What are the symptoms of domestication syndrome?
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.
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.

Oct 11, 2017 · Domestication syndrome. Investigators have searched for phenotypic characteristics common across crop plants (domestication syndromes) that may help illuminate agents of selection, as well as the order and pace of domestication. The domestication syndrome includes grain retention by loss of shattering (rice, barley, wheat, soybean), reduction ...

Aug 31, 2007 · Features of the domestication syndrome include loss of dispersal, increase in size (especially of the harvested part of the plant), loss of seed dormancy and loss of chemical or mechanical protection against herbivores. Crops vary within and between species in their degrees of domestication.

May 15, 2007 · The phenotypic changes associated with adaptation under domestication are substantial. Many of these changes are shared across a broad array of domesticated plants; this suite of changes is commonly referred to as the “domestication syndrome” .
One of the factors that differentiates domesticated plants from their wild ancestors is domestication syndrome, including symptoms such as increased seed size, loss of dormancy, and the inability to disperse seeds.
