Weber, D. F.

Progress is reported in research on the cytogenetics of maize. The study has identified genetic factors that control the meiotic process, genetic recombination, lipid biosynthesis, and the free amino acid pool. It has also been determined that distributive pairing, gene compensation, and gene magnification do not occur in maize. (ACR)
