The present experiment was made to analyze seasonal performance with a comparison shelf verses shoot rearing of bivoltine hybrid varieties viz. (single breed CSR2XCSR4, and double breed CSR6xCSR26XCSR2xCSR27) of Bombyx mori L. to check their adaptability and rearing performance in the climatic conditions of Khammam district. The result shows that the overall performance in three seasons’ i.e. rainy (Aug-Sep), winter (Nov-Dec) and summer (Feb-Mar), double breed shows better adaptation in Khammam district and in rearing Shoot rearing method shows better result in comparison to shelf method of rearing.<#LINE#>Reddy, B.

Science College, Vallabh Vidyanagar, Anand, Gujarat, India<#LINE#>26/4/2021<#LINE#>20/7/2021<#LINE#>Crocodylus palustris is distributed throughout Indian subcontinent. Wetlands of Charotar region possess healthy population of marsh crocodiles which are also being utilized by humans. As a result, peaceful coexistence can be seen in the villages of Charotar where villagers are living in the harmony with mugger crocodiles. Understanding the feeding preference and prey base of the threatened species like crocodiles plays a vital role in wildlife conservation for the well-being of wild animals as well as people who share the place with thems. This study was initiated to understand prey base as well as prey preference of the Marsh crocodile by non-invasive method which is scat analysis. Fieldwork was carried out from March 2018 to March 2020. Total 556 faecal samples were taken and identified by direct (presence of animal) and indirect (pug mark and body scale mark) signs as well as with the help of local people from four villages of Anand district. Undigested materials from the scat such as mammalian hair, feathers of the birds, insect remains and scales of fish mounted on slides, observed under microscope and characterized with the help of reference keys. The present study provides details of the food habits of adult and sub-adult crocodiles as well as effects of seasonal changes on the food habit of the animal. Moreover, this study also provides a general picture of predator-prey relationship which is one of the important inter species interactions.<#LINE#>Kumar, V.V., Chaudhury, B.C. and Soni, V.C.

Dibang Valley District of Arunachal Pradesh state has a wide range of forest types, elevation and environmental conditions that provide an ideal habitat for gliders and arboreals. However, the existing knowledge about these lesser-known species in this region is very limited, and therefore this study aims to understand the current conservation status of six squirrels’ species, viz. Callosciurus pygerythrus, Dremomys lokriah, Callosciurus erythraeus, Tamiops macclellandi, Hylopetes alboniger, and Petaurista mishmiensis. We approached the indigenous Idu Community who predominantly resides at the Dibang Valley District and conducted a semi-structured questionnaire survey to evaluate their Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) about these species. The outcome of the survey highlights serious concern of anthropogenic factors for the diminishing population of the gliders and arboreals in the region.  Wild hunting, accelerated developmental activities, fragmented habitat, over-harvesting of non-timber forest products (NTFP) and timber logging are the major threats for the population decline. Possible conversation programs in this area should include long-term activities such as community-based conservation-friendly initiatives, sensitization through awareness programs, alternative livelihood options, and sustainable developmental programs.<#LINE#>Krishna M.C., Kumar A., Tripathi O.P. and Koprowski J.L.

The findings indicate that various pesticides are commonly used in cropland to increase yield. Pesticides were used by farmers to prevent and manage insects, pests and diseases in their field crops. Pesticides used extensively and excessively poisoned the aquatic ecosystem (wetlands) and harmed aquatic species in their health and reproduction. Lack of knowledge about pesticides, their use, and toxicity was recognized to a lack of education and awareness. As a result, farmers' has no a vast knowledge about pesticide using patterns in the adjacent area of wetlands that must be improved. In the above research area, the current study could aid in the development of strategies for preventing pesticide hazards and raising farmer awareness of environmental concerns, including health impacts on aquatic species.<#LINE#>Hasanuzzaman, M., Rahman M.

The present study was conducted with 20 healthy control subjects with no history of smoking habits and other oral complications. The subjects were recruited from Chettinad Dental College and Research Institute (CDCRI) with the study protocol's approval from Institutional Human Ethics Committee (392/IHEC/10-17). Their age of the subjects was ranged between 30-45 years. Approximately 5 ml of human saliva was collected in a fresh tube with informed consent from healthy controls by informing the current research study by the donors. Genomic DNA was prepared from human saliva sample by ammonium acetate method. The quantification process was determined by a UV-visible spectrophotometer (UV-1800 Shimadzu spectrophotometer) to determine the purity and concentration of DNA. The average concentration of DNA from a saliva sample was found at1.48mg/ml.<#LINE#>Saferstein, R. (2013).@Criminalistics.@Pearson Education.@Yes$Graham, M. H.

First tested on a case-study in Brazil, our aim is to propose an adaptation for testing and potential application in different sites and conditions. A brief review of the literature around ecological well-being, the permaculture ethics and design principles and the consecrated MESMIS methodology is presented in order to clarify the Permaculture MESMIS methodology and its applicability. In order to build upon the Permaculture MESMIS methodology, six steps were executed. The applicability of this methodology is explored at different stages, aiming to understand people's ecological well-being before and after the adoption of permaculture as a way of life. Different ways of applying such a methodology, as well as how to present its results, are also suggested.<#LINE#>Krebs, J., & Bach, S.

<#LINE#>Review on feeding and reproductive biology of two spot barb (Pethia ticto) (Hamilton, 1822)<#LINE#>Sandipan @Gupta <#LINE#>58-63<#LINE#>10.ISCA-IRJBS-2021-003.pdf<#LINE#>Department of Industrial Fish and Fisheries, Brahmananda Keshab Chandra College, Kolkata, India<#LINE#>6/1/2021<#LINE#>7/7/2021<#LINE#>Pethia ticto, commonly known as two spot barb is a common cyprinid species of many Asian countries like Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Thailand. This fish species is euryhaline in nature and inhabits rivers, streams, pools, ponds, lakes, reservoirs etc. Due to the presence of high nutritional value, along with other important small indigenous fish species it has been considered as a source of nutrition for the poor people. It is popular as ornamental species too and its potential as mosquito bio-control agent has also been documented. Though this fish species has been recorded as Least Concerned species in IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, with increased pressure on its population due to over fishing and other anthropogenic factors, declined population of P. ticto has already been documented from India and Bangladesh. In Bangladesh, it has been enlisted as vulnerable while in India it has been documented as Lower Risk near Threatened species. Thus, considering this situation, population of P. ticto needs utmost measures for conservation. Conservation of any fish species needs proper knowledge on its feeding and reproductive biology. The present review has been aimed to consolidate the already documented information on feeding and reproductive biology of P. ticto and to point out the lacunae as well as the further scope of research to promote its in-situ conservation as well as fishery.<#LINE#>Hossain, M.Y., Rahman, M.M. and Abdallah, E.M.
