Abstract

The article presents an analysis of the polymorphism of nucleotide sequences of the genes presumably associated with the parthenogenetic development of the embryo and endosperm in maize. Sequencing and subsequent multiple alignment of transcripts of the target genes (Hdt104, Chr106, Fie1 and Fie2) studied in the work of the AT-1, AT-3 and AT-4 parthenogenetic maize lines and the reference line B73 determined the presence of SNP, deletions and insertions. The phylogenetic trees for the studied genes were constructed.
