But the decades of exposure to radiation left over from the accident had led to a dramatic and rapid evolutionary change in the frogs – a change entirely driven by human actions. As Orizaolo ...

In which the fundamental process of human evolution is discussed, with special reference to trends that may be caused by artificial radioactivity, medical X-rays and the preservation of harmful genes ...

"Our history is far richer and more complex than we imagined," said human evolutionary geneticist Aylwyn Scally.

Yet, there are many examples of macroevolutionary phenomena found in the order Primates, including stasis, adaptive radiations, extinctions of entire lineages, co-evolution, and convergent evolution.

Modern humans descended from not one, but at least two ancestral populations that drifted apart and later reconnected, long before modern humans spread across the globe.

who says that human populations in both Africa and Eurasia contributed to the evolution of anatomically modern humans (Figure 1; Wolpoff et al., 2000). Just as scientists have used mtDNA to ...
