Deskripsi

De-domestication is the process by which cultivated plants adopt characteristics similar to that of their wild predecessors. Here Qiuet al. re-sequence de-domesticated weedy rice and matched cultivated varieties and identify genetic variants indicative of convergent evolution across multiple de-domestication events.
