Local indigenous knowledge can be a starting point for novel investigations into crop plant evolution. (a) The highlighted example includes combining traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) with botanical resources to understand co-adaptation of multiple crops in polycultures. (b) Combining it with genomics to elucidate genetic basis of non-canonical domestication traits. (c) Inspiring processing experiments that will allow comparisons with archaeological record.
