Towards a Jōmon food database: construction, analysis and implications for Hokkaido and the Ryukyu Islands, Japan
Komatsu, Aya; Cooper, Elisabeth; Alsos, Inger Greve; Brown, Antony (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-06-27)One of the most entrenched binary oppositions in archaeology and anthropology has been the agriculturalist vs hunter-gatherer-fisher dichotomy fuelling a debate that this paper tackles from the bottom-up by seeking to reconstruct full past diets. The Japanese prehistoric Jōmon cultures survived without fully-developed agriculture for more than 10,000 years. Here we compile a comprehensive, holistic ... -
Trans-Atlantic genetic uniformity in the rare snowbed sedge Carex rufina
Westergaard, Kristine; Alsos, Inger Greve; Engelskjøn, Torstein; Flatberg, Kjell Ivar; Brochmann, Christian (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)The red-listed, amphi-Atlantic sedge Carex rufina is highly specialized to certain alpine snowbeds, and threatened by current changes in snow cover duration and moisture conditions. Here we address its range-wide genetic diversity, history, and conservation using amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs). Despite extensive primer testing, we detected very low overall diversity (4.1% polymorphic ...
