Abstract

The 4th Systematic Biology Forum, China took place in December 2019, covering a vast array of topics across animals, bacteria, fungi, plants, and viruses in the fields of systematics and evolutionary biology. Here, we discuss the emergent themes of this meeting and how these and other interdisciplinary research programs can be synthesized to better understand evolution in a systematic framework.
