The answer only began to emerge in the 1930s, thanks in large part to the work of a Soviet-born geneticist named Theodosius Dobzhansky (right). Dobzhansky, who emigrated to the United States in 1928, worked in Thomas Hunt Morgan’s “Fly Room,” where mutations were being studied closely for the first time.
