Overview

Russell Bonduriansky is affiliated with the University of New South Wales in Australia and primarily works within the fields of Agricultural and Biological Sciences as well as Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology. Their research spans several subfields including Ecology, Evolution, Behavior and Systematics, Genetics, Ecology, Insect Science, and Sociology and Political Science.

Their research topics include animal behavior and reproduction, plant and animal studies, insect and arachnid ecology and behavior, evolution and genetic dynamics, genetics, aging and longevity in model organisms, evolutionary game theory and cooperation, and animal ecology and behavior studies.

Russell Bonduriansky has contributed several recent papers notable for topics related to ecology, evolution, and genetics. These include:

  • Sexual dimorphism in trait variability and its eco-evolutionary and statistical implications (2020, eLife)
  • The Biology of Aging in Insects: From Drosophila to Other Insects and Back (2021, Annual Review of Entomology)
  • Mapping the past, present and future research landscape of paternal effects (2020, BMC Biology)
  • Sperm depletion in relation to developmental nutrition and genotype in Drosophila melanogaster (2021, Evolution)
  • Dietary restriction and lifespan: adaptive reallocation or somatic sacrifice? (2022, FEBS Journal)

Recurring coauthors frequently collaborating with Bonduriansky include Nathan W. Burke, Susanne Zajitschek, Felix Zajitschek, Daniela Wilner, and Robert C. Brooks.
