Early Turkey Domestication Project Investigators: Erin Thornton and Kitty Emery The turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) is one of the most important food birds in the world, and the only indigenous animal domesticated in North/Central America. Despite the turkey’s importance to both ancient and modern
The project is inter-disciplinary: integrating zooarchaeological, isotopic, and DNA

The iconic eyespots that some moths and butterflies use to ward off predators likely evolved in distinct ways, providing insights into how these insects became so diverse. A new study manipulated early eyespot development in moth pupae to test whether this wing pattern develops similarly in butte
