The Evolution of Corn

The Evolution of Corn

This site provides information on the evolution on corn. Students will be able to learn how teosinte, corn’s wild ancestor, and modern maize are like and how the differences between these two are in a few genes. There are also three HHMI Holiday Lecture Connection videos in which Dr. David Kingsley discusses the unique history and evolution of corn.
