Abstract excerpt
Barley is one of the oldest cultivated crops, with a complex evolutionary and domestication history1. Previous studies have rejected the idea of a single origin and instead support a model of mosaic genomic ancestry2,3. With increasingly comprehensive genome data, we now ask where the haplotypes - the building blocks of this mosaic - originate, and whether all domesticated barleys share the same wild progenitors...
