The Variation of Animals and Plants Under Domestication — Volume 2
The Variation of Animals and Plants Under Domestication — Volume 2, published in January 1868 by Charles Darwin, examines how domestication influences the variation and inheritance of traits in animals and plants. This volume introduces key concepts such as inheritance, reversion, and atavism, illustrating how traits from distant ancestors can reappear in descendants. Darwin's exploration of genetic transmission and historical connections among domesticated species provides foundational insights into the study of heredity and variation in biology.
