Issues related to population growth, climate change, reduction of genetic diversity of economically important agricultural plants make scientists look for ways to maximize crop productivity. The way out of this situation is the study of genetic resources of modern plants and their ancestral forms. New knowledge in the study of plant genetic collections can be obtained on the basis of interdisciplinary research. An example of an interdisciplinary approach is one way of studying the evolution of domesticated crops through works of art. Artworks are a valuable source of information about cultivated plants, allowing the study of the different stages of domestication and cultivation of plants. There are several areas of such research: visual analysis, archaeogenetics, and artgenetics. In this article, we make two contributions to the existing problematics. First, we attempt to review the emergence of new terminology such as visual analysis, archaeogenetics, and arthgenetics and build a link between them. Second, we focus on wheat plants depicted in art paintings. We describe the evolution of the plant height trait, the transition from tall to stunted forms.
