It thus forms an alternative to historical hypotheses in which the form of biogenesis is believed to be the product of a linked sequence of specific conditions, bridged by stochastic selection processes. DLC's Molecular Evolution Homepage - The purpose of this page is to provide a resource for people interested in current research being done in molecular evolution, gene expression, and other related fields. Farside Research Institute - The evolution group of the Institute of Molecular BioSciences at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand. Molecular Evolution at Dalhousie University Department of Biochemistry - Conducts research on the early evolution of genes and genomes, using standard methods of molecular genetics as well as computer algorithms.
Site describes work and bibliographies.
Provides a forum for molecular studies that advance the understanding of phylogeny and evolution. Stuart A. Kauffman Home Page - Abstracts and investigations on origins of life, beginning with autocatalytic sets through the mechanism of spontaneous organization. Thermosynthesis could stepwise evolve towards photosynthesis. It may still occur in convecting aquifers on Earth, but also on the many other bodies in the Solar System where water has been found. Towards A New Theory Of Evolution - This site explores the possibility that genetic variation and natural selection are two sides of a unitary and simultaneous response to the struggle for existence, as recent experiments at Harvard and elsewhere on bacteria imply.
