and build more secure livelihoods said plant geneticist Rajeev Varshney of the International Crops Research Institute for Semiarid Tropics in India who serves on the IPGI.
While peanuts were bred successfully for intensive cultivation for thousands of years relatively little was known about the legume's genetic structure because of its complexity according to Peggy Ozias-Akins a plant geneticist on the UGA Tifton campus who also works with the IPGI
and is director of the UGA Institute of Plant Breeding Genetics and Genomics. Until now we've bred peanuts relatively blindly as compared to other crops said IPGI plant geneticist David Bertioli of the Universidade de Brasã lia.
We've had less information to work with than we do with many crops which have been researched more thoroughly and understood.
While the sequencing of the peanut can be seen as a great leap forward in plant genetics
Lead researcher Jared Decker an assistant professor of animal science in the MU College of Agriculture Food and Natural resources says the genetics of these African cattle breeds are similar to those of cattle first domesticated
and changed their genetic makeup enough to confuse geneticists. In their study published in PLOS Genetics Decker
and a team of international researchers compared the similarities and differences among the genetics of many different cattle breeds to determine how the breeds are related.
Their research found mixing of native cattle in Indonesia with imports from India European and African cattle in Italy and Spain and European and Asian cattle in Korea and Japan.
Decker says these discoveries help advance genetics and uncover important information about human history. In many ways the history of cattle genetics mirrors human history Decker said.
In the case of African cattle anthropologists and geneticists used to suspect that domesticated African cattle were native to the continent
when in fact they were brought by migrating peoples thousands of years ago. By better understanding the history of the animals we domesticate we can better understand ourselves.
