Reconstructing the evolutionary history of herbaceous crops through trait-based ecology.

Abstract excerpt

Reconstructing the evolution of crop plants is fundamental to understanding their origins, ecological adaptations, and impacts on ecosystem processes. However, our understanding of crop evolution stems largely from archaeology and genetics, with less focus on a trait-based ecological approach. Crop-specific studies have shown that phenotypic traits changed substantially during domestication and modern breeding....
