How to make a domesticate

2017-04-01

Abstract excerpt

Crop domestication is an adaptive process that transforms a wild plant into a domesticated species that can reared and maintained for human use. Though there are hundreds of thousands of flowering plant species, only a small fraction has ever been domesticated. Successful domestication is likely influenced by a number of key plant characteristics, including its life history, the usefulness of a crop for early soci...
