Locus-specific view of flax domestication history
Crop domestication has been inferred genetically from neutral markers and increasingly from specific domestication-associated loci. However, some crops are utilized for multiple purposes that may or may not be reflected in a single domestication-associated locus. One such example is cultivated flax (Linum usitatissimum L.), the earliest oil and fiber crop, for which domestication history remain...
متن کاملPopulation-based resequencing revealed an ancestral winter group of cultivated flax: implication for flax domestication processes
Cultivated flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is the earliest oil and fiber crop and its early domestication history may involve multiple events of domestication for oil, fiber, capsular indehiscence, and winter hardiness. Genetic studies have demonstrated that winter cultivated flax is closely related to oil and fiber cultivated flax and shows little relatedness to its progenitor, pale flax (L. bie...
متن کاملA population genetics view of animal domestication.
The fundamental shift associated with the domestication of plants and animals allowed for a dramatic increase in human population sizes and the emergence of modern society. Despite its importance and the decades of research devoted to studying it, questions regarding the origins and processes of domestication remain. Here, we review recent theoretical advances and present a perspective that und...
متن کاملQuantitative Trait Locus Analyses of the Domestication Syndrome and Domestication Process
Domestication of many of today’s main food crops occurred approximately 10,000 years ago with the beginning of agriculture. It has lead to the selection by farmers of a wide range of morphological and physiological traits that distinguish domesticated crops from their wild ancestors. These characteristics are collectively referred to as the domestication syndrome and include changes in plant ar...
متن کاملToward understanding dog evolutionary and domestication history.
Dog domestication was probably started very early during the Upper paleolithic period (~35,000 BP), thus well before any other animal or plant domestication. This early process, probably unconscious, is called proto-domestication to distinguish it from the real domestication process that has been dated around 14,000 BC. Genomic DNA analyses have shown recently that domestication started in the ...
