Evolutionary History of Endemic Species of Bihar
Abstract: Bihar, a state known for its history and rich cultural heritage, is also a refuge of clearly defined species that are unique to the world and are found no place else. The present study involving the history of these species by using genetic analysis, fossil evidence, and ecological studies, investigates the situation. Through initial and secondary explanation, we can realistically infer some of them locked in so closely with their …

Review Paper of the Rich Floral and Faunal Diversity in Chhattisgarh, India
Abstract: Chhattisgarh, a state in central India, is renowned for its rich biodiversity, encompassing a wide variety of plants and animals. This review highlights the critical role that sacred groves—small, often isolated forest patches preserved by local communities—play in maintaining this biodiversity. These groves are repositories of genetic diversity and serve as sanctuaries for numerous species, many of which are threatened by habitat loss and fragmentation. However, the integrity of these …

Climate-Driven Shifts in Vector-Borne Disease Ecology Across South Asia
Abstract: Climate change remains one of the most important phenomena affecting the geographical distribution and movement patterns of vector-borne diseases. In South Asia – characterized by high population density, rich biodiversity, and sharp climatic differences – there is growing evidence of the relationship between increasing temperatures and erratic precipitation, along with the behavior of insect vectors. This research aims to evaluate the effects of climate environmental changes on the distribution and …

Phytochemical profiling and LC/MS analysis of Selaginella bryopteris (L.) Baker
Abstract: Selaginella bryopteris (L.) Baker, an endemic pteridophyte is found restricted to the Indian subcontinent mostly because of its environmental requirements of cool temperatures and optimum water availability. It is a drought-resistant species and shows curling in limited water supply reviving when water conditions are restored. This property makes this species a suitable plant for exploration of medicinal properties, although its restricted occurrence has limited this evaluation. The current study explores …

CRISPR, Recombinant DNA, and LAMP-Based Platforms for Monkeypox: Emerging Tools for Diagnosis and Therapeutic Development
Abstract: Monkeypox, a zoonotic viral infection caused by the Monkeypox virus of the Orthopoxvirus genus, has recurred as a worldwide public health concern after recent outbreaks outside of its classical endemic areas in Central and West Africa. The resurgence has demanded a thorough reassessment of its epidemiology, mode of transmission, and clinical presentation. In light of these challenges, recombinant DNA technology (rDNA) has emerged as a candidate for developing vaccines, diagnostics, …
