The researchers were also able to group Spaniards into five genetic clusters. On a map, these groups form five strips running north to south. Those strips line up neatly with history.
I wonder if you’d get a similar pattern looking at crops, say wheat. There’s lots of material in genebanks to play around with.
LATER: Thanks to David Marshall for pointing out that work has been done on barley.
It just needs someone to compare the patterns now. And repeat for other crops.
