Science 413:12981301, van Zeist W, Bakker-Heeres JAH (1985) Archaeological studies in the Levant 1. Wheat is a grain crop with some 25,000 different cultivars in the world today. By planting these seeds next season, farmers could then continue to grow crops with late stems. Introgression of novel traits from a wild wheat relative improves drought adaptation in wheat. The domestication phase thus spread over several centuries and simultaneously concerned several species: einkorn ( Triticum monococcum ), emmer wheat ( T. dicoccum ), barley ( Hordeum vulgare) and rye ( Secale cereale) [13], [15]. Since then, improvement in various traits including resistance to diseases, insect pests, saline and drought stresses, grain yield, and quality were improved through selections by early farmers and then planned hybridization after the discovery of Mendel's laws. While some scientists argue that this is a fairly rapid process of several centuries; Others argue that the process from the cultivation of wheat to its domestication is almost 5,000 years old.

Wheat is one of the most important grain crops in the world, and consists mainly of two types: the hexaploid bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) accounting for about 95% of world wheat production, and the tetraploid durum wheat (T. durum) accounting for the other 5%. The evidence is abundant that by about 10,400 years ago, domesticated wheat was in widespread use throughout the Levant region; but when that started is up for debate.

Shifts in Plant Functional Strategies over the Course of Wheat Domestication, Sedimentary DNA from a Submerged Site Reveals Wheat in the British Isles 8000 Years Ago. Evolving from an ancestral plant called emmer that still exists today, domestication of wheat was at least 12,000 years ago. Its domestication coincides with the beginning of agriculture and since then, it has been constantly under selection by humans. But additional experiments run by British evolutionary geneticist Robin Allaby and preliminarily reported in Watson (2018) have shown that ancient DNA from undersea sediments is more pristine than that from other contexts. 8,000-7,000 The bones of humans who regularly ate corn during their lifetime have a high 13C measurement.

KSCX2-YW-Z-0722, the CAS Strategic Priority Research Program Grant No. A creative strategy for addressing the impoverished D genome diversity of common wheat is the development of synthetic hexaploid wheats (McFadden and Sears, 1946; Trethowan and Mujeeb-Kazi, 2008; Ogbonnaya et al., 2013). Dr. Patrick Byrne shows harvested heads of the A, B, and D ancestors of wheat, and explains the strategy of creating synthetic hexaploid wheat to increase diversity of cultivated wheat. Development of synthetic hexaploid wheat (Ogbonnaya et al., 2013). dicoccoides, known as wild emmer, having the AABB genome constitution. tauschii plants, creating a so-called bottleneck effect where only a limited amount of D-genome variation became incorporated into the hexaploid crop. Nowadays, we continue to produce domestic wheat. Compared to emmer wheat, modern wheat has shorter leaf longevity, and a higher net rate of photosynthesis, leaf production rate, and nitrogen content. Another early form of wheat called einkorn (T. monococcum) was domesticated at about the same time but has limited distribution today. Clipboard, Search History, and several other advanced features are temporarily unavailable. These chromosome sets are designated the A, B, and D genomes, each with seven pairs of chromosomes. The earliest cultivated emmer has been found in the southern Levant (Netiv Hagdud, Tell Aswad, other Pre-Pottery Neolithic A sites); while einkorn is found in the northern Levant (Abu Hureyra, Mureybet, Jerf el Ahmar, Gbekli Tepe).
