411) De Novo Domestication: An Alternative Route toward New Crops for the Future
Recent technological advances have raised the possibility of de novo domestication of wild plants as a viable solution for designing ideal crops while maintaining food security and a more sustainable low-input agriculture. Here the authors discuss how the discovery of multiple key domestication genes...

412) Decentralized selection and participatory approaches in plant breeding for low-input systems
Breeding programs must decentralize the selection of crops, and although decentralized selection can be done in formal breeding programs, it is more efficient to involve farmers in the selection and testing of early generation materials. Breeding within these target systems is challenging, both genetically...
