0PI 217404Argentine PopZea mays L. subsp. mays ArgentinaNC7KERNELS1954COLLECTEDPRE 05/04/1954LandraceA small-eared, tiny-kernelled, prolific variety from the Argentine. It has a red pericarp. It is similar to the grave popcorns of Argentina. This accession was part of the donor's collection of maize varieties demonstrating extreme variation. They were considered as endemic and were maintained as germplasm for breeding work and were part of the Anderson and Brown collection of "standard exotics". They were originally collected from farmers who maintained them as open-pollinated varieties.1177450PI 217404
1PI 217405GourdseedZea mays L. subsp. mays Iowa, United StatesNC7KERNELS1954DONATED05/04/1954LandraceA white, extremely dented corn from the southern United States. Varieties like this accession crossed with "northern flints" to give us modern Corn Belt Dent. Corn Belt Dent is the classification of maize grown in the largest U.S. acreage. This accession was part of the donor's collection of maize varieties demonstrating extreme variation. They were considered as endemic and were maintained as germplasm for breeding work and were part of the Anderson and Brown collection of "standard exotics". They were originally collected from farmers who maintained them as open-pollinated varieties.1177451PI 217405
2PI 217406Japanese Hull-lessZea mays L. subsp. mays Iowa, United StatesNC7KERNELS1954DONATED05/04/1954LandraceNeither Japanese nor hull-less, this high quality rice popcorn is very similar to the ancient popcorns grown near Mexico City. Cells are difficult to smear for chromosome observations. Chromosomes have low knob numbers. Ears have high row numbers and are more or less fasciated. This accession was part of the donor's collection of maize varieties demonstrating extreme variation. They were considered as endemic and were maintained as germplasm for breeding work and were part of the Anderson and Brown collection of "standard exotics". They were originally collected from farmers who maintained them as open-pollinated varieties.1177454PI 217406
3PI 217407'Ladyfinger'Zea mays L. subsp. mays Iowa, United StatesNC7KERNELS1954DONATED05/04/1954LandraceA late-maturing, prolific, high quality popcorn. It is very similar in ear morphology to the ancient popcorns of Peruvian graves. This accession was part of the donor's collection of maize varieties demonstrating extreme variation. They were considered as endemic and were maintained as germplasm for breeding work and were part of the Anderson and Brown collection of "standard exotics". They were originally collected from farmers who maintained them as open-pollinated varieties.1177455PI 217407
4PI 217408Longfellow FlintZea mays L. subsp. mays Iowa, United StatesNC7KERNELS1954DONATED05/04/1954LandraceA typical yellow 8-rowed Northern Flint. It can be successfully grown as far south as Saint Louis, Missouri. This accession was part of the donor's collection of maize varieties demonstrating extreme variation. They were considered as endemic and were maintained as germplasm for breeding work and were part of the Anderson and Brown collection of "standard exotics". They were originally collected from farmers who maintained them as open-pollinated varieties.1177458PI 217408
5PI 217409Maiz ChapaloteZea mays L. subsp. mays MexicoNC7KERNELS1954COLLECTEDPRE 05/04/1954LandracePrimitive popcorn from western Mexico. It shows close similarity to teosinte in various characters. Ears have a narrow cob, with kernels of an irregular shape and a brown pericarp. Chromosomes have large knobs and the number of knobs are variable from plant to plant. This accession was part of the donor's collection of maize varieties demonstrating extreme variation. They were considered as endemic and were maintained as germplasm for breeding work and were part of the Anderson and Brown collection of "standard exotics". They were originally collected from farmers who maintained them as open-pollinated varieties.1177459PI 217409
6PI 217410Papago Flour CornZea mays L. subsp. mays Arizona, United StatesNC7KERNELS1954COLLECTEDPRE 05/04/1954Obtained from the Papago indians in the desert south of Tucson, Arizona.LandraceA yellow flour corn of high quality for human food. It is drought resistant and early maturing in late plantings. Seedlings have a long mesocotyl and plants have slender leaves. This accession was part of the donor's collection of maize varieties demonstrating extreme variation. They were considered as endemic and were maintained as germplasm for breeding work and were part of the Anderson and Brown collection of "standard exotics". They were originally collected from farmers who maintained them as open-pollinated varieties.1177460PI 217410
7PI 217411Tama FlintZea mays L. subsp. mays Iowa, United StatesNC7KERNELS1954COLLECTEDPRE 05/04/1954LandraceEssentially a Northern Flint variety from the Sac and Fox Indians of Iowa. Slightly mixed with Great Plains maize. This accession was part of the donor's collection of maize varieties demonstrating extreme variation. They were considered as endemic and were maintained as germplasm for breeding work and were part of the Anderson and Brown collection of "standard exotics". They were originally collected from farmers who maintained them as open-pollinated varieties.1177461PI 217411
