Difference between Convergent evolution and Recurrent evolution

Convergent evolution vs. Recurrent evolution

Convergent evolution is the independent evolution of similar features in species of different lineages. Recurrent evolution is the repeated evolution of a particular character.

Similarities between Convergent evolution and Recurrent evolution

Convergent evolution and Recurrent evolution have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): C4 carbon fixation, Cis-regulatory element, Directional selection, Evolution, Genetic drift, Natural selection, Negative selection (natural selection), Parallel evolution, Phylogenetics.

C4 carbon fixation

C4 carbon fixation or the Hatch-Slack pathway is a photosynthetic process in some plants.

Cis-regulatory element

Cis-regulatory elements (CREs) are regions of non-coding DNA which regulate the transcription of neighboring genes.

Directional selection

In population genetics, directional selection is a mode of natural selection in which an extreme phenotype is favored over other phenotypes, causing the allele frequency to shift over time in the direction of that phenotype.

Evolution

Evolution is change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations.

Genetic drift

Genetic drift (also known as allelic drift or the Sewall Wright effect) is the change in the frequency of an existing gene variant (allele) in a population due to random sampling of organisms.

Natural selection

Natural selection is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype.

Negative selection (natural selection)

In natural selection, negative selection or purifying selection is the selective removal of alleles that are deleterious.

Parallel evolution

Parallel evolution is the development of a similar trait in related, but distinct, species descending from the same ancestor, but from different clades.

Phylogenetics

In biology, phylogenetics (Greek: φυλή, φῦλον – phylé, phylon.

The list above answers the following questions

Convergent evolution and Recurrent evolution Comparison

Convergent evolution has 130 relations, while Recurrent evolution has 40. As they have in common 9, the Jaccard index is 5.29% = 9 / (130 + 40).
