Escape to Ferality: The Endoferal Origin of Weedy Rice from Crop Rice through De-Domestication. [PDF]

, 2016
Domestication is the hallmark of evolution and civilization and harnesses biodiversity through selection for specific traits. In regions where domesticated lines are grown near wild relatives, congeneric sources of aggressive weedy genotypes cause major ...

Staging an Experience of Cultural Heritage Preservation: Consumers' Willingness to Pay for Heirloom Rice in the Philippines

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Cordillera Administrative Region in the Philippines is home to terraced rice embedded in centuries of cultural heritage. However, weak market incentives threaten sustained production, jeopardizing indigenous communities' cultural heritage and the in situ biodiversity of rice genetic resources.

Consistent effects of independent domestication events on the plant microbiota [PDF]

The effect of plant domestication on plant-microbe interactions remains difficult to prove. In this study, we provide evidence of a domestication effect on the composition and abundance of the plant microbiota.

Genetic Diversity and Domestication Footprints of Chinese Cherry [Cerasus pseudocerasus (Lindl.) G.Don] as Revealed by Nuclear Microsatellites

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Chinese cherry [Cerasus pseudocerasus (Lindl.) G.Don] is a commercially important fruit crop in China, but its structure patterns and domestication history remain imprecise. To address these questions, we estimated the genetic structure and domestication

Linking community structure and climate vulnerability in desert plant assemblages of southern California

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Desert plant assemblages in southern California provide an opportunity to link patterns of community structure with climate‐driven vulnerability in a rapidly changing environment. California sustains an exceptionally diverse flora of approximately 4300 plant species, with 31% identified as endemic.

‘Turkeys Cannot Vote for Christmas’: Why Epistemic Disobedience in an Anti‐Black World Matters

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Never in the history of global coloniality has the idea of epistemic disobedience been as important as in the 21st century. This is not only because the struggle for decolonisation has shifted from physical confrontation between the coloniser and the colonised into a battle of ideas but also because the former has deployed the idea of ...

The Multifaceted Origin of Taurine Cattle Reflected by the Mitochondrial Genome [PDF]

, 2009
A Neolithic domestication of taurine cattle in the Fertile Crescent from local aurochsen (Bos primigenius) is generally accepted, but a genetic contribution from European aurochsen has been proposed.

Taming a Blue Gas—Structure and Chemistry of Hexafluorothioacetone

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Hexafluorothioacetone (1), a blue gas at r.t., was synthesized by flash vacuum pyrolysis of its cyclic dimer at 660°C. We discuss fundamental properties of elusive 1, including single‐crystal structure and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, despite its tendency to dimerize even at –74°C.

DNA sequence diversity and the origin of cultivated safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.; Asteraceae) [PDF]

, 2007
Background Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) is a diploid oilseed crop whose origin is largely unknown. Safflower is widely believed to have been domesticated over 4,000 years ago somewhere in the Fertile Crescent.
