The Antiquity of Man Plantains and papaw trees are grouped together with groves of arborescent fern; and this mixture of wild and cultivated plants gives the place a peculiar charm.

Farmers of Forty Centuries; Or, Permanent Agriculture in China, Korea, and Japan With the cultivated plants of man come the myriad tribes which feed or breed upon them, and agriculture not only introduces new speciss, but so multiplies the number of individuals as to defy calculation. The Earth as Modified by Human Action Mutations occur as often among cultivated plants as among those in the wild state. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation It has been estimated that 150,000 stomata or more are often found per square inch on the under side of the leaves of ordinary cultivated plants.

Familiar Letters on Chemistry The individuals which have already begun to vary will intercross one with another by the aid of insects; and this accounts for the extreme diversity of character which many of our long cultivated plants exhibit. Effects of Cross and Self Fertilisation in the Vegetable Kingdom This assertion is proved by its occurrence as a varietal mark in one of our most ordinary cultivated plants.

The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 2 Besides this limited study, we may compare the numerous individuals of one locality or of a large plot of cultivated plants with one another. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation Many cases of bud-variation, however, cannot be attributed to reversion, but to so-called spontaneous variability, as is so common with cultivated plants raised from seed. The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 1 Beside the cultivated plant the self-sown poppy rears itself; round the stem of a smooth tree the honeysuckle twines; to a trim wall the ivy clings. Fraternity I have just finished a long, weary chapter on simple facts of variation of cultivated plants, and am now refreshing myself with a paper on Linum for the Linnean Society. More Letters of Charles Darwin — Volume 1 A return, also, of domesticated animals and cultivated plants to a wild state favours reversion; but the tendency under these circumstances has been much exaggerated. The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 2 Moreover unconscious selections by man have often worked in an analogous manner, and many cultivated plants may be put to the test concerning the evidence they might give on this point. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation One chief object in the two following chapters is to show how many characters in our cultivated plants have become variable. The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 1 It is admitted by all naturalists that no problem is so perplexing as what causes almost every cultivated plant to vary, and no experiments as yet tried have thrown any light on the subject. Life and Letters of Charles Darwin — Volume 2 Lord, in what a medley the origin of cultivated plants is. More Letters of Charles Darwin — Volume 1 BENTHAM, G., number and origin of cultivated plants. -on Phaseolus. -cereals all cultivated varieties. -species of the orange group. -distinctions of almond and peach. The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 2 Elementary species, as we have seen in earlier lectures, occur in wild and in cultivated plants. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation Our oldest cultivated plants, such as wheat, still yield new varieties: our oldest domesticated animals are still capable of rapid improvement or modification. The Origin of Species by means of Natural Selection, 6th Edition If so, the astonishing variations of almost all cultivated plants must be due to selection and breeding from the varying individuals. Life and Letters of Charles Darwin — Volume 2 I am now working on cultivated plants, and rather like my work; but I am horribly afraid I make the rashest remarks on value of differences. More Letters of Charles Darwin — Volume 1 WEEDS, supposed necessity for their modification, coincidently with cultivated plants. The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 2 Of course cultivated plants were originally wild and must have come under the general law.

The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 2 Nearly every cultivated plant affords instances of such diversity. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation There can be no doubt that such analogy exists; the conception that they should be limited to cultivated plants is not probable. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation In the following lectures we shall consider this point at length, to show the compound nature of systematic species in wild and in cultivated plants.

The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 2 The improvement of cultivated plants must obviously begin with already existing forms. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation It is manifest that these experiences with wild species must find a parallel among cultivated plants. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation Some authors assume that cultivation itself might have been the principal cause of variability, but it is not proved, nor even probable, that cultivated plants are intrinsically more variable than their wild prototypes. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation In fact the possession of numbers of varieties may be considered as the main character of domesticated animals and cultivated plants. Darwin and Modern Science ELLIS, Mr., varieties of cultivated plants in Tahiti. The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 2 In scientific works it is commonly used to designate the occurrence of subspecies or varieties, and the same is the case in the ordinary use of the term when dealing with cultivated plants. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation And this assumption would be equally sufficient to explain the existing conditions among cultivated plants. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation This is manifestly a very useful adaptation for a cultivated plant, as by this means no seeds are lost. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation The seeds, introduced into England about 1860, were said to have come from Texas, but whether from wild or from cultivated plants we do not know. Darwin and Modern Science RYE, wild, De Candolle's observations on. -found in the Swiss lake-dwellings. -common, preferred by hares and rabbits. -less variable than other cultivated plants.

Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation Another class of facts, not relating to cultivated plants, deserves attention. The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 2 So it has been with many cultivated plants. The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 2 Wheat, as we know from the remains found in the Swiss lake- dwellings, is one of the most anciently cultivated plants, yet at the present day new and better varieties frequently arise.
