Extractions: Many families of plants contain succulent (i.e. water storing) species that have adapted to the arid climates of deserts and semi-deserts. Many of these habitats are associated with high day-time temperatures and special mechanisms have evolved to collect and conserve the limited moisture that is available, sometimes only from dews, mists and fogs. Convergent evolution has often resulted in similar solutions to the problems of living in a harsh environment, and it may be obvious that similar looking plants belong to different families only when they are flowering. Sadly, like many other flora and fauna, succulent plants are under pressure throughout the world from encroaching urbanisation, agriculture and the depredations of widespread non-indigenous livestock such as goats. While these pressures may be inevitable, there is much that succulent plant enthusiasts can do to promote the conservation and survival of this interesting group of plants. These pages are a resource for all those interested in collecting, growing, propagating, showing and the conservation of succulent plants including cacti.

Extractions: You may have noticed that we've started taking adverts for this site. Don't worry about it. This isn't the start of some slippery slope. I'll never use popup ads, pop-over ads, full page banner ads or spyware. plantmall.co.uk is an independent website, and its primary purpose will always be to deliver information about gardening related websites quickly, easily and with minimum fuss. The website costs me £100.00 a year though. It's not much, and I can afford it, but if I can recoup some of the costs, then I will. This is why I've included the text-ads. If you advertise on PlantMall, it'll probably cost you $15.00 US. Each advert will ensure that about 75 people will visit your website, and about 50 times more than that will see the advert. Think of the text ads as cards placed in the windows of newsagents. They don't look good, they don't cost much, but they're effective, and they give the newsagent a tiny bit of extra income.

GEOG 1103, The Domestication Of Plants And Animals
An article describing the implications of the Neolithic Revolution for human societies around the world.
http://geography.ou.edu/courses/1103bw/domestication.htm

Extractions: Contents Introduction Human Evolution, Diffusion, and Character The Long Baseline: Hunters and Gatherers ... Countrysides Abroad 4. The Domestication of Plants and Animals Over the last 10,000 years, forgotten peoples transformed hundreds of plants and animals into the domesticated species upon which we absolutely depend today. "Absolutely" is none too strong a word. In a way, it's even an understatement, because although there are about 2,000 of these genetically transformed plants, a mere handful sustain the human race. Jack Harlan wrote in The Living Fields (1990) that 61% of the edible dry matter of the world's major crops came from wheat, corn, and rice, in that order. He calculated that the runners-up, in descending order, were barley, soybeans, cane sugar, sorghum, potatoes ("Irish" potatoes), oats, manioc (the source of tapioca), sweet potato, sugarbeet, rye, and millet. No other crop accounted for as much as one percent of the total. DOMESTICATES. What traits distinguish domesticated from wild species? Some of the differences are very visible. Domesticated sheep, goats, pigs, and, especially, cattle, are smaller than their wild ancestors, presumably because this change made them more manageable. (This is a point that was made as long ago as 1865, in Francis Galton's The Domestication of Animals.
