To understand how environmental conditions influence evolution and adaptation in organisms, Divita Garg pursued her PhD at Ahmedabad University.
As she graduates at the 16th Annual Convocation, Divita reflects on her journey studying thermal plasticity in wing pigmentation and wing interference patterns in Drosophila species. Her research explored how temperature affects wing colouration, structural patterns, and fitness-related traits, offering deeper insights into environmental adaptation and evolutionary biology.
Through her work, Divita uncovered how these traits respond to changing climatic conditions and how they may influence survival, stress response, and mate selection across species and habitats.
Hear Divita share her key takeaways from Ahmedabad University and her future aspirations. We wish her the very best in her future endeavours and look forward to seeing her research contribute to the broader understanding of evolutionary adaptation.
