neo-Darwinism
neo-Darwinism (modern synthesis) The current theory of the process of
evolution, formulated between about 1920 and 1950, that combines evidence from classical genetics with the Darwinian theory of evolution by
natural selection (see
Darwinism). It makes use of modern knowledge of genes and chromosomes to explain the source of the genetic variation upon which selection works. This aspect was unexplained by traditional Darwinism.
