The domestication of Asian rice (Oryza sativa) was a complex process punctuated by episodes of introgressive hybridization among and between subpopulations. Deep genetic divergence between the two main varietal groups (Indica and Japonica) suggests domestication from at least two distinct wild populations. However, genetic uniformity surrounding key domestication genes across divergent subpopulations suggests cultural exchange of genetic material among ancient farmers.

Earlier grasses. And earlier plant types. Unless you are a Young Earth creationist, in which case everything was created as it is now in 4004 BC.

Either way, have a nice day. Bye.
