Widespread horse-based mobility arose around 2,200 BCE in Eurasia
Librado, Pablo; Tressières, Gaetan; Chauvey, Lorelei; Fages, Antoine; Khan, Naveed; Schiavinato, Stéphanie; Calvière-Tonasso, Laure; Kusliy, Mariya A.Horses revolutionized human history with fast mobility. However, the timeline between their domestication and widespread integration as a means of transportation remains contentious. Here we assemble a large collection of 475 ancient horse genomes to assess the period when these animals were first reshaped by human agency in Eurasia. We find that reproductive control of the modern domestic lineage emerged ~2,20...

Wragg, David; Eynard, Sonia E.; Basso, Benjamin; Canale‐Tabet, Kamila; Labarthe, Emmanuelle; Bouchez, Olivier; Bienefeld, Kaspar; Bieńkowska, MałgorzataHoney bee subspecies originate from specific geographical areas in Africa, Europe and the Middle East, and beekeepers interested in specific phenotypes have imported genetic material to regions outside of the bees' original range for use either in pure lines or controlled crosses. Moreover, imported drones are present in the environ-ment and mate naturally with queens from the local subspecies. The resulting ad...
The genomic history and global expansion of domestic donkeys
Todd, Evelyn T.; Tonasso-Calvière, Laure; Chauvey, Lorelei; Schiavinato, Stéphanie; Fages, Antoine; Seguin-Orlando, Andaine; Clavel, PierreDonkeys transformed human history as essential beasts of burden for long-distance movement, especially across semi-arid and upland environments. They remain insufficiently studied despite globally expanding and providing key support to low- to middle-income communities. To elucidate their domestication history, we constructed a comprehensive genome panel of 207 modern and 31 ancient donkeys, as well as 15 wild ...
