Dispersal of Transgenes through Maize Seed Systems in Mexico

OBJECTIVES: Current models of transgene dispersal focus on gene flow via pollen while neglecting seed, a vital vehicle for gene flow in centers of crop origin and diversity. We analyze the dispersal of maize transgenes via seeds in Mexico, the crop's cradle. METHODS: We use immunoassays (ELISA)...
