Diversity in mitotic DNA repair efficiencies between commercial inbred maize lines and native Central American purple landraces by Carlos Víquez-Zamora, Sergio Castro-Pacheco, María Viñas, Pablo Bolaños-Villegas

“…High resolution melting analysis of the putative homologous DNA repair gene ZeaATM1 revealed that landraces P1 and P2 may harbor polymorphisms for this gene, and P1 may harbor other polymorphisms for the transcription factor ZeaSOG1 as well as the tumor suppressor ZeaRAD51 and recombinase ZeaBRCA1. The kinase gene ZeaATM1 was sequenced, and results indicate that in lines P1 and P2 there are polymorphisms near and within the FATC domain, a domain required for the activation of ATM1-mediated repair of DNA damage. …”
