Life experience rather than domestication accounts for dogs’ increased oxytocin release during social contact with humans

Scientific Reports, 2021
Dogs’ increased human-directed sociability compared to wolves may be the result of increased oxytocin system activity and decreased stress responses, but comparative studies accounting for life experience are lacking. We compared hand-raised, pack-living

The bracteatus pineapple genome and domestication of clonally propagated crops [PDF]

, 2019
Domestication of clonally propagated crops such as pineapple from South America was hypothesized to be a 'one-step operation'. We sequenced the genome of Ananas comosus var.
