Evolution is traditionally associated with a process of increasing complexity and gaining new genes. However, the explosion ...

The field of population genomics surveys patterns in the genome within and among populations to make inferences about evolution and the genome. Aa Aa Aa Variation in Population Divergence Among ...

Evolution can produce different patterns over time. We can label the three main patterns as divergent, convergent and parallel evolution. Divergent evolution occurs when related populations become ...

The mosaic nature of genomic divergence arises from of the combined actions of multiple, simultaneous evolutionary processes, including natural selection, gene flow, genetic drift, recombination, and ...

The researchers argue that the transition from the Rhyniophytic Flora to the Eophytic Flora was likely driven by the evolution of divergent life-history strategies within Zosterophyllum and more ...
