This document discusses the theory of co-evolution and the role of allelochemicals in host plant mediation. It defines co-evolution as reciprocal evolutionary change between interacting species. Examples of co-evolution discussed include predator-prey relationships, interactions between herbivores and plants, acacia ants and acacia trees, and flowering plants and pollinators. It also describes how plants have evolved physical and chemical defenses against herbivores, including thorns, spines, and compounds like phenolics and terpenoids. Finally, it explains that allelochemicals produced by plants can influence other organisms and protect the host plant by altering plant growth regulators and inhibiting pathogens.

Honey bees are social insects, which means that they live together in large, well-organized family group.
Communication, complex net construction, environmental control, defense and divison of the labor are just some of the behaviour that honey bees have developed to exist successfully in social colonies.
A honey bees colony typically consists of three kinds of the bees 1) Queen. 2) Workers. 3) Drones.
In addition to thousands of workers adults, a colony normally has a single queen & several hundred drones.
Honey bees live in comb or nest.
Mutual cooperation exist.

Taxonomy: Taxonomy is the science of defining and naming groups of biological organisms on the basis of shared characteristics.
The classification of organisms is according to hierarchal system or in taxonomic ranks (eg; domain, kingdom, phylum class, order, family, genus and species) based on phylogenetic relationship established by genetic analysis.
Taxonomic Collection : Biological collection are typically preserved plant or animals specimens along with specimen documentations such as labels and notations.
Dry Collection - Dry collections consist of those specimens that are preserved in a dry state.
Wet Collection - Wet collections are specimens kept in a liquid preservative to prevent their deterioration.

Ecological interactions form the backbone of an ecosystem. It helps in maintaining the
dynamic equilibrium of an ecosystem. All organisms are linked to at least one other species in a
variety of critical ways, for example, as predators or prey, or as pollinators or seed dispersers with the
result that each species is embedded in a complex network of interactions. Consequently, the
extinction of one species can lead to a cascade of secondary extinctions in ecological networks.
Moreover, interactions between species can lead to ‘community closure’ after the loss of a species,
with the result that a locally extinct species cannot re-establish itself if it is reintroduced. Many
ecological interactions involve flagship species and keystone species as in the case of Macaca
silenus & Cullenia exarillata. Then some interactions like mycorrhiza help in nitrogen fixation.
Strategies like predation reduce the loss of vegetation through grazing. Interaction can be either intraspecific or interspecific. Interactions between individuals of the same species
and those between individuals of different species are called intra- & interspecific interactions.

Micro RNA genes and their likely influence in rice (Oryza sativa L.) dynamic ...Open Access Research Paper
Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs molecules having approximately 18-25 nucleotides, they are present in both plants and animals genomes. MiRNAs have diverse spatial expression patterns and regulate various developmental metabolisms, stress responses and other physiological processes. The dynamic gene expression playing major roles in phenotypic differences in organisms are believed to be controlled by miRNAs. Mutations in regions of regulatory factors, such as miRNA genes or transcription factors (TF) necessitated by dynamic environmental factors or pathogen infections, have tremendous effects on structure and expression of genes. The resultant novel gene products presents potential explanations for constant evolving desirable traits that have long been bred using conventional means, biotechnology or genetic engineering. Rice grain quality, yield, disease tolerance, climate-resilience and palatability properties are not exceptional to miRN Asmutations effects. There are new insights courtesy of high-throughput sequencing and improved proteomic techniques that organisms’ complexity and adaptations are highly contributed by miRNAs containing regulatory networks. This article aims to expound on how rice miRNAs could be driving evolution of traits and highlight the latest miRNA research progress. Moreover, the review accentuates miRNAs grey areas to be addressed and gives recommendations for further studies.

