The Domestication Syndrome in Phoenix dactylifera Seeds: Toward the Identification of Wild Date Palm Populations. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Investigating crop origins is a priority to understand the evolution of plants under domestication, develop strategies for conservation and valorization of agrobiodiversity and acquire fundamental knowledge for cultivar improvement.

Neural crest cell genes and the domestication syndrome: A comparative analysis of selection. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2022 Neural crest cell genes control the migration of neural crest cells to multiple parts of developing vertebrate embryos. A recent hypothesis posits that the “domestication syndrome” characteristic of domesticated animals is driven by selection for ...

The genomics of the domestication syndrome in a songbird model species. [PDF]
Commun BiolMany domesticated animals share a syndromic phenotype marked by a suite of traits that include more variable patterns of coloration, reduced stress, aggression, and altered risk-taking and exploratory behaviors relative to their wild counterparts ...

The metabolic domestication syndrome of budding yeast. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S ASignificance Metabolic networks evolve through changes in enzyme content and activity states, but the latter aspect remains elusive. This is a major knowledge gap since differences in enzyme kinetic properties and regulation can lead to vastly different ...

Association of tameness and sociability but no sign of domestication syndrome in mice selectively bred for active tameness. [PDF]
Genes Brain BehavDomesticated animals have been developed by selecting desirable traits following the initial unconscious selection stage, and now exhibit phenotypes desired by humans. Tameness is a common behavioural trait found in all domesticated animals.

Phenotypic characterisation and linkage mapping of domestication syndrome traits in yellow lupin (Lupinus luteus L.). [PDF]
Theor Appl Genet, 2020 The transformation of wild plants into domesticated crops usually modifies a common set of characters referred to as ‘domestication syndrome’ traits such as the loss of pod shattering/seed dehiscence, loss of seed dormancy, reduced anti-nutritional ...
