Development Genes and Evolution (DGE)

We are pleased to announce that Development Genes and Evolution became fully open access (OA) on 1 January 2025 and moved into our Discover series as Discover Developmental Biology. As a result, all submissions are subject to an article publication charge (APC) if accepted (unless a waiver is applied) and will be published in Discover Developmental Biology. Please see our FAQs journal update for more information on APCs, funding options, and waivers. Discover Developmental Biology (formerly Development Genes and Evolution) is a fully open access, peer-reviewed journal that supports multidisciplinary research across all fields of biological development relevant to animals, plants and microorganisms. The journal aims to be a resource for researchers, policy makers and the general public for recent advances in developmental biology and its uses in research development and society. As a fully open access journal, we ensure that our research is highly discoverable and instantly available globally to everyone. The journal particularly welcomes work that aims to address the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, especially Good Health and Well-being, Life Below Water, and Life on Land.
