Crypsis could be a driver of these pelage patterns but the llama and alpaca show great intraspecific variation (possibly as a result of domestication). The four chevrotain species (Tragulidae) are reddish-brown, some with lateral spots arranged in rows. The four musk deer species (Moschidae)...
Our results revealed new complexities of history in chicken domestication because in the phylogeny lineages from the red junglefowl were mingled with those of the domestic chickens. Several local domestication events in South Asia, Southwest China and Southeast Asia were identified. The assessment of ...

aThe term domestication refers to the localizing of global foods. Some critics argue that the idea of what is local is being renegotiated. We can again draw an example from the Caldwell article. The Russians were more accepting of McDonalds after they began using meat grown in Russia. However...
A recent example is the population genetic analysis of the domestication genes of wheat, which has confirmed its known history, including independent domestication events. In wheat, the disruption of Brittle Rachis 1 (Btr1) is responsible for the non-shattering (or non-brittle rachis) trait, ...
While the challenges mentioned above continue to persist, it is important to emphasize that progress has also been made in the development of instructional strategies for addressing these. For example, it has been shown that the mechanism of natural selection can be successfully taught to children ...

2 A key element thought to have changed during domestication is dogs' propensity to communicate with humans, particularly their inclination to gaze at them. A classic test to measure this is the 'unsolvable task', where after repeated successes in obtaining a reward by object-manipulation, the ...
Domestication of pigs and cattle likely began about 10,000 years ago, and goats and sheep about 8,000 years ago in the Fertile Crescent (now the Middle East). Using DNA mapping of current species, along with archeological findings, it is possible to identify how animal domestication progressed...
Nutritional value of yellow mealworm larvae Yellow mealworm larvae contain 40.2%–63.3% protein on a dry matter (DM) basis, depending upon the types of rearing substrates used to grow them [5, 24,25,26,27,28] (Table 1). For example, larvae fed with wheat bran had a higher (63.3% DM...
