In situ management and domestication of plants in Mesoamerica.

Annals of botany - 1 Nov 2007

Casas Alejandro, Otero-Arnaiz Adriana, Pérez-Negrón Edgar, Valiente-Banuet Alfonso

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Ethnobotanical studies in Mexico have documented that Mesoamerican peoples practise systems of in situ management of wild and weedy vegetation directed to control availability of useful plants. In situ management includes let standing, encouraging growing and protection of individual plants of useful species during clearance of vegetation, which in some cases may involve artificial selection....
