China,USA 507 Collection of more than 500 inbreds for association mapping panel (AMP) with different populations including non-stiff-stock (NSS); Stiff-stock (SS); Tropical and Semi-tropical (TST).
2 Sweet corn(Coming soon) Sweet EastAsia China 295 Sweet corn is a cereal with a high sugar content. Sweet corn is the result of a naturally occurring recessive mutation in the genes which control conversion of sugar to starch inside the ENO of the corn kernel.
3 Waxy corn(Coming soon) Waxy EastAsia China 318 Waxy corn contains more amylopectin or waxy starch than regular dent corn, Waxy maize yield about 3.5% less than their normal dent counterparts and has to be isolated from any nearby normal maize fields by at least 200 meters.
4 Teosinte panel(Coming soon) Teo America Mexico,USA 184 Teosintes are critical components of maize evolution. According to the most widely held evolutionary model,  the crop was derived directly from Z. m. parviglumis; but in some varieties up to 20% of its genetic material came from Z. m. mexicana through introgression
