The domestication of plants, animals and microorganisms has enabled the development of agriculture, animal husbandry, the processing of their products and, ultimately, civilizations.

The species concerned by domestication, the regions of the world where it could take place, the clues that enable us to identify wild ancestors, the particularly morphological or physiological properties that characterize it, the modified genes, the genetic exchanges that domesticated organisms maintained with their wild ancestors, and the consequences of the structuring of the species that resulted in animal breeds or plant varieties, are all questions that develop studies in the fields of archaeology, sociology, ecology and genetics.

Genetics of Domestications deals with the contribution of modern methods of genetic analysis and genomics to historical knowledge of domestications, their nature and diversity, based on examples of twelve species or groups of species.

Georges Pelletier is Honorary Research Director at the INRAE (Institut national de recherche pour l'agriculture, l'alimentation et l'environnement), France, where he specializes in plant genetics and biotechnology. His research focuses on DNA exchanges between mitochondrial genomes and genome-modification methods, including transgenesis, from both fundamental research and plant breeding applications.
