Abstract:

This research focuses on the political participation of women in Niger. In addition to the documentation on the subject, we conducted interviews with women and political party leaders. Thus, the quest for equality is more than ever a concern of Nigerian women. In this article we asked the following research question: how can we explain the contribution of the feminine gender to political development in Niger? The general objective pursued through this article is to analyze the contribution of women in political development in Niger. To answer the research question and check the general objecti

Demographic changes in an unexploited population of fox squirrels (Sciurus niger) were studied between 1971 and 1978 on 45.2 ha of upland forest in east-central Illinois.

Young-of-the-year made up <20% of the livetrapped population. Increasing populations were characterized by increases (P < 0.05) in numbers of yearling–adult males and young-of-the-year of both sexes.

Size-at-age models predicted that males and females reach asymptotic sizes of 178.2-189.0 cm SVL and 140.1-143.4 cm SVL, respectively.

Abstract:

A random sampling and cross sectional study was carried out in General Hospital, Minna, Niger State, Nigeria using parasitological techniques to screen faecal samples for Cystoisospora belli. Blood samples of participants were also screened to determine the CD4 counts of infected subjects while Body Mass Index of subjects was determined to describe their nutritional status. A total of 783 individuals consisting of 317 apparently healthy subjects and 466 HIV/AIDs patients were screened for cystoisosporiasis. Out of the 783 subjects screened, 81 (10.34%) were positive for Cystoisospora belli. Th

AbstractThe reproduction of Forficula senegalensis Serv. was studied in fields of bulrush millet (Pennisetum typhoides Burm.), 40 km south of Maradi, Niger. Flight activity, as determined by light trapping, follows a seasonal cycle in two phases: first the arrival of adults of the previous year in the fields at the onset of tillering; and second, the dispersal of adults of the new generation at the time of blooming and maturation of the plant, and their departure at harvest time. Females lay their eggs at the collar of the plants during tillering; hatching and nymphal dispersal occur soon afte

AbstractForested wetlands are in decline, as are many species that are obligate residents. Big Cypress fox squirrels (BCFS; Sciurus niger avicennia ) are a threatened endemic to wet pine and cypress forests in southwestern Florida. The region is characterized by development resulting in habitat loss, habitat fragmentation, and hydrological change that influence the quality of these wet forests. Through radiotelemetry and field observations, we examined the ecology and habitat use of BCFS in a natural cypress dome-pine forest mosaic. BCFS selected cypress domes for food and nests throughout the

The major prey type was Xenopus tropicalis, followed by Tilapia sp. and Clarias sp. Adult sex-ratio was 1:1.
