In the first of ten chapters, general historical information, definitions, and background of research on oxidative stress physiology, hormesis, and life history are provided. Chapters 2-10 highlight the different solutions that organisms have evolved to cope with the oxidative threats posed by their environments and lifestyles. The author illustrates how oxidative stress and hormesis have shaped diversity in organism life-histories, behavioral profiles, morphological phenotypes, and aging mechanisms. The book offers fascinating insights into how organisms work and how they evolve to sustain their physiological functions under a vast array of environmental conditions.Animal physiologyOxidative stressAnimal ecologyBiodiversityEvolutionary biologyDevelopmental biologyAnimal Physiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33030Oxidative Stresshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16070Animal Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19015Biodiversityhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19031Evolutionary Biologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L21001Developmental Biologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L18000Animal physiology.Oxidative stress.Animal ecology.Biodiversity.Evolutionary biology.Developmental biology.Animal Physiology.Oxidative Stress.Animal Ecology.Biodiversity.Evolutionary Biology.Developmental Biology.570571.1571.8571.9453Costantini Davidauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1058820BOOK9910298319803321Oxidative Stress and Hormesis in Evolutionary Ecology and Physiology2502666UNINA
