The concepts of Evolutionary biology, Anatomy, Genetics, Gene and Zoology are tackled in the journal. The Evolutionary biology works featured in Evolution & Development incorporate elements from Ecology, Ontogeny, Phylogenetics and Phylogenetic tree. The majority of Ecology studies in Evolution & Development are focused on the subject of Larva.
In particular, the Larva works presented emphasize discussions on Metamorphosis. Anatomy research presented in Evolution & Development encompasses a variety of subjects, including Arthropod, Vertebrate, Body plan and Cell biology. Embryo and Gastrulation studies are all carried out as a component of the study in Cell biology presented.
Phenotype, Hox gene, Homeobox, Drosophila melanogaster and Regulation of gene expression are all aspects of Genetics research featured in Evolution & Development. Presentations on Gene include those discussing Gene expression, Gene duplication and Genome.
The published papers cover a variety of subjects, including Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Anatomy, Gene and Zoology. The study of Evolutionary biology in the published articles encompasses disciplines such as Phylogenetics, as well as fields such as Phylogenetic tree and Conserved sequence, all of which overlap with one another. The most cited papers facilitate discussions on Anatomy that incorporate concepts from other fields like Body plan, Hox gene, Vertebrate, Ectoderm and Cell biology.
The journal mainly tackles studies in Evolutionary biology, Evolutionary developmental biology, Lineage (evolution), Context (language use) and Genetic variation. It addresses concerns in Evolutionary biology which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Ontogeny, Insect, Gene and Phenotypic plasticity. While Gene is the focus of Evolution & Development, it also provided insights into the studies of Fecundity and Colonization.
Research in Gymnosperm and the interrelating topic of Adaptation were among the subjects of interest in the Evolutionary developmental biology studies discussed in the journal. In addition to Context (language use) research, Evolution & Development aims to explore topics under Feature (linguistics), Cognitive science, Meaning (linguistics) and Focus (linguistics). It explores topics in Genetic variation which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Threatened species and Gene regulatory network.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Evolution & Development (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Evolution & Development (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 3.23% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 23.33% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 16.67% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 13.33% of all publications and 46.67% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2021)For students interested in the sciences, pursuing an online bachelor's degree in biology offers a flexible pathway into various research and healthcare fields. These programs often accelerate learning while maintaining rigorous coursework, making them ideal for those looking to enter the workforce sooner.
Another growing area is health and fitness, where an online exercise science degree provides foundational knowledge in human physiology and biomechanics. Students can also explore options to study exercise science online through fast-tracked programs designed for accelerated completion, preparing graduates for careers in physical therapy, coaching, or wellness consulting.
For those interested in combining biology with mental health, affordable options like the affordable pmhnp programs offer specialized training for becoming a psychiatric nurse practitioner. This path integrates knowledge of biochemistry with clinical skills to address mental health challenges comprehensively.
Choosing the right online degree can enhance career prospects while accommodating personal schedules. Exploring these related pathways helps students tailor their education to match evolving industry demands and personal interests.
