Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the following four chapters, a multidimensional approach is utilized to contribute to the understanding of the domestication of C. annuum. A number of research tools (ecological, genetic, and sociological) are utilized to investigate the myriad of ways in which the genetic diversity of C. annuum is shaped during domestication and continues to be shaped. The organization of genetic diversity in the domesticated gene pool in a crop is the result of the effect and interaction of multiple factors that belong to the biological, environmental and human realms. An understanding of genetic diversity for conservation and utilization therefore requires a dissection and unraveling of these multiple factors and their interactions. In the following chapters, we describe our efforts to contribute to our collective understanding of the domestication of C. annuum. We describe in detail the efforts made to assemble an unprecedented collection of wild Capsicum from Mexico. We report on the genotyping of this collection, how genetic diversity is partitioned amongst the wild populations, and the genetic clustering of these populations and their relationship to domesticated C. annuum. Of exceptional interest is one of the clusters contained all the domesticated C. annuum and wild populations from Tamaulipas, Nuevo León and the Yucatán. We followed this with a recounting of a new and unique use of an ecological tool, a species distribution model, which was used with a number of different variants of wild Capsicum presence data. Finally, we chronicled the seed saving and selection process amongst chile pepper farmers in central Mexico, finding that those planting varieties of dried chile continue to plant landraces, while those who plant varieties of fresh chiles use hybrid seed, purchased from multinational seed corporations. On the basis of our collection and the genetic relationships uncovered, our results strongly support the hypothesis that C. annuum was domesticated in northeastern Mexico, somewhere near the borders of Veracruz, Tamaulipas and Nuevo León.

Book excerpt: The Neotropical area is a main setting of the earliest experiences of domestication ofplants, and evolutionary processes guided by humans, which continue being active inthe area. Studies comprised in this Research Topic show a general panorama aboutsimilarities and particularities of processes of domestication for different plant groupsand regions, some of them illustrate how the domestication processes originated anddiffused, how landscape domestication has operated and continues being practicedand others discuss some of the main challenges for designing policies for biosafetyand conservation of plant genetic resources. It is an attempt to identify main topicsfor research on evolution under domestication, and opportunities that researcherscan find in the Neotropics to understand how and why these processes occurredin the past and present.

Book excerpt: Although thought of as a minor crop, peppers are a major world commodity due to their great versatility. They are used not only as vegetables in their own right but also as flavourings in food products, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Aimed at advanced students and growers, this second edition expands upon topics covered in the first, such as the plant's history, genetics, production, diseases and pests, and brings the text up to date with current research and understanding of this genus. New material includes an expansion of marker-assisted breeding to cover the different types of markers available, new directions, and trends in the industry, the loss of germplasm and access to it, and the long term preservation of Capsicum resources worldwide. It is suitable for horticultural researchers, extension workers, academics, breeders, growers, and students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethnobiology holds a special place in the hearts and minds of many because of its dedication to celebrating the knowledge and values of some of the most distinctive cultural practices in some of the most distinctive places on Earth. Yet we live in a world of diminishing natural and linguistic diversity. Whether due to climate change or capitalism, homogeneity is trumping the once-resplendent heterogeneity all around us. In this important new collection, Gary Paul Nabhan puts forth a call for the future not only of ethnobiology but for the entire planet. He articulates and broadens the portfolio of ethnobiological principles and amplifies the tool kit for anyone engaged in the ethnobiosphere, those vital spaces of intense interaction among cultures, habitats, and creatures. The essays are grouped into a trio of themes. The first group presents the big questions facing humanity, the second profiles tools and methodologies that may help to answer those questions, and the third ponders how to best communicate these issues not merely to other scholars, but to society at large. The essays attest to the ways humans establish and circumscribe their identities not only through their thoughts and actions, but also with their physical, emotional, and spiritual attachments to place, flora, fauna, fungi, and feasts. Nabhan and his colleagues from across disciplines and cultures encourage us to be courageous enough to include ethical, moral, and even spiritual dimensions in work regarding the fate of biocultural diversity. The essays serve as cairns on the critical path toward an ethnobiology that is provocative, problem-driven, and, above all, inspiring.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chasing Chiles looks at both the future of place-based foods and the effects of climate change on agriculture through the lens of the chile pepper-from the farmers who cultivate this iconic crop to the cuisines and cultural traditions in which peppers play a huge role. Why chile peppers? Both a spice and a vegetable, chile peppers have captivated imaginations and taste buds for thousands of years. Native to Mesoamerica and the New World, chiles are currently grown on every continent, since their relatively recent introduction to Europe (in the early 1500s via Christopher Columbus). Chiles are delicious, dynamic, and very diverse-they have been rapidly adopted, adapted, and assimilated into numerous world cuisines, and while malleable to a degree, certain heirloom varieties are deeply tied to place and culture-but now accelerating climate change may be scrambling their terroir. Over a year-long journey, three pepper-loving gastronauts-an agroecologist, a chef, and an ethnobotanist-set out to find the real stories of America's rarest heirloom chile varieties, and learn about the changing climate from farmers and other people who live by the pepper, and who, lately, have been adapting to shifting growing conditions and weather patterns. They put a face on an issue that has been made far too abstract for our own good. Chasing Chiles is not your archetypal book about climate change, with facts and computer models delivered by a distant narrator. On the contrary, these three dedicated chileheads look and listen, sit down to eat, and get stories and recipes from on the ground-in farmers' fields, local cafes, and the desert-scrub hillsides across North America. From the Sonoran Desert to Santa Fe and St. Augustine (the two oldest cities in the U.S.), from the marshes of Avery Island in Cajun Louisiana to the thin limestone soils of the Yucatan, this book looks at how and why climate change will continue to affect our palates and our producers, and how it already has.
