Could a new theory explain 'domestication syndrome'?
Darwin’s encyclopedic investigation of domesticated species revealed an intriguing phenomenon. From his survey of the animal breeding work, he found that domesticated mammals in general exhibit a suite of behavioral, physiological, and morphological traits not observed in their wild forebears.

Jul 1, 2014 · In particular, we suggest that all domesticated birds and mammals will show reduction in initial NCC numbers (e.g., as caused by ZEB2 insufficiency in Mowat-Wilson syndrome) and/or delays or alteration of migratory behavior (as caused by diverse genes, including Pax3, MITF, Sox10, and EDNRB, and observed in different types of Waardenburg ...

Domestication syndrome refers to two sets of phenotypic traits that are common to either domesticated plants or domesticated animals. 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.
Jun 3, 2019 · Domestication is hypothesized to drive correlated responses in animal morphology, physiology and behaviour, a phenomenon known as the domestication syndrome. However, we currently lack...

factors involved in domestication rather than the underlying developmental and genetic causes of these traits. Here, we propose that the domestication syndrome results predominantly from mild neural crest cell deficits during embryonic development.
Mar 22, 2023 · So, it seems domestication syndrome might not be caused by humans selecting animals for tameness. Instead, it might be caused by unintended shared effects from the new domestic environment.