Diabetes is a rapidly and serious health problem in Pakistan. This chronic condition is associated with serious long-term complications, including higher risk of heart disease and stroke. Aggressive treatment of hypertension and hyperlipideamia can result in a substantial reduction in cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes 1. Consequently pharmacist-led diabetes cardiovascular risk (DCVR) clinics have been established in both primary and secondary care sites in NHS Lothian during the past five years. An audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery at the clinics was conducted in order to evaluate practice and to standardize the pharmacists’ documentation of outcomes. Pharmaceutical care issues (PCI) and patient details were collected both prospectively and retrospectively from three DCVR clinics. The PCI`s were categorized according to a triangularised system consisting of multiple categories. These were ‘checks’, ‘changes’ (‘change in drug therapy process’ and ‘change in drug therapy’), ‘drug therapy problems’ and ‘quality assurance descriptors’ (‘timer perspective’ and ‘degree of change’). A verified medication assessment tool (MAT) for patients with chronic cardiovascular disease was applied to the patients from one of the clinics. The tool was used to quantify PCI`s and pharmacist actions that were centered on implementing or enforcing clinical guideline standards. A database was developed to be used as an assessment tool and to standardize the documentation of achievement of outcomes. Feedback on the audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery and the database was received from the DCVR clinic pharmacist at a focus group meeting.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

2. COEVOLUTION
Coevolution, the process of reciprocal evolutionary change that occurs between pairs
of species or among groups of species as they interact with one another.
Coevolution was first described in the context of insects and flowering plants, and
has since been applied to major evolutionary events, including sexual reproduction,
infectious disease, and ecological communities.
Coevolution Examples –
Predator-Prey Coevolution
Herbivores and plants
Acacia ants and Acacias
Flowering Plants and Pollinators
3. PREDATOR-PREY RELATIONSHIPS
A relationship in which one organism kills another for food is called a predator-prey
relationship.
The organism that does the hunting is the predator.
The organism that is hunted is the prey.
4. HERBIVOROUS AND PLANTS
Herbivores defences – Plants have evolved an impressive array of physical and
chemical defences to avoid herbivory.
Herbivores need to eat plants in order to obtain energy and have therefore
coevolved mechanism to overcome these defences.
Physical defences example – stings, thorns and spines.
Chemical defences example – formed by chemical compounds stored, like phenolics,
terpenoids.
5. ACACIA ANTS AND ACACIAS
The acacias trees produce specialized structures to shelter and feed the ant colony,
and the ants, in turn, defend the tree against herbivores.
A mutual benefit to both plants and insect is that of acacia ants and acacia plants.
6. FLOWERING PLANTS AND POLLINATORS
Birds, bats, butterflies, moths, flies, beetles, wasps, small mammals, and most
importantly, bees are pollinators. They visit flowers to drink nectar or feed off of
pollen and transport pollen grains as they move from spot to spot.
In this respect, flowering plants and pollinators have developed co-adaptations that
allow flowers to attract pollinators, and insect and birds have developed specialized
adaptations for extracting nectar and pollen from the plants.
7. ALLELOCHEMICALS
Allelochemicals are secondary metabolites produced by plants, algae, bacteria, and
fungi that influence the growth and development of other organism.
It is defined as the interaction between plants and micro – organism by a variety of
compounds, usually refferred to as allelopathy, allelo chemicals, or allelopathic
compounds.
The harmful chemicals released by allelopathic plants are known as
allelochemicals. Some allelo chemicals change the amount of chlorophyll production
in a plant and thus, they slow down on stop the photosynthesis process of that plant
which ultimately leads to the suppression or death of that plant.
8. ROLE OF ALLELOCHEMICALS IN HOST PLANTS
MEDIATION
Allelochemicals like phenolics, steroids, saponins, terpenoids, alkaloids, and
flavonoids possessed by different tissues of several plants exhibit numerous
antioxidant production of antioxidant behaviors and ultimately protect the plants
from several deleterious pathogens.
Allelochemicals can alter the contents of plant growth regulators or induce
imbalances in various phytohormones, which inhibits the growth and development
of plants.
