For authors considering submitting research involving phylogenetic analysis, please consult our editorial for guidance on the methodologies we consider to be of a suitable standard for consideration in BMC Evolutionary Biology.
Announcement: Launch of BMC Ecology and Evolution
We are pleased to announce that BMC Ecology and BMC Evolutionary Biology has now been merged into one journal and re-launched as BMC Ecology and Evolution. As a result BMC Ecology is no longer open to new submissions and will not publish any new articles. The scope of BMC Evolutionary Biology has now been expanded to include ecology submissions and authors in this field are encouraged to submit to this journal.
Call for papers: Eco-evo-devo
The Editors of BMC Developmental Biology and BMC Ecology and Evolution welcome submissions to the cross-journal special issue on eco-evo-devo, the effect of the environment of development and evolution. Please click the above link for further information and to submit to the collection.
The special issue is open for submissions.

January: Data sharing
Research data are the foundations of reliable and reproducible science. This month, we would like to highlight different ways authors were able to publish and share their data by choosing the BMC series.
Aims and scope
BMC Ecology and Evolution is an open access, peer-reviewed journal that considers articles on all aspects of evolution and ecology, including, but not limited to, molecular and non-molecular evolution, population genetics and phylogenetics, conservation genetics, palaeontology, behavioral and population ecology, macroecology, ecological and evolutionary developmental biology and biodiversity (including environmental DNA)
Submitting a phylogenetic study?
Data support service
Authors submitting to this journal can opt to use a new service that will make it easier to share research data.
