In a study, researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology, Rupnagar, have explored how prey is caught and retained by a healthy spider web when compared with a damaged one. The study, published in the journal Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A, was featured under the theme 'Bioinspired materials and surfaces for green science and technology'. The researchers studied the webs of St Andrew's Cross spider (Argiope aetherea), which builds orb-webs and belongs to the Araneidae family.
In a new study, researchers from the National Centre for Biological Sciences (NCBS), Bengaluru, and the Pennsylvania State University and Colorado State University in the USA, have studied how flies land on ceilings. The researchers have also explored how the fly’s brain integrates visual and balance-related inputs from the surroundings to generate appropriate movement in the wings and legs to achieve a perfect landing.

In a recent study, researchers from Agharkar Research Institute, India, Harbin Normal University, China and the University of Colorado, USA, have described a new genus of diatoms called Kulikovskiyia. Diatoms belonging to this genus are currently found only in the Western Ghats of India and Hainan Province of China. The study, funded by the Science and Engineering Research Board, was published in the journal Phycological Research.
ಈ ವರ್ಷದ ಬೇಸಿಗೆ ಕಾಲ, ಮಳೆಗಾಲದ ಅವಧಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಭಾರತದ ಅನೇಕ ಪ್ರದೇಶಗಳು ಬರಗಾಲ ಮತ್ತು ಪ್ರವಾಹಗಳಿಂದ ತತ್ತರಿಸಿದವು. ನೀರಾವರಿಗಾಗಿ ಮಳೆಯ ಮೇಲೆ ಅವಲಂಬಿತವಾಗಿರುವ ದೇಶದಲ್ಲಿ (ವ್ಯತಿರಿಕ್ತ) ವಿನಾಶಕಾರಿ ಹವಾಮಾನದಿಂದಾಗಿ ಉಂಟಾಗುವ ಬೆಳೆಗಳ ನಷ್ಟವು ರೈತರಿಗೆ ತೊಂದರೆ ಉಂಟು ಮಾಡಿದೆ.
