Chirand and wild rice was harvested during summer and again during winter. The wild forms of rice are "Oryza rifipogon" and "Oryza perennis", from which "Oryza sativa" (Asian rice) originated. The archaeological finds in Chirand are from a Neolithic deposit of thickness, a Chalcolithic layer thick and iron age formation of thickness. Copper was used during the Chalcolithic period, while iron was found in the upper strata. A cache of 88 Kushan period coins were unearthed at the site. Analysis of antiquities related to skeletal remains revealed 12 species of domesticated and wild animals: cattle, buffaloes ("Bubalisbubalis linn"), sheep ("Ovis aries"),
Plant genome assembly products were used to clone remaining gaps, and YACs allowed the characterization of telomere sequences. The resulting sequenced regions were 115.4 Mb of the 125 Mb predicted size of the genome and a total of 25,498 of protein-coding genes. To sequence and assemble the genome of Oryza Sativa (japonica), the same strategy was used. For Oryza Sativa a total of 3,401 mapped clones in a minimum tiling path were selected from the physical map and assembled. One of the most important crops in the world, maize (Zea mays), is the last plant genome project primarily based on Sanger BAC-by-BAC strategy.
