The “Bringing into Cultivation” Phase of the Plant Domestication Process and Its Contributions to In Situ Conservation of Genetic Resources in Benin by R. Vodouhè, A. Dansi

“…People in the humid zones give priority to herbs mainly for their leaves while those in dry area prefer trees mostly for their fruits. Local communities were motivated to undertake plant domestication for foods (80% of respondents), medicinal use (40% of respondents), income generation (20% of respondents) and cultural reasons (5% of respondents). 45% of the species recorded are still at early stage in domestication and only 2% are fully domesticated. …”

Humans may not have a uniquely enhanced sequence memory: sequence discrimination is facilitated by causal–logical framing in humans and chimpanzees by Eva Reindl, Amanda M. Seed, Robert A. Barton, Topaz Francis-Costa, Rachel L. Kendal

“…Humans discriminated causal sequences better than arbitrary ones and one chimpanzee succeeded in the causal frame condition after 324 trials, suggesting that performance gaps in previous studies are partly due to the arbitrariness of sequences (monkeys mostly failed the training). Without causal framing, children found the task difficult until 10–11 years of age. …”
