Recent studies have suggested that domestication was a slower evolutionary process than was previously thought. We address this issue by quantifying rates of phenotypic change in crops undergoing domestication, including five crops from the Near East (Triticum monococcum, T. dicoccum, Hordeum vulgare, Pisum sativum, Lens culinaris) and six crops from other regions (Oryza sativa, Pennisetum glau...

Although global food demand is expected to increase 60% by 2050 compared with 2005/2007, the rise will be much greater in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Indeed, SSA is the region at greatest food security risk because by 2050 its population will increase 2.5-fold and demand for cereals approximately triple, whereas current levels of cereal consumption already depend on substantial imports. At issue ...

Introduction Grass pea (Lathyrus sativus) is one of the important food legumes in countries like Bangladesh, India, and Ethiopia. It has desirable agronomic characteristics, notably the ability to resist adverse climatic conditions. Nutritionally it is tasty and protein-rich. However over consumption can cause an upper motor neuron disease known as neurolathyrism, an irreversible paraparesis of...

The control of flowering is central to reproductive success in plants, and has a major impact on grain yield in crop species. The global importance of temperate cereal crops such as wheat and barley has meant emphasis has long been placed on understanding the genetics of flowering in order to enhance yield. Leads gained from the dissection of the molecular genetics of model species have combine...

Barley, Hordeum vulgare Linn. (family: Gramineae) is an important cereal crop of Rabi season grown in India. The chapattis made up of barley flour are very palatable and can be easily digested even by the persons suffering from stomach ailments. Besides an ideal feed and fodder for livestock, the crop has acquired the status of an industrial crop in malting and brewing. This crop could perform ...

Behavioral ecology and population ecology are two separate branches of ecology; studies linking the effect of individual behavior and population dynamics are rare. This paper connects a stochastic optimal foraging model of insect predators with an age structured population model of its prey. I modeled syrphid larvae feeding on cereal aphids, an interaction critical to cereal crops in Germany. T...
