(eds M.C.S. Wopereis et al.) 87 O. glaberrima, both of which are diploid (genome AA, 2n = 24). Oryza sativa was introduced to East Africa, probably in the first century AD, via traders from India (Harlan and Stemler, 1976; Ng et al., 1991) and subsequently to West Africa by the Portuguese in about AD 1500 (Portères, 1962). According to Portères (1962, 1976), O. glaberrima was first domesticated from the wild ancestor O. barthii (formerly known as O. breviligulata) by people living in the inland delta of the upper Niger River about 3500 years BP. The species spread to two secondary centres of domestication, one along the coast of The Gambia, Casamance (Senegal) and Guinea-Bissau and the second in the Guinea forest between Sierra Leone and the western part of Côte d’Ivoire. However, Harlan and Stemler (1976) suggest that O. glaberrima was domesticated from O. barthii in several different localities within the vast forest and savannah areas. Many studies have confirmed that O. barthii is the progenitor of O. glaberrima and both are restricted to West Africa, while O. longistaminata (from which O. barthii is derived) is widely distributed in Africa (Brar and Khush, 2003).
