The various paths for evolution

Premise : When humans started agriculture, different species of plants adapted in various ways to make use of agriculture.

1. More than usual produce :

Some plants, like wheat started producing bigger seeds than usual so that humans would select them.

2. Losing the protection :

Seeds like almond which in wild could be poisonous and bitter, turned sweet and edible so that humans can harvest them.

3. A step in the opposite :

In the wild, pods are designed to burst open after ripening, to disperse easily. However, the ones that didn't burst, were chosen by humans as food and cultivated.
