We could also mention that "this part of biology" [evolution] is the central unifying theory of it. "Nothing in biology makes sense" without it in Dobzhansky's phrase.

while I agree that the theory of speciation through mutation and selection does indeed unify biology, I believe it is a bit of an overtatement to say that "nothing in biology makes sense without it"
