0PI 708509G-42Zea luxurians (Durieu & Asch.) R. M. Bird Chiquimula, GuatemalaNC71992COLLECTED01/02/19762 km north of Ipala on road to Chiquimula.14.63333333, -89.63333333800Open dry country of subtropical thorny deciduous forest with Ipomea, Pedilanthus, Crescentia, and Guazuma. Mostly along "stream bed" depression in corn field showing signs of flash flooding; very fine loose rich volcanic soil.Wild materialPlants 2 to 3.5 meters tall. The largest with 3 main stems (two from base, with 8 and 17 laterals respectively, and one main lateral, this with 6 tertiary branches), the open grown ones in maize field with several branches from very base.1087275PI 708509
1PI 441933G-5Zea luxurians (Durieu & Asch.) R. M. Bird Jutiapa, GuatemalaNC7SEED1980COLLECTED12/19751.2 km north of El Progreso on road to Jalapa.14.35000000, -89.850000001050Maize fields, gully, and hedgerows.Wild materialPlants very much past ripeness (exceptionally dry year in this region), the husks tattered from bird predation, but some seeds still in husks, especially where leafsheaths and husk have been entwined by an ubiquitous purple Ipomea. Seeds gathered by shaking seeds out over a plastic sheet, over 1 kg gathered by two people in about 2 hours. Plants very variable in appearance: a) Completely free of long slender lateral branches (i.e., unbranched) and very slender themselves, to 2.5 meters tall if growing in densest thickets with much shade and intense competition from tall herbs (Tithonia, etc.). b) Robust and branched above, with 3-7 lateral branches, if initially shaded in their lower portions (during early growth) and in competition with shorter plants. c) Branched, with 7 to 9 branches from very base if growing in among the maize plants and free of shading, here to only 1.2 meters tall (i.e. branching quite dependent on whether plants open grown or shade grown). Plants all strictly annual, without any rhizomes. No F1 seen or any evidence of hybridization.1336869PI 441933
