説明

<jats:title>Significance</jats:title> <jats:p>Archaeological, historic, and molecular studies have indicated that the Fertile Crescent in the Near East is a major center of origin and domestication of cultivated barley. However, growing evidence in recent years supports the theory of a polyphyletic origin of barley. To our knowledge, this is the first attempt using RNA sequencing techniques and genomic similarity analysis to study the domestication of barley. We confirmed the polyphyletic origin of cultivated barley and our results revealed the genomic origin of modern cultivated barley is from both the Near East and Tibet, with different contributions on each chromosome. These findings advance our understanding of the early spread of agrarian culture, and are expected to be of wide interest to evolutionary geneticists and plant breeders.</jats:p>
