Genomic diversity and introgression in O. sativa reveal the impact of domestication and breeding on the rice genome.
The domestication of Asian rice (Oryza sativa) was a complex process punctuated by episodes of introgressive hybridization among and between subpopulations. Deep genetic divergence between the two main varietal groups (Indica and Japonica) suggests domestication from at least two distinct wild popul...
