Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) landraces collected before the widespread regional adoption of Green Revolution cultivars provide a historical record of locally maintained germplasm. We characterized a panel of 202 accessions collected from Nepal and Bhutan between 1952 and 1958. Genotyping by Random Amplicon Sequencing‐Direct yielded 30,228 high‐

Human Evolutionary Demography: Closing Thoughts
A complete understanding of demographic patterns and behaviours is not possible without including the role of evolutionary processes. Many challenges in the social sciences, and in demography in particular, can be more readily met if they include the ...

ABSTRACT This paper brings a feminist temporal perspective to understandings of agrarian‐climate crises in monsoon‐dependent regions of India, examining how time operates as a site of material struggle and social differentiation. Drawing on ethnographic research in Vidarbha, it explores how farmers synchronise diverse temporalities to navigate ...

What kind of theory for anthropological demography? [PDF]
This paper argues that demographic anthropology has, for most part, imported rather than exported theory. Yet, the discipline has the potential to generate important rethinking of population, culture, and their interaction.

Whole‐genome duplication promotes phenotypic and genetic adaptation to elevation
Fitness of diploids (2x) and tetraploids (4x) of Biscutella laevigata from low (circles) and high (triangles) elevation transplanted across elevation at 585, 1236 and 1967 m above sea level. Summary Whole‐genome duplication (WGD) is often considered as either an adaptive dead‐end or a facilitator of rapid adaptation under changing environments.

Transposable Element–Driven PIEZO Mutation Enhances Locust Flight in Plateau Hypoxia
Why transposable elements (TEs) persisted or expanded in genomes remains a mystery. Using integrated analysis of TE macro‐ and microevolution in locusts, our results showed that thousands of TE insertions promoted widespread adaptive variation. Subfamilies of candidate adaptive TEs amplified and reshaped species‐level genomic architecture.
