Accession Names and Identifiers
Argentina 538
Type: Other or unclassified name
Group: NC7.ZEA.STANDARD
Names added by NC7 to standardize maize name format for Zea. Many old names consist of a three or four letter abbreviated country or state followed by a number. The NC7 standard is to write out the full country or state when possible.
Millard, Mark J. Iowa State University

CALCHAQUI Y
Type: Unverified name
Believed to be referring to a yellow Calchaqui subrace described on pages 126-133 of NRC publication 593. The name is a maize race name and is often presented when querying for the name. Other, more available accessions and more representative of the race are not presented in the simple search because descriptors are not indexed for the simple search. Racial classifications are observed and indicated in the primary race descriptor observations. Select the observations tab and click on the "primary race" descriptor to get a list of races. There is a link to the accessions that have been classified as the listed maize race.
