All of the alleles responsible for sweet corn are recessive, so it must be isolated from any field corn varieties that release pollen at the same time ; the endosperm develops from genes from both parents, and heterozygous kernels will be tough and starchy.

However supersweet varieties containing the sh2 allele must be grown in isolation from other varieties to avoid cross-pollination and resulting starchiness, either in space ( various sources quote minimum quarantine distances from 100 to 400 feet or 30 to 120 m ) or in time ( i. e., the supersweet corn does not pollinate at the same time as other corn in nearby fields ).
