Evolution by natural selection has still been shaping the human species over the last 10,000 years: Here's how
When our distant ancestors first traded nomadic life for farming, villages, and permanent homes, you might assume that the ...

New research suggests that natural selection, famous for rewarding advantageous differences in organisms, can also preserve similarities. The researchers worked with a plant called wild radish and its ...
When most people think about natural selection, they imagine individuals competing with one another: The fastest animal escapes predators, the strongest plant produces more seeds, and the most ...
