The disclosure concerns compositions and methods for determining the zygosity of corn plants containing one or more floury2 (fl2) mutations. In embodiments, the disclosure concerns a gene specific PCR-based molecular (KASPar&#xae;) assay for identifying the floury2 trait in plants. In certain embodiments, compositions and methods are disclosed for determining the zygosity of corn plants with respect to the fl2 allele. In particular embodiments, the assay may be used for fl2 germplasm identification, accelerating introgression and molecular breeding programs in corn and other plants.

Floury 2 gene-specific assay in maize for floury (fl2) trait introgression

This disclosure concerns specific naturally-occurring mutant maize cad2 genes, which altered genes contribute to the bm1 maize phenotype in particular maize lines. In some embodiments, compositions and methods are provided that utilize a nucleic acid molecule comprising a mutant cad2 gene, and/or markers linked to a mutant cad2gene.

Gene and variations associate with BM1 phenotype, molecular markers, and their use

The invention provides seed and plants of the hybrid corn variety designated 980001. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of the variety 980001, and to methods for producing a corn plant produced by crossing a corn plant of variety 980001 with itself or with another corn plant, such as a plant of another variety. The invention further relates to genetic complements of plants of variety 980001.

Hybrid corn variety 980001

An inbred corn line, designated SY0705W, the plants and seeds of the inbred corn line SY0705W, methods for producing a corn plant, either inbred or hybrid, produced by crossing the inbred corn line SY0705W with itself or with another corn plant, and hybrid corn seeds and plants produced by crossing the inbred line SY0705W with another corn line or plant and to methods for producing a corn plant containing in its genetic material one or more transgenes and to the transgenic corn plants produced by that method. This invention also relates to inbred corn lines derived from inbred corn line SY0705W, to methods for producing other inbred corn lines derived from inbred corn line SY0705W and to the inbred corn lines derived by the use of those methods.
