520			_aHighland maize races were collected in Tarahumara and Babicoras regions in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico. In 1998, these races were evaluated for plant and ear traits to study local maize diversity. Previously known races of maize from the regions were also collected as well as a few introductions and locally adapted races. Cristalino de Chihuahua, Azul, Apachito, Gordo, and Rosita are cultivated mainly in the highlands of Tarahumara and Babicoras. New and introduced races are Hembra, Tulancingo, Celaya, Cónico Norteño, Tuxpeño, and Pepitilla, and improved varieties like Compuesto Blanco and Cafime. A new race, Hembra, had been bred locally in cross combinations between Celaya, Cónico Norteño, Tuxpeno, and Cristalino de Chihuahua (or Perla), and it has become a productive local race. The representative accessions formed a core subset representing regional maize diversity, and seed samples were conserved in CIMMYT and INIFAP germplasm banks. Some of the best accessions were seed increased for distribution to the farmers.
