Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to evaluate the provenance and agricultural management in the past, we investigate the chemical signals (trace elements) in wild and domesticated species of plants which were grown up in the same botanic garden. The Ba and Sr contents in domesticated beans and wild acorn are significantly higher than other plants. Interestingly, zinc concentration is higher in domesticated beans (Azuki and black beans) than wild bean, suggesting chemical signal may use as an indicator of domestication of beans, although further biological discussion is necessary to establish a chemical parameter of domestication. Furthermore, suitable floral remains which is composed of Melanoidine can be selected by X-ray CT scanning.
