Abstract
The domestication of plants that underpin the rise of human civilization is increasingly recognized as a complex interplay of processes across a culturally connected landscape. On page 892 of this issue, Dong et al. (1) reveal more of this complexity by reporting the unraveling of the evolutionary events that led to grape (Vitis vinifera ssp. vinifera) domestication. By incorporating the effects of glacial oscillations on biogeographical distributions of the wild progenitor (Vitis vinifera ssp. sylvestris) across Eurasia, they resolved two separate domestication processes from two distinct populations of sylvestris in the Near East and South Caucasus that were separated during the last glacial advance. They found that although the South Caucasus domestication is associated with early winemaking, the origin of wine in Western Europe is associated with cross-fertilization (introgression) between Western Europe’s wild populations and domesticated grapes originating from the Near East that were initially used as food sources.
