## Facts

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Description | This cluster of papers explores the origins and domestication of chickens, focusing on genetic diversity, mitochondrial DNA analysis, indigenous and family poultry breeds, their role in rural economies, and contribution to food security and gender equality. The research also delves into the use of ancient DNA to study ancestral Polynesian chickens and the impact of chicken production on poverty alleviation in Africa. |
