Genome editing with CRISPR-Cas9 in the Illinois long term selection experiment
… work, we utilize this technology to study the Illinois Long Term Selection Experiment (ILTSE), a unique germplasm resource for studies of genome evolution and genetic variants that contribute to phenotypic traits. ILTSE genotypes, Illinois High Protein 1 and Illinois Low Protein 1, create …

Genetic, Genomic, and Breeding Approaches to Further Explore Kernel Composition Traits and Grain Yield in Maize
… and mating structures were investigated. Illinois Low Protein cycle 90 (ILP 90) was crossed and backcrossed to B73 and three populations derived, two per se and one testcross. High and low tails of distributions for starch were selected and a microarray platform was used to assess gene …

Phenotypic response to selection for protein in maize kernels
Long-term, divergent selection for protein concentration in maize grain has been conducted at the University of Illinois since 1896. Grain protein concentration in maize and other cereal crops is strongly associated with productivity, nutritional quality, and processing characteristics. Although …

Regulation of floury2-mRFP expression in response to long term selection for grain protein concentration in maize
The Illinois Long-term Selection Experiment is the longest running continuous genetics experiment in higher plants in the world. Seven hundred and twenty-one cycles of divergent selection for grain protein and oil concentration have produced populations with the known phenotypic extremes for this …

Discovery of novel regulators and genes in nitrogen utilization pathways in maize
… three genotypes that differ in N utilization: Illinois High Protein (IHP1), Illinois Low Protein (ILP1) and B73. IHP1 and ILP1 are inbred strains developed from the Illinois long term selection experiment (ILTSE) for seed nitrogen concentration. The developmental dynamics of nitrogen response …
