When a Crop Goes Back to the Wild: Feralization.

Feral plants have been known since the inception of modern agriculture, but the genetic changes during what seemed to be a simple reversion of a domesticated form are poorly understood. Recent studies, revealing the changes occurring in weedy rice, show an unexpected degree of differentiation in these feral escapes.
