- Observation The garlic population diverged at least 100,000 years ago.
- Observation Two garlic groups cultivated in China were domesticated through independent routes.
- Observation Expression changed in 15.0% of genes in one cultivated garlic group.
- Observation Expression changed in 17.5% of genes in the other cultivated garlic group.
- Observation The two domesticated garlic groups had few overlapping deleterious substitutions.
- Observation Bulb traits underwent different selection in the two garlic groups during domestication.
