Coevolutionrefers to evolution that occurs among interdependentspeciesas a result of specific interactions. That is, adaptations occurring in one species spur reciprocal adaptations in another species or multiple species. Coevolutionary processes are important in ecosystems as these types of interactions sh...
Co-evolution is the process by which two (or more) sets of orthologs exhibit a similar or a correlative pattern of evolution. Co-evolution can be measured in various ways; those most commonly used are: the similarity in absolute Evolutionary Rate (ER; dN; the rate of non-synonymous substitu...

The obligate mutualism between fig trees (Ficus, Moraceae) and pollinating fig wasps (Agaonidae) is a model system for studying co-evolution due to its perceived extreme specificity, but recent studies have reported a number of examples of trees pollinated by more than one fig wasp or sharing ...

This has allowed some researchers to study coevolution through bilateral transfer. * In terrestrial habitats, Monogeneans exist as internal (endoparasites) parasites of non-fish hostsIn marine, freshwater and brackish water habitats, the majority of Monogeneans can be found on the skin and gills ...

In a seemingly endless game of “hide and seek”, pathogens have to acquire traits and find a way to avert the hosts’ immune system so that they could persist for a favorable period, preferably undetected or unharmed. Thus, it becomes important from the co-evolution standpoint that a pathog...
