The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication (1868) is a dated two-volume treatise, not Origin split

In 1868 The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication was published as a two-volume treatise. The instrument is that dated book, not Origin chapter-split and not later genetics as his unique 1868 laboratory. In the causal graph this event strengthens Digital Learning Access, a driver that weakens Learning Poverty Rate (low- and middle-income countries) — an improving welfare path.
