Response of the maize genome to external and cellular environments
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe objective of this thesis was to investigate the effects of different types of environments on the structure and functioning of the maize genome. The external environment was altered by treatment of maize kernels with the fungicide captan and by adding coal fly ash and fly ash leachate to the soil. The cellular environment was investigated by observing differences in the structure and function of genomes of hybrids as compared to inbred lines.
