The identification of individual Hox genes is an essential basis for their study in evolutionary research fields.
Macroecological and evolutionary research is developing into fields investigating ecological and evolutionary aspects of biomes, such as productivity gradients [ 21], extinction risk [ 22], and forest die-back due to climate change across biomes [ 24].
In this sense, Webster et al. (2009) showed that in the research field of evolutionary psychology those articles that had an extensive list of references were cited significantly more frequently.
Authors' response: We fully agree with Ford Doolittle, and thank him very much for his major role in extending the research field of evolutionary biology beyond the TOL.
In spite of grand declarations, the Darwinian goal of classifying organisms in terms of their relationships of common descent has powered evolutionary research and is at the root of the field of phylogenetics.
The exploration of new incentives and methods that optimize harvesting yield while mitigating its eco-evolutionary effects represent a fertile field of work in which evolutionary research may go hand in hand with the design, monitoring and evaluation of the impacts of such measures.
In this paper, PROMETHEE II, an outranking method developed in the operational research field, has been implemented in an evolutionary algorithm.
This work aims to contribute formulating the basis to extend the research field of Computer Aided Innovation, to the next evolutionary step called "Open CAI 2.0".
We critically assess this claim from the perspective of ecologic immunology, a research field that analyzes immune function in an ecologic, physiologic, and evolutionary context.
The evolutionary basis of contemporary phenotypic variation in human development and life history is an active research field (Kuzawa and Bragg, 2012).
