The journal focuses largely on the fields of Phylogenetic tree, Phylogenetics, Evolutionary biology, Monophyly and Zoology. The Phylogenetic tree works featured in Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution incorporate elements from Taxon and Genus. The work on Phylogenetics tackled in Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution brings together disciplines like Taxonomy (biology), Botany and Nuclear gene, Mitochondrial DNA.
It explores issues in Evolutionary biology which can be linked to other research areas like Ecology, Lineage (evolution), Species complex, Coalescent theory and Phylogenomics. Ecology research presented in it encompasses a variety of subjects, including Phylogeography, Vicariance and Biological dispersal. The research on Monophyly featured in Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution combines topics in other fields like Sister group, Molecular clock, Polyphyly, Subgenus and Paraphyly.
The study on Zoology presented in it intersects with subjects under the field of Cytochrome b. Gene and Genome are some of the facets of Genetics tackled in it.
Phylogenetic tree, Phylogenetics, Zoology, Monophyly and Evolutionary biology are the main subjects of interest in the most cited publications. The journal papers hold forums on Phylogenetic tree that merge themes from other disciplines such as Taxon, Botany and Mitochondrial DNA. The published articles address concerns in Evolutionary biology which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Ecology and Species complex.
The main points discussed in Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution deals with Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetic tree, Phylogenetics, Clade and Monophyly. The Evolutionary biology study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Coalescent theory. The journal addresses concerns in Phylogenetic tree which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Genus and Biogeography.
While work presented in the journal provided substantial information on Phylogenetics, it also covered topics in Taxon, Systematics and Species complex. Issues in Taxon were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Molecular phylogenetics, Polyphyly, Braconidae, Tanypodinae and Subfamily. Some problems in Monophyly that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under Range (biology), Allopatric speciation, Gobiesocidae and Habitat.
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 Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution (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 Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution (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 2022 edition, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 33.33% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 16.67% of all publications and 50.00% 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)Studying Biology and Biochemistry opens doors to a variety of fulfilling careers in healthcare, research, and administration. For those interested in mental health, pursuing a child psychologist masters programs online offers a flexible path to specialize in developmental psychology and support young populations.
Moreover, individuals seeking to work directly with patients and communities may consider an online counseling degree. This option is ideal for those aiming to provide guidance and mental wellness services while balancing other commitments.
Beyond clinical roles, managing healthcare systems is crucial for advancing medical services. An online health admin degree prepares graduates to lead organizations, optimize operations, and impact public health outcomes effectively.
For Biology majors specifically, exploring the highest paying jobs with a biology degree can provide valuable insight into lucrative career options such as biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and environmental science. These fields combine strong science foundations with practical applications that benefit society.
