## Abstract

Molecular ecology and evolution are central to understanding how biological systems function, interact, and diversify. A special issue of this journal reflects the growing synergy of molecular, genomic and cell biology with ecological and evolutionary reasoning. Accordingly, EMBO Press is recalibrating its editorial practices to better support studies embedded in ecological and evolutionary contexts.
