Genome sequencing of the extinct Eurasian wild aurochs, Bos primigenius, illuminates the phylogeography and evolution of cattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Domestication of the now-extinct wild aurochs, Bos primigenius, gave rise to the two major domestic extant cattle taxa, B. taurus and B. indicus.

Palaeogenomics of animal domestication: computational modelling of ancestry, demography and selection

open access: yes, 2020
The study of animal domestication is in the midst of a genomic revolution, as technological advances dramatically increase the availability of DNA sequence data from ancient and modern domestic populations.

Incorporation of aurochs into a cattle herd in Neolithic Europe: single event or breeding? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Domestication is an ongoing process continuously changing the lives of animals and humans and the environment. For the majority of European cattle (Bos taurus) genetic and archaeozoological evidence support initial domestication ca. 11’000 BP in the Near

Fluctuation of ecological niches and geographic range shifts along chile pepper's domestication gradient

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Domestication is an ongoing well‐described process. However, while many have studied the changes domestication causes in plant genetics, few have explored its impact on the portion of the geographic landscape in which the plants exist.

Reconsidering domestication from a process archaeology perspective

open access: yes, 2021
Process philosophy offers a metaphysical foundation for domestication studies. This grounding is especially important given the European colonialist origin of ‘domestication’ as a term and 19th century cultural project.
