DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2019.05.053
Abstract: Domestication is a co-evolutionary process that occurs when wild plants are brought into cultivation by humans, leading to origin of new species and/or differentiated populations that are critical for human survival. Darwin used domesticated species… read more here.
