MODELING INSTITUTIONAL REENGINEERING FOR INCLUSIVE DEVELOPMENT (IRID) IN AFRICA


Agonistic and reproductive behaviors in males of red hybrid tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus, 1758) x O. mossambicus (Peters, 1852) (Osteichthyes: Cichlidae)

The red hybrid tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus, 1758) x O.mossambicus (Peters, 1852) is a fertile hybrid used in the semi-intensive level of fish culture in the Northeast of Brazil.It is a territorial cichlid and is highly aggressive towards conspecifics during the breeding season.The purpose of this study was to investigate and describe t

Host Association and Spatial Proximity Shape but Do Not Constrain Population Structure in the Mutualistic Symbiont Xenorhabdus bovienii

ABSTRACT To what extent are generalist species cohesive evolutionary units rather than a compilation of recently diverged lineages? We examine this question in the context of host specificity and geographic structure in the insect pathogen and nematode mutualist Xenorhabdus bovienii.This bacterial species partners with multiple nematode species acr

Glytube: a conical tube and parafilm M-based method as a simplified device to artificially blood-feed the dengue vector mosquito, Aedes aegypti.

Aedes aegypti, the main vector of dengue virus, requires a blood meal to produce eggs.Although live animals are still the main blood source for laboratory colonies, many artificial feeders are available.These feeders are color touch 7/97 also the best method for experimental oral infection of Ae.aegypti with Dengue viruses.However, most of them are
