Host ecological context influences taxonomic diversity and functional conservation of gut microbiome across anthropogenic habitats in macaques

Vani Kulkarni, K. Praveen Karanth, S. Radhakrishna

This study shows that gut microbiome responses to human disturbance in macaques depend on host ecology, with taxonomic and functional changes differing across species despite shared environmental exposure.

Nested Effects of Climate and Substrate in Functional Trait Investment: Insights from Chemical Communication in Geckos

Madhura Agashe, Aritra Biswas, K. Praveen Karanth

The paper examines how climate and substrate influence chemical communication traits in geckos, finding substrate has the strongest direct effect while climate acts indirectly through substrate availability.
