A focused research portal for the maize genome and proteome.
Explore the B73 NAM 5.0 reference genome, search live maize protein records, navigate chromosomes, and review curated Indian maize germplasm metadata with explicit source provenance.
B73 NAM 5.0 genome browser
The embedded JBrowse 2 view uses the designated B73 reference assembly. Select a chromosome or enter a coordinate/gene identifier and load it directly.
Maize Proteome Explorer
Search UniProtKB live for Zea mays (NCBI Taxonomy 4577). Results are retrieved at query time and linked back to the source record.
Search proteins
Try: opaque2, liguleless, DREB, kinase, or a UniProt accession. FASTA downloads are served directly by UniProt.

Indian maize germplasm catalogue
These are curated cultivar/hybrid metadata records. They are not labelled as sequenced genomes unless an authoritative public assembly/accession is verified.
| Cultivar / hybrid | Class | Verified reported features | Genome status in GDR-MaizeGP | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pusa Vivek QPM 9 Improved | Biofortified QPM hybrid | Provitamin-A 8.15 ppm; lysine 2.67% in protein; tryptophan 0.74% in protein; reported grain yield 55.9 q/ha (NHZ) and 59.2 q/ha (PZ). | ICAR | |
| DMRH 1308 | High-yielding hybrid | ICAR describes wider adaptability and reports grain yield of 100 q/ha. | ICAR | |
| Pusa HM4 Male Sterile Baby Corn (Shishu) (ABSH4-1) | Baby corn hybrid | Reported baby-corn yield 70.7 q/ha with husk and 22.7 q/ha without husk; green fodder 270.1 q/ha; first picking at 53 days. | ICAR |

Scientific boundary
Indian cultivar records are kept separate from sequenced reference assemblies. Future cultivar-specific genome tracks should only be activated after public assembly/variant accessions and provenance are verified.
