology
Zea mays (maize) is a critical global crop, generating more than 1 billion metric tons of grain annually. Plant morphology is tightly associated with final yield and is determined by the process of development. Accurate assessment and re...

Site-Specific Measurement of Meiotic Crossing-Over Rate with Droplet Digital PCR
Understanding the frequency and distribution of meiotic crossovers (COs) is critical for both fundamental studies on meiosis and for practical applications in plant breeding, where controlling recombination can accelerate crop improvemen...
