JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR EVOLUTION

Journal of Molecular Evolution covers experimental, computational, and theoretical work aimed at deciphering features of molecular evolution and the processes bearing on these features, from the initial formation of macromolecular systems through their evolution at the molecular level, the co-evolution of their functions in cellular and organismal systems, and their influence on organismal adaptation, speciation, and ecology. Topics addressed include the evolution of informational macromolecules and their relation to more complex levels of biological organization, including populations and taxa, as well as the molecular basis for the evolution of ecological interactions of species and the use of molecular data to infer fundamental processes in evolutionary ecology. This coverage accommodates such subfields as new genome sequences, comparative structural and functional genomics, population genetics, the molecular evolution of development, the evolution of gene regulation and gene interaction networks, and in vitro evolution of DNA and RNA, molecular evolutionary ecology, and the development of methods and theory that enable molecular evolutionary inference, including but not limited to, phylogenetic methods.

分子进化杂志涵盖了实验、计算和理论工作旨在解密功能的分子进化和影响这些特性的过程,从最初的形成大分子系统在演化过程中在分子的层次上,联合进化的细胞和器官系统的功能,及其影响有机体的适应、物种形成、生态。讨论的主题包括信息大分子的进化及其与更复杂的生物组织层次(包括种群和分类群)的关系，以及物种生态相互作用进化的分子基础，以及利用分子数据推断进化生态学的基本过程。这覆盖等领域提供新的基因组序列,比较结构和功能基因组学、群体遗传学、分子进化的发展,基因调控和基因相互作用网络的发展,DNA和RNA和体外进化,分子进化生态学、和方法和理论的发展,使分子进化推理,包括但不限于系统方法。
