Journal ArticleDOI

The significance of responses of the genome to challenge

TL;DR: An attempt is made to outline several experiments conducted by the author that revealed how a genome may react to conditions for which it is unprepared, but to which it responds in a discernible, but initially unforeseen manner.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution, consequences and future of plant and animal domestication

TL;DR: Domestication interests us as the most momentous change in Holocene human history, as farmers spread at the expense of hunter–gatherers and of other farmers.

fw2.2: a quantitative trait locus key to the evolution of tomato fruit size.

TL;DR: Alterations in fruit size, imparted by fw2.2 alleles, are most likely due to changes in regulation rather than in the sequence and structure of the encoded protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

A single domestication for maize shown by multilocus microsatellite genotyping

TL;DR: All maize arose from a single domestication in southern Mexico about 9,000 years ago, consistent with a model based on the archaeological record suggesting that maize diversified in the highlands of Mexico before spreading to the lowlands.
