POWR1 is a domestication gene pleiotropically regulating seed quality and yield in soybean
Nature Communications, 2022 In soybean production, level of seed protein frequently shows a negative correlation with seed oil content and yield. Here, the authors report a CCT gene pleiotropically regulates these traits and the selection of larger seeds determining allele leads to

Taming transposable elements in vertebrates: from epigenetic silencing to domestication.
Trends in Genetics, 2022 Transposable element (TE)-derived sequences are ubiquitous in most eukaryotic genomes known to date. Because their expression and mobility can lead to genomic instability, several pathways have evolved to control TEs.

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2022 The nature of domestication is often misunderstood. Most definitions of the process are anthropocentric and center on human intentionality, which minimizes the role of unconscious selection and also excludes non-human domesticators.

Investigating Indirect and Direct Reputation Formation in Asian Elephants (Elephas maximus)
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 Reputation is a key component in social interactions of group-living animals and appears to play a role in the establishment of cooperation. Animals can form a reputation of an individual by directly interacting with them or by observing them interact ...

Current Biology, 2022 Rice is a staple food crop for more than one-third of the global population (http://www.sustainablerice.org/), of which 90% live at or near the poverty line. Thus, rice genetic improvement is important for global food security and is critical for enhancing socioeconomic benefits and reducing the environmental impacts of agriculture.

Large-scale whole-genome resequencing unravels the domestication history of Cannabis sativa
Science Advances, 2021 Genome analyses provide new insights into the global domestication history of Cannabis sativa and its two main cannabinoids. Cannabis sativa has long been an important source of fiber extracted from hemp and both medicinal and recreational drugs based on

Dog domestication and the dual dispersal of people and dogs into the Americas
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021 Advances in the isolation and sequencing of ancient DNA have begun to reveal the population histories of both people and dogs. Over the last 10,000 y, the genetic signatures of ancient dog remains have been linked with known human dispersals in regions ...

Locus-specific view of flax domestication history [PDF]
, 2011 Crop domestication has been inferred genetically from neutral markers and increasingly from specific domestication-associated loci. However, some crops are utilized for multiple purposes that may or may not be reflected in a single domestication ...
