Sentence examples for multiple domestication events from inspiring English sources

Population phylogenomic analysis of mitochondrial DNA in wild boars and domestic pigs revealed multiple domestication events in East Asia.

However, some studies indicate that from the comparison of the population structures of the two domesticated gene pools, there is an indication of multiple domestication events in Mesoamerica (Singh et al. 1991a, b, c; Beebe et al. 2000).

These findings are compatible with the occurrence of multiple domestication events in Europe, resulting in the generation of several domestic pig breeds that are more similar to its ancestor and yet are highly differentiated in terms of phenotypes and genotypes.

These results contrast with a recent study [ 19] based on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) that implies an origin for the domestic dog from a 'single gene pool', rather than multiple domestication events and continued hybridization with wolf stocks.

During the first genetic bottleneck, pre-domestic breeds diverged from wolves some 15,000 years ago, probably through multiple domestication events.

On the other hand, the group differentiation in the domesticated compartment, both for the F and the H haplotypes, suggests multiple domestication events, as advanced by Arroyo et al. [ 11] based on chloroplast genetic diversity.

The multiple, independent domestication events in southern China, South Asia and Southeast Asia involve several matrilines (Liu et al., 2006; Kanginakudru et al., 2008).

McTavish, E. J., Decker, J. E., Schnabel, R. D., Taylor, J. F. & Hillis, D. M. New World cattle show ancestry from multiple independent domestication events.

The population structure and phylogenetic analyses not only support the hypothesis that cultivated soybeans (G. max) are a subclade of their progenitor wild soybeans (G. soja), but also disprove the hypothesis of multiple soybean domestication events in East Asia.

Previous studies suggested that European and Asian pigs were derived from multiple independent domestication events [ 13- 15], notably from European and Asian subspecies of wild boars that are estimated to have split about ~1 million years ago [ 7], followed by the occurrence of introgression of Asian pigs into some European breeds during the Neolithic [ 14] and 18th-19th centuries [ 16- 19].

However, molecular genetic evidence suggests that there were multiple domestication and/or interbreeding events between domestic dogs and grey wolves [ 7- 10].
