Population Genetics of Duplicated Disease-Defense Genes, hm1 and hm2, in Maize (Zea mays ssp. mays L.) and Its Wild Ancestor (Zea mays ssp. parviglumis)

Plant defense genes are subject to nonneutral evolutionary dynamics. Here we investigate the evolutionary dynamics of the duplicated defense genes hm1 and hm2 in maize and its wild ancestor Zea mays ssp. parviglumis. Both genes have been shown to confer resistance to the fungal pathogen Cochliobolus...
