Shifts in stomatal traits following the domestication of plant species.
Stomata are the major gates regulating substrate availability for photosynthesis and water loss. Although both processes are critical to yield and to resource-use efficiency, we lack a comprehensive picture on how domestication and further breeding have impacted on leaf stomata. To fill this gap, stomatal sizes and densities were screened in cultivated and wild ancestor representatives of a uni...
متن کاملGenetic Architecture of Domestication-Related Traits in Maize.
Strong directional selection occurred during the domestication of maize from its wild ancestor teosinte, reducing its genetic diversity, particularly at genes controlling domestication-related traits. Nevertheless, variability for some domestication-related traits is maintained in maize. The genetic basis of this could be sequence variation at the same key genes controlling maize-teosinte diffe...
متن کاملQTL Mapping of Domestication-related Traits in Soybean (Glycine max)
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Understanding the genetic basis underlying domestication-related traits (DRTs) is important in order to use wild germplasm efficiently for improving yield, stress tolerance and quality of crops. This study was conducted to characterize the genetic basis of DRTs in soybean (Glycine max) using quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping. METHODS A population of 96 recombinant inb...
متن کاملThe Complex Inheritance of Maize Domestication Traits and Gene Expression
The genetic basis for morphological change in divergent species is a central question in evolutionary biology. The domestication of maize from its wild progenitor, teosinte, is an excellent system to address this question. We explore the large effect on domestication phenotypes of a poorly understood region of the maize genome using a chromosome five specific mapping population. Unlike other la...
متن کاملFrom Crop Domestication to Super-domestication
Research related to crop domestication has been transformed by technologies and discoveries in the genome sciences as well as information-related sciences that are providing new tools for bioinformatics and systems' biology. Rapid progress in archaeobotany and ethnobotany are also contributing new knowledge to understanding crop domestication. This sense of rapid progress is encapsulated in thi...
