Unveiling the molecular arms race between two conflicting genomes in cytoplasmic male sterility?

abstract：:It is well documented that ancient sickle harvesting led to tough rachises, but the other seed dispersal properties in crop progenitors are rarely discussed. The first steps toward domestication are evolutionary responses for the recruitment of humans as dispersers. Seed dispersal-based mutualism evolved from heavy hu...
