In order to make series continue, plants had some certain gene mutation to adapt to the changed climate, and this is the result of plants adapted to the change of environment. Mass propagation of annual plants created possibility for the origin of agriculture. From the perspective of breeding of plant species along with climate change, the author illustrated that the origin of agriculture could not be separated from certain climate conditions.
