Stepwise selection on homeologous PRR genes controlling flowering and maturity during soybean domestication

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2020
Adaptive changes in plant phenology are often considered to be a feature of the so-called ‘domestication syndrome’ that distinguishes modern crops from their wild progenitors, but little detailed evidence supports this idea.

Phased diploid genome assemblies and pan-genomes provide insights into the genetic history of apple domestication

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2020
Domestication of the apple was mainly driven by interspecific hybridization. In the present study, we report the haplotype-resolved genomes of the cultivated apple (Malus domestica cv. Gala) and its two major wild progenitors, M.

Dispersed emergence and protracted domestication of polyploid wheat uncovered by mosaic ancestral haploblock inference

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Major crops are all survivors of domestication bottlenecks. Studies have focused on the genetic loci related to the domestication syndrome, while the contribution of ancient haplotypes remains largely unknown.

Montane Ecoclines in Ancient Central Asia: A Preliminary Study of Agropastoral Economies in Juuku, Kyrgyzstan

open access: yesLand, 2023
In this paper, we use preliminary archaeological data spanning the Iron Age through Medieval periods (ca. 800 BCE to 1200 CE) in the Juuku Valley in Kyrgyzstan on the south side of Lake Issyk-Kul to model land use across vertical mountain zones. We have (

Resequencing of global Tartary buckwheat accessions reveals multiple domestication events and key loci associated with agronomic traits

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2021
Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum) is a nutritionally balanced and flavonoid-rich crop plant that has been in cultivation for 4000 years and is now grown globally.

Genome-Wide Footprints of Pig Domestication and Selection Revealed through Massive Parallel Sequencing of Pooled DNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Artificial selection has caused rapid evolution in domesticated species. The identification of selection footprints across domesticated genomes can contribute to uncover the genetic basis of phenotypic diversity.

Variety within domestication research: time, perceptions and interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The rich variety of domestication research in part comes from choices about which aspects of people’s lives are to be examined and in the detail of how this is managed within particular studies.

Simultaneous changes in seed size, oil content and protein content driven by selection of SWEET homologues during soybean domestication

open access: yesNational Science Review, 2020
Soybean accounts for more than half of the global production of oilseed and more than a quarter of the protein used globally for human food and animal feed. Soybean domestication involved parallel increases in seed size and oil content, and a concomitant

A genetic perspective on the domestication continuum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
For the sake of simplicity, genetic studies have generally modelled domestication within a framework of strong bottlenecks (also called founder events), reproductive isolation between wild and domestic populations and strong artificial selection. New DNA
