Harvest Techniques: Hand-Pulling and Its Potential Impact on the Archaeobotanical Record Vis a Vis Near Eastern Plant Domestication

Agronomy, 2021
A “cultivation prior to domestication”, or a “pre-domestication cultivation” phase features in many reconstructions of Near Eastern plant domestication.

Archaeogenomic insights into the adaptation of plants to the human environment : pushing plant–hominin co-evolution back to the Pliocene [PDF]

, 2015
The colonization of the human environment by plants, and the consequent evolution of domesticated forms is increasingly being viewed as a co-evolutionary plant–human process that occurred over a long time period, with evidence for the co-evolutionary ...

Achieving High‐Density and Stress‐Resilient Maize Breeding Via Germplasm Innovation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Global population growth and climate change have exacerbated the global food crisis. This perspective presents a conceptual framework focusing on enhancing population advantages. Several novel breeding objectives are proposed to improve density tolerance and stress resistance for yield improvement.

PlantGFM: A Genomic Foundation Model for Discovery and Creation of Plant Genes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A plant genomic foundation model pre‐trained on 12 species enables both accurate gene prediction and de novo gene design. Through AI‐human knowledge screening, seven designed sequences showed transcriptional activity in plants, with two expressing stable proteins—demonstrating the first DNA‐RNA‐protein expression of LLM‐generated genes in plants and ...

Total Chemical Synthesis of Interleukin‐15 and Interleukin‐2: Taming Protein Hydrophobicity and Aggregation by a Versatile Solubilizing Strategy

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A reducible solubilizing tag strategy (RST‐2.0) enables the synthesis, purification and ligation of difficult peptides while being readily removable just during folding, which overcomes the common challenges from protein hydrophobicity and aggregation. With this method, we achieved the first total synthesis of native and N‐glycosylated IL‐15 as well as

Testing Domestication Scenarios of Lima Bean (Phaseolus lunatus L.) in Mesoamerica: Insights from Genome-Wide Genetic Markers

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Plant domestication can be seen as a long-term process that involves a complex interplay among demographic processes and evolutionary forces. Previous studies have suggested two domestication scenarios for Lima bean in Mesoamerica: two separate ...

Impact of selection and domestication on hindlimb bones of modern reindeer populations:archaeological implications for early reindeer management by Sámi in Fennoscandia

, 2021
For centuries, reindeer herding has been an integral part of the subsistence and culture among the Sámi of northern Fennoscandia. Despite the importance of this husbandry in their history, the timing and details of early reindeer domestication are still ...

Enantioselective Synthesis of a New Class of Stable and Functionalized Cyclopentadienes via CuH‐Catalysis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Cyclopentadienes (CpHs) are fundamental building blocks with widespread applications in chemistry. However, their inherent acidity and isomeric instability have long limited access to chiral variants in an asymmetric fashion. Here, we introduce a CuH‐catalyzed asymmetric transformation that provides an unprecedented entry into a new class of ...
