Evolution of fruit and seed traits during almond naturalization
Journal of Ecology, Volume 110, Issue 3, Page 686-699, March 2022., 2022 Almond naturalization is consistent with strong directional selection on fruits and seeds, leading to smaller and more toxic seeds encased in harder endocarps. Accordingly, we propose that feralization of this crop is, at least to some degree, driven by adaptive evolution of dispersal and recruitment traits.
