A recent resequencing study in sorghum [ 23] generated high-coverage (>20×) data for a diverse group of 44 wild, weedy and cultivated genotypes, spanning the dimensions of geographic origin, crop management and subgroup/race.
This can lead to false conclusions regarding varietal diversity and the origin of crops [5].
Hybridization and selection have both been involved in the origin of crops and the process of domestication since early times.
Given a certain geographical origin of crop dispersal and a landscape model, we can predict the movement of crops in geographical space and, consequently, the age of archaeobotanical crop remains, heterozygosity, and genetic distances between crop populations.
To deal with the inadequacy of training samples during learning, we introduce a data augmentation scheme which is very efficient due to its origin at cropping across videos.
George Willcox, an archaeobotanist affiliated with the University of Lyon in France, agrees that the geographical distance of the Zagros Mountains from the western Fertile Crescent could suggest an independent origin for crop cultivation.
Insights into the origin of crop plants and knowledge of the identities of their progenitors are of great value in both basic and applied research programs.
Taken together these mean that just in the past few years it has become possible to offer new insights into plant domestication and the multiple origins of crops.
Brassica rapa is an internationally cultivated seed oil and vegetable crop and a parent of the hybrid-origin mustard crops, B. napus (canola) and B. juncea (Indian mustard) [ 47].
These tobaccos are of different grades, origins and crop-years.
