SEED DISPERSAL AND CROP DOMESTICATION: SHATTERING, GERMINATION AND SEASONALITY IN EVOLUTION UNDER CULTIVATION (2009, background): “The involucres, which contain spikelets and bristles, change from being sessile and shed when mature to being non-shedding and stalked in the domesticated form (Fig. 7.5; also, Brunken et al., 1977; Poncet et al., 2000; D’Andrea et al., 2001; Zach and Klee, 2003; Fuller et al., 2007b).”
Contrasting Patterns in Crop Domestication and Domestication Rates: Recent Archaeobotanical Insights from the Old World (2007, background): “First, there was loss of natural seed shedding, which is linked to the shift from sessile involucres to development of a non-dehiscent peduncle (Poncet et al., 2000).”
