Behavioural Assessment of Muscle Development by Downregulating Different Types of Integrins in Drosophila melanogaster
Abstract: Muscles play a major role in movement and diverse activities required for survival of an organism. In Drosophila, larval crawling and peristalsis are such kinds of rhythmic movements and are driven by muscle contractions. Larval crawling involves random walk on the solid surface whereas peristalsis involves one full body wall muscle contraction from anterior to posterior or in reverse direction in fluid. Accuracy in the development of muscles is an …

ISSR Marker Analysis of Cypriniform Fishes in Southern Western Ghats
Abstract: The conservation biology and knowledge of the relatedness between populations is particularly important in absorbed breeding programs that attempt to reduce incestuous mating in order to minimize inbreeding. A decline in genetic variation reduces the ability of a population to adapt to environmental changes and decreases its long term survival. The molecular genetic variability among three cyprinids fish species (D. aequippinatus, G. mullya and D. filamentosa) using ISSR markers was …

Codal Validation and Optimization of Gantry Girders Under Variable Wheelbase and Impact Loads: A Review of Analytical, Numerical, and Codal Approaches
Abstract: Gantry girders serve as critical structural elements in industrial facilities such as steel plants, workshops, and heavy manufacturing units, where electric overhead traveling (EOT) cranes operate. The design of these girders is governed by stringent codal provisions to ensure safety under bending, shear, and deflection. However, discrepancies between codal predictions, analytical formulations, and finite element analysis (FEA) results, particularly under variable wheelbase and dynamic impact loads, have been widely reported. …

Land Use and Land Cover Change: A Comprehensive Review of Environmental Implications
Abstract: Changes in land use and cover have a substantial impact on environmental dynamics and sustainability. These changes arise from various human activities, including urbanization, agriculture, and forestry, and have profound implications for biodiversity, ecosystem services, and land health. As urban areas expand, often at the expense of agricultural and forested landscapes, the transformation of land use alters ecological processes, leading to habitat loss and fragmentation. This article examines the implications …

Managing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Insights into Symptoms and Relief
Abstract: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a prevalent and concerning issue affecting the wrist and hand, arising from the compression of the median nerve within the carpal tunnel. This compression results in a spectrum of distressing symptoms, including numbness, tingling, weakness, and discomfort, particularly in the thumb, index, and middle fingers. Despite its frequent association with repetitive hand movements and prolonged use of computers or handheld devices, CTS can stem from …
