This journal publishes research on evolutionary biology, focusing on the genetic and phenotypic mechanisms underlying adaptation, diversification, and speciation across diverse taxa. Articles explore topics such as the evolution of morphology, behavior, and gene expression in response to ecological pressures, hybridization, and environmental changes, often employing phylogenetic comparative methods and genomic analyses.
Based on the Think.Check.Submit framework by DOAJ, COPE & OASPA. All data from verified open sources.
