Mitochondrial DNA reveals multiple introductions of domestic chicken in East Africa
Chicken were possibly domesticated in South and Southeast Asia. They occur ubiquitously in East Africa where they show extensive phenotypic diversity. They appeared in the region relatively late, with the first undisputed evidence of domestic chicken in Sudan, around not, vert, similar 700 BC. We re...
