Cover: The improved land race `Zapalote Chico 2451F' (Widstrom et al., p. 444-445) with purple pigment served as the recurrent parent to develop the `Shrunken Zapalote Chico', right (Crop Sci. 40:1837-1838). Both germplasm releases have insect resistance conferred by the flavone glycoside maysin. (Photo by Robert Beiriger.)
