What's true of water striders is true of all functionally organised groups, even human ones: in evolutionary terms, a functionally organised group of altruistic Mother Teresas would beat a functionally organised group of selfish Ayn Rands.
We present here the results of a data mining exercise extending over the 67,413 biological articles published between 2005 and 2010 in the three top-ranking general-science magazines (Science, Nature and Proceedings of the National Academy of the United States of America) as well as in the pages of a dozen qualified biological journals, including the few top ones in evolutionary biology.

The notion of functional shifts is an old one in evolutionary biology, having been considered "an extremely important means of transition" by Darwin (1872, p.147).
So what we had at this point was one good data point for the body covering in tyrannosaurs – feathers yes, but feathers on a pretty small animal and one that in evolutionary terms was quite a way from Tyrannosaurus.
However, both binding sites were among the poorly conserved ones in the evolutionary scale.
Despite our work does not clarify how and why the modifications of some gene networks are constrict on the course of evolution, EPI represents one step in evolutionary relationship understanding by identifying which gene families have been more or less stable on the course of evolution.
Failing to consider all possible hypotheses (Q7) is a general problem in science, one magnified in evolutionary studies because all the alternatives are rarely obvious and some may have intrinsic appeal.
One is that in evolutionary terms, big human brains — with enormous energy requirements — are inversely proportional to gut size.
An alternative measure, the 'heightened' EDGE or HEDGE score [14] includes the probabilities of extinction of other species in the tree, and can be formulated as the expected gain one can make in evolutionary history preserved by protecting a species (see also [15]).
One key question in evolutionary biology deals with the mode and rate at which reproductive isolation accumulates during allopatric speciation.
One key question in evolutionary biology deals with the mode and rate at which reproductive isolation accumulates during allopatric speciation [for overview: [ 1]].
