We discussed during EHRAB (25/11/15) Wang et. al. 2015 about corn domestication. I learned the effects of a single and simple mutation on a phenotype. A SNP in the tga1 gene changes the phenotype from short, small and capsulated of teosinte to tall, big and naked kernels of maize. The paper and the interesting discussion inspired me to make the little sketch below.
