Journal ArticleDOI
Morphological variation, management and domestication of ‘maguey alto’ ( Agave inaequidens ) and ‘maguey manso’ ( A. hookeri ) in Michoacán, México
Carmen Julia Figueredo,Alejandro Casas,Patricia Colunga-GarcíaMarín,Jafet M. Nassar,Antonio González-Rodríguez +4 more
TL;DR: Divergence between wild and cultivated populations of A. inaequidens reflect artificial selection, and the hypothesis that A. hookeri could be the extreme of a domestication gradient of a species complex is supported.
Book ChapterDOI
Evolutionary Ethnobotanical Studies of Incipient Domestication of Plants in Mesoamerica
Alejandro Casas,José Blancas,Adriana Otero-Arnaiz,Jeniffer Cruse-Sanders,Rafael Lira,Aidé Avendaño,Fabiola Parra,Susana Guillén,Carmen Julia Figueredo,Ignacio Torres,Selene Rangel-Landa +10 more
TL;DR: This chapter summarizes ethnobotanical, ecological, and evolutionary information documented in different regions of Mexico, combining different research approaches in order to understand the human motives for managing plant resources, and the ecological and evolutionary consequences of management of plants and ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic structure of coexisting wild and managed agave populations: implications for the evolution of plants under domestication.
Carmen Julia Figueredo,Alejandro Casas,Antonio González-Rodríguez,Jafet M. Nassar,Patricia Colunga-GarcíaMarín,Víctor Rocha-Ramírez +5 more
TL;DR: Bayesian analysis indicated that genetic clusters best fit with the corresponding habitats where populations grow, and natural mechanisms of gene flow and movement of agave propagules among populations by people explain these patterns.
Book ChapterDOI
Evolutionary Ecology and Ethnobiology
Alejandro Casas,Fabiola Parra,Selene Rangel,Susana Guillén,José Blancas,Carmen Julia Figueredo +5 more
TL;DR: This chapter summarises in this chapter conceptual and methodological approaches for analysing the interactions between humans and plants and animals, their domestication and forms to evaluate their morphological, physiological, and genetic consequences and concludes that the theoretical construction in this field may substantially help in designing sustainable management strategies.
