현대 감자의 원조는 페루
Modern potato had roots in Peru

미국의 과학자들이 현대의 여러 가지 감자들이 7,000년 이상 이전의 페루가 단일 기원임을 밝혀냈다.

감자는 페루에서 아르젠티나에 이르는 넓은 기원을 갖는 것으로 믿어져 왔었다.

미국의 위스콘신 메디슨 대학의 David Spooner박사가 이끈 이 팀은 360개의 야생감자 및 재배 감자들의 DNA를 분석했다.

약 3억 톤의 감자가 전 세계에서 해마다 생산된다.

이 연구는 미 농림부가 후원했다.

원예농업 교수인 Spooner박사는 고고학적 발견으로 감자가 페루에서 7,000년 이상 이전에 농부들에 의해 재배되고 있었음을 보여주었다고 말했다.

“재배감자들의 이전 여러 기원설과 달리, 우리는 남부 페루의 넓은 지역이 단일 기원임을 밝혀냈다.”라고 그 과학자가 말했다. 그는 1년에 2달을 남아메리카 산맥 지역을 여행하며 야생감자를 수집하는데 보냈다.

감자는 1570년경 스페인 정복자들에 의해 스페인으로 보내졌다. 그리고 유럽 전역으로 퍼졌다.

그리고 나중에 영국 이주자들에 의해 북 아메리카로 소개되었다.

Modern potato had roots in Peru
US scientists have found that all modern varieties of potatoes can be
traced back to a single source - a spud grown in Peru over 7,000 years ago.

It had been believed potatoes had a much wider region of origin,
stretching from Peru to northern Argentina.

The team, led by Dr David Spooner of the University of
Wisconsin-Madison, analysed the DNA of about 360 potatoes, both wild
and cultivated.

Some 300 million tonnes of potatoes are produced around the world every year.

The study was sponsored by the US Department of Agriculture.

Dr Spooner, a professor of horticulture, said archaeological finds
had shown potatoes were being grown in Peru by farmers "more than
7,000 years ago".

"In contrast to all prior hypotheses of multiple origins of the
cultivated potato, we have identified a single origin from a broad
area of southern Peru," said the scientist, who spends two months a
year collecting wild potatoes on treks in South America's mountainous regions.

Potatoes were brought back to Spain by the conquistadors around 1570,
and spread throughout Europe.

They were later introduced in North America by British colonists.




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Ethics" is simply a last-gasp attempt by deist conservatives and
orthodox dogmatics to keep humanity in ignorance and obscurantism,
through the well tried fermentation of fear, the fear of science and
new technologies.

There is nothing glorious about what our ancestors call history,
it is simply a succession of mistakes, intolerances and violations.

On the contrary, let us embrace Science and the new technologies
unfettered, for it is these which will liberate mankind from the
myth of god, and free us from our age old fears, from disease,
death and the sweat of labour.
