AI Article Synopsis
- Indigenous Peoples have played a significant role in shaping their environments and the plants within them over thousands of years.
- Restoration science frequently ignores the traditional practices of Indigenous communities, including how they affect plant growth and traits.
- Recognizing and integrating Indigenous plant-use histories in restoration projects can help protect both plant species and Indigenous cultures from decline.
Article Abstract
Indigenous Peoples have manipulated environments and species for millennia. However, restoration science often overlooks ancient human plant dispersal, niche construction, and selection pressures that may have resulted in plant 'cultural traits'. Concerted efforts to acknowledge Indigenous plant-use histories in restoration could help to abate the coextinction of species and cultures.
