AI Thread Summary
Interplanting and crop rotation are effective agricultural practices that help control pathogenic diseases and parasitic weeds. Interplanting involves growing different crops in proximity, which can create a more diverse ecosystem that limits the spread of diseases. Crop rotation refers to the practice of alternating different crops in the same area across seasons, disrupting the life cycles of pests and diseases. Parasitic weeds are plants that derive some or all of their nutritional requirements from other living plants, often harming the host plants. Understanding these concepts is essential for effective pest and disease management in agriculture.

This thread is my attempt to understanding the evidence that Natural Selection in the human genome was recent and regional. On Page 103 of A Troublesome Inheritance, Wade writes the following: "The regional nature of selection was first made evident in a genomewide scan undertaken by Jonathan Pritchard, a population geneticist at the...
