More about the book
Focusing on the unique aspects of evolution under domestication, this book explores the recent development of crop species, beginning around 10,000 years ago with agriculture. It highlights the significance of wild progenitors still existing in their natural habitats and the role of human intervention in shaping these evolutionary processes. The text examines how agricultural practices have unintentionally influenced selection criteria, leading to a rich diversity of traits in domesticated crops that are largely absent in their wild ancestors. Ideal for advanced students in related fields, it aims to fill a gap in existing literature on this specialized topic.
