A new study theorizes that evolution ticks at different speeds, especially when a big group of organisms first appears.

For a long time, evolutionary biologists have thought that the genetic mutations that drive the evolution of genes and proteins are largely neutral: they're neither good nor bad, but just ordinary ...

A new computational tool improves the analysis of genetic data, making it easier and faster to study the evolutionary relationships between species. A new computational tool improves the analysis of ...

Biologists are closing in on a puzzle that seems to turn classic evolutionary logic inside out, yet may be so common that it deserves to be called a new rule of life. Instead of always purging harmful ...

Researchers from Institute of Science Tokyo present the underlying reasons behind the evolutionary bias in reproductive strategies of egg-care species. Using 240 whole genome sequences of fish species ...

An international team of researchers, with the involvement of the UAB, has conducted a study that explains the evolutionary ...

The Molecular Evolution, Protein Engineering, and Production (MEPEP) Facility, part of the Purdue Institute of Inflammation, Immunology and Infectious Disease (PI4D), is a new discovery resource ...
