Wild Crop Relatives: Genomic and Breeding Resources: Cereals
The first maize-teosinte hybrid experiments can be traced back to the year 1896 (
Harshberger 1896). In the past 100 years, through hybridization of maize with
teosinte or teosinte with teosinte, a series of genetic linkage maps was
constructed.
