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 …

Genetic analysis of grain protein concentration and related traits in the Illinois protein strain recombinant inbred population of maize
… vegetative source tissues as the abundant zein proteins. However, zein protein is deficient in essential amino acids, and limited knowledge of zein regulation impedes approaches for achieving more nutritious Quality Protein Maize. We employ a candidate gene approach for investigating potential …
