Resumen:
In this work we studied six populations belonging to two races of maize native ofnorthwestern Argentina (NOA) in order to analyze the variation respect to the number ofheterochromatic blocks (knobs), using fluorescent banding techniques (DAPI banding).Cámara Hernández et al., 2011 (Razas de maíz nativas de la Argentina. Ed. Facultad deAgronomía, 168pp.) identified and described 28 native maize races from NOA. Two of theseraces, Amarillo Grande and Garrapata, differ by their morphological maize ears and grains, andgrow at different altitudes in the provinces of Jujuy and Salta (Argentina).
