Abstract:
The review represents the literature data and the data of personal research demonstrating the modern achievements in molecular-genetic analysis of maize (Zea mays L.). The importance of the use of DNA-technologies in genetics, breeding and seed-production of maize is shown. The examples of application of molecular-genetic markers in breeding process to increase its efficacy are demonstrated.

Modern Molecular Taxonomy
Advancements in molecular biology have revolutionized the identification and characterization of bacteria, with multiple methods leveraging DNA sequencing for enhanced precision. As sequencing technologies improve and costs decline, these approaches are increasingly used in clinical, environmental, and evolutionary studies.Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) examines several housekeeping genes, essential chromosomal genes encoding cellular functions, to distinguish strains. Approximately...
Plant Breeding and Biotechnology
Crop cultivation has a long history in human civilization, with records showing the cultivation of cereal plants beginning at around 8000 BC. This early plant breeding was developed primarily to provide a steady supply of food.
