Resumo

This review shows that the interpenetration of population ecology and animal physiology positively affects the both scientific directions that are important fields of modern zoology. Due to progress in the development of telemetry and non-invasive methods to assess the animal state, as well as of moleculargenetic methods that permit to distinguish the markers reflecting the individual history of an individual, the possibilities of studying responses of an organism to environmental impacts have been greatly expanded. The combined use of traditional ecological and modern physiological, immunological, and molecular-genetic methods promotes to reveal mechanisms responsible for the stable existence of population in the dynamic environment. In addition, the analysis of the contribution of physiological and immunological processes to the formation of adaptations on the population level is a requirement to understand their adaptive importance, which is not always evident when considering a problem at the organism-centric level.
