Reconsidering domestication of legumes versus cereals in the ancient near east.
In this paper, we discuss, from both biological and cultural perspectives, the ancient human-plant liaison that gave rise to Near Eastern agriculture. We explain the biological aspects of Near Eastern plant domestication by a comparative analysis of legume vs. cereal crop evolution. This comparison is illustrated by the natural distribution, ecological affinity, physiology, population structure...
متن کاملOpen for Competition: Domesticates, Parasitic Domesticoids and the Agricultural Niche
This paper explores the relationship of weeds and crop parasites in the domestication of crop-plants within the Old World, drawing predominately on China and the Near East. This relationship is explored using the concept of niche construction in which the act of cultivation sets about chains of feedback in which the ecological worlds of plants and humans became increasingly intertwined resultin...
متن کاملDetecting multiple origins of domesticated crops.
C rop domestication has long been studied both as a model for understanding the process of evolution (1) and for gaining insights into the history of human civilization (2). In recent decades, a wealth of neutral molecular markers (e.g., SNPs, microsatellites, amplified fragment length polymorphisms) has become available for many crop species, permitting genomewide examinations of genetic diver...
متن کاملDomestication of Persian Shallot (Allium hirtifolium) as Cultivated Crop
Due to highly consumption of extensive wild germplasm of Allium hirtifolium Boiss (Mooseer) in food and medicinal industry, exploration and domestication process have been done in Golestan province (Gorgan). Economic productions of domesticated Persian Shallot plants need to be improved through breeding process. The successes of domesticated accessions improvement program depend on the availabl...
متن کاملPlant domestication versus crop evolution: a conceptual framework for cereals and grain legumes.
'Domestication syndrome' (DS) denotes differences between domesticated plants and their wild progenitors. Crop plants are dynamic entities; hence, not all parameters distinguishing wild progenitors from cultigens resulted from domestication. In this opinion article, we refine the DS concept using agronomic, genetic, and archaeobotanical considerations by distinguishing crucial domestication tra...
