Evolution

Evolution, the basis of the theory of descent with modification, is the change in heritable characteristics of biological populations over generations, explained by Darwin's natural selection and confirmed by fossil and DNA evidence.

Evolution and conservation of long non-coding RNAs

Evolution and conservation of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) is dominated by rapid birth and death: most lncRNAs cannot be traced beyond about 50 million years.

Evolution and ecology of alkaloid biosynthesis

The evolution and ecology of alkaloid biosynthesis is the study of how plant alkaloid pathways arise independently by gene duplication, are repeatedly lost, and are shaped by herbivore coevolution.

Evolution and fossil record of myriapods

The evolution and fossil record of myriapods traces millipedes and centipedes as likely the first land animals, led by Scotland's Silurian millipede Pneumodesmus newmani, about 414 million years old.

Evolution and fossil record of Pauropoda

Evolution and fossil record of pelagic tunicates

Pelagic tunicates are open-ocean chordates, including salps, doliolids, pyrosomes, and larvaceans, that evolved from seafloor ascidian-like ancestors and left a very sparse fossil record.
