Panzea

Panzea is an NSF-funded project called "Biology of Rare Alleles in Maize and its Wild Relatives". We are investigating the connection between phenotype (what we see) and genotype (the genes underlying the phenotype) - of complex traits in maize and its wild relative, teosinte, and specifically in how rare genetic variations contribute to overall plant function. These studies will enrich our knowledge of evolution, sustainable agriculture, and genetic diversity and conservation. Over the 10 years of the project, we have trained many new scientists at all levels and generated key resources for the public, teachers, and scientific researchers.

  From here you can obtain the genotypic and phenotypic datasets produced by this project as flat files. You can also perform custom searches on our large genotypic data sets, to obtain smaller subsets of data for chromosomal regions or taxa subsets of interest. Two different genotype searches are available: one for GBS genotypes, and another for other types of genotypes (from maize HapMapV1 and V2, the MaizeSNP50 Bead Chip, and traditional SNPs).
