Bats have been found to evolve into bigger sizes in exactly the same way in separate locations, in a very rare example of parallel evolution. It's so rare that it is the first time parallel ...

Parallel evolution Researchers also wanted to figure out why and how baleen whales evolved from toothed whales. They found that features of the dolphin’s skeleton beyond its neck implied that ...

Parallel Evolution: Proteins Do It, Too Date: June 12, 2006 Source: University of Michigan Summary: Wings, spines, saber-like teeth -- nature and the fossil record abound with examples of ...

Researchers have discovered that the genes related to extracellular matrix (ECM) and the Wnt signaling pathway characterize ...

In parallel evolution, closely related species that live apart independently evolve similar traits when confronted with similar environmental challenges. For example, the ancestors of living ...

But scientists have debated whether examples of so-called adaptive, parallel evolution also can be found at the level of genes and proteins. Wings, spines, ...

But at the DNA and protein sequence level, it's very rare to find parallel evolution. This paper provides a real example," said Zhang, an associate professor of ecology and evolutionary biology.
