An overarching, biologically grounded definition of domestication is discussed, which emphasizes its core nature as a coevolutionary process that arises from a specialized mutualism, in which one species controls the fitness of another in order to gain resources and/or services.
Oct 10, 2017 · Domestication is a process with clear and dramatic evolutionary impact. It created new organisms that cannot live outside of a domesticatory relationship with humans; contributed to significant declines in overall biodiversity through the extirpation or even extinction of free-living species; transformed landscapes and atmospheric conditions ...

Jun 5, 2023 · Domestication and the emergence of agriculture are both evolutionary processes, but, although interconnected, they are different. Cultivation is defined by human behaviours, and practices that are inherited through culture rather than genetics, by which people prepare land using various technologies (material culture), sow and reproduce plants.

What is the domestication process?
We review evidence that calls for a new landscape framework of crop origins. Evolutionary processes operate across vast distances of landscape and time, and the origins of domesticates are complex. The domestication bottleneck is a redundant concept and the progressive nature of domestication is in doubt.
