Sequencing of historical plastid genomes reveal exceptional genetic diversity in early domesticated rye plants

Jovan Komluski, Sofia Filatova, Frank Schlütz, Benjamin Claaßen, Manfred Rösch, Ben Krause‐Kyora, Wiebke Kirleis, Eva H. Stukenbrock

This study sequenced historical rye chloroplast genomes to show that ancient rye populations had higher genetic diversity than modern cultivars, indicating that recent selective breeding reduced diversity.
