Deciphering the evolutionary ecology of snake venoms and its impact on snakebite therapy in India
Venom, being an adaptive trait, has propelled the expansion of snake lineages across diverse habitats, such as the biogeographically distinct Indian landscapes. Natural selection optimises the potency, composition and ... -
Dispersal Patterns and Processes in Littorinid Snails along the Indian Coastline
Dispersal has important ecological and evolutionary consequences for a species. Marine dispersal is unique because of facilitation by ocean currents, where oceanography interacts with species traits and environmental ... -
Mathematical and Computational Modelling Investigations of the Role of Trait Variation in Savanna-Woodland Bistable systems
Over the last decade, several studies have shown the importance of individual variation in natural populations. Theoretical ecological studies are beginning to incorporate trait variations in models, but they continue to ... -
Patterns and drivers of elevational migration in Himalayan birds
Migration is a behavioural strategy that species use to deal with seasonal variation in climate and resources. A common form of migration is elevational migration, which is a short-distance movement undertaken by mountain ... -
When challenges dictate choices: Environmental risks alter lizard foraging and nutritional ecology
Foraging is an indispensable task for all animals, providing energy for all fitness-relative activities. While foraging is often viewed as maximizing food intakes while minimizing time and energy costs, this food-centric ...
