- Multiple cereal crop species from different domestication centers such as rice, maize, wheat, and sorghum share to varying degrees a set of traits, including non-shattering seeds, increased seed size, reduced seed dormancy, loss of outcrossing, and apical dominance, which are collectively referred to as the domestication syndrome (Hammer 1984; Allaby 2014; Preece et al. 2017).

Are phenotypic traits associated with domestication syndrome in sexually reproduced plants?
Domestication syndrome refers to two sets of phenotypic traits that are common to either domesticated plants [1] [2] or domesticated animals. [3] Domesticated animals tend to be smaller and less aggressive than their wild counterparts, they may also have floppy ears, variations to coat color, a smaller brain, and a shorter muzzle.
Definition. The domestication syndrome can be defined as the characteristic collection of phenotypic traits associated with the genetic change to a domesticated form of an organism from a wild progenitor form.

Jan 6, 2020 · Domestication syndrome traits in vegetative crops represent tendencies in human-mediated plant evolution that reflect a combination of permanent genetic changes and impermanent plastic responses to practices of cultivation, including plant propagation and managing the conditions of growth, such as vegetation clearance and plot preparation.
