Sweeter, Plumper
Corn Is Developed
CHAMPAIGN*, III. <U.R)—Sweet-
er, plumper, longer-lasting corn—
the first truly new strain in cen-
turies—is promised in the scienti-
fic findings of Prof. John R.
Laughnan, botanist at the Uni-
versity of Illinois.
In the professional journal. Ge-
netics, Laughnan reported that he
has developed a strain of corn four
times as sweet as any sweet corn
now known. The new type is 10
times sweeter than field corn, he
added.
He said his work in genetics and
biochemistry resulted in the im-
proved strain, the first entirely
new type since Columbus discov-
ered America and the Puritans
marveled at the maize eaten by
the Indians.
The new strain, he said, would
not begin to lose its flavor as soon
as it was picked, a major problem
in the marketing of present
strains. He said the kernels would
be plumper but otherwise there
would be little change in appear-
ance.
Incorporation of the new type
into present corn strains for mar-
keting would probably take from
three to six years, Laughnan said.
He said the new advantages do
not come from the "sugar1* inheri-
tance factor, or gene, of present
sweet corn. They are induced by
another gene, called "shrunken-2"
the botanist said. The latter gene
he explained, inhibits the normal
com process of converting sugar
to startch.
