A recent conference of plant biologists held in Mexico brought together scientists working on a wide range of species from the model organism Arabidopsis thaliana to crops such as maize tomato and rice. Appropriately for the locale research relevant to major Central and South American crops was conspicuous. A few of the highlights in the areas of maize and tomato genetics and plant computational biology are reported here. Maize genomics genetics and epigenetics Maize corn Zea mays L. was domesticated from a species of wild teosinte the common name for a group of annual and perennial species of Zea native to Mexico and Central America. Phylogenetic evidence suggests that maize arose from a single domestication event that occurred in Mexico about 9 000 years ago and which gave rise to a group of ancient landrace varieties. As the main center of origin and domestication Mexico has the largest diversity of maize genetic resources. John Jones Washington State University Pullman USA presented evidence from fossilized pollen suggesting that the ancient farmers of San Andres Tabasco in southern Mexico were .
