Harmonising distributed tree inventory datasets across India can fill critical gaps in tropical ecology

The paper compiles and analyzes Indian tree inventory data to highlight sampling gaps and promote data standardization for tropical ecology studies.

Frugivory and seed predation of fishtail palm (Caryota mitis Lour.) on the remote oceanic island of Narcondam, India

The paper examines seed dispersal and predation of Caryota mitis on Narcondam Island, finding that the endemic hornbill is the sole disperser and the invasive rodent is the sole predator, leading to low seed survival.

Range restricted old and young lineages show the southern Western Ghats to be both museum and cradle of diversity for woody plants

The paper examines the southern Western Ghats as both a museum and cradle of woody plant evolutionary diversity using phylogenetic and distribution analyses.

Large frugivores matter more on an island: insights from island-mainland comparison of plant-frugivore communities

The paper compares plant-frugivore communities on an island and mainland, finding the island community more asymmetric and nested, with figs and the Narcondam Hornbill playing central roles.

TIRAP drives myelosuppression through an Ifnγ-Hmgb1 axis that disrupts the marrow microenvironment

This paper identifies TIRAP as a driver of myelosuppression through an Ifnγ-Hmgb1 axis that disrupts the bone marrow microenvironment, independent of T cell function or pyroptosis.
