15 p, 3.1 MB Re-analysis of archaeobotanical remains from pre- and early agricultural sites provides no evidence for a narrowing of the wild plant food spectrum during the origins of agriculture in southwest Asia / Wallace, Michael (University of Sheffield.

Archaeobotanical evidence from southwest Asia is often interpreted as showing that the spectrum of wild plant foods narrowed during the origins of agriculture, but it has long been acknowledged that the recognition of wild plants as foods is problematic. [...]

1. The domestication of crops in the Fertile Crescent began approximately 10,000 years ago indicating a change from a hunter-gatherer lifestyle to a sedentary, agriculture-based existence. The exploitation of wild plants changed during this transition, such that a small number of crops were domesticated from the broader range of species gathered from the wild. [...]

11 p, 303.0 KB How did the domestication of Fertile Crescent grain crops increase their yields? / Preece, Catherine (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Livarda, Alexandra (University of Nottingham. Department of Archaeology) ; Christin, Pascal Antoine (University of Sheffield. Department of Animal and Plant Sciences) ; Wallace, Michael (University of Sheffield.

Institute of Archaeology) ; Jones, Glynis (University of Sheffield. Department of Archaeology) ; Rees, Mark (University of Sheffield. Department of Animal and Plant Sciences) ; Osborne, Colin P. (University of Sheffield. Department of Animal and Plant Sciences)
The origins of agriculture, 10 000 years ago, led to profound changes in the biology of plants exploited as grain crops, through the process of domestication. This special case of evolution under cultivation led to domesticated cereals and pulses requiring humans for their dispersal, but the accompanying mechanisms causing higher productivity in these plants remain unknown.
