Resumen

Entomological studies were conducted in Tanga region, Tanzania. over a two year period, to assess the effect of various environmental features and larval population density on the productivity of An. gambiae s.l. breeding sites for adult mosquitoes. These studies included: (i) Nineteen rounds of systematic dipping for larvae in about 150 mapped potential breeding sites around two villages. During this time records were kept for each potential breeding site of the dominant plants, suspended mud, odour, shade, depth, speed of water-flow, nature of margin, surface particles, and other features.

Resumen

Disturbance at key areas used by wolves may have negative impacts on population dynamics and species recovery, becoming particularly critical in regions with high human activity, such as the Iberian Peninsula. This study evaluated the sources of human-related disturbances and ecological features in the Iberian wolf key areas, including feeding sites, highway crossing structures and, more exhaustively, breeding sites, using available data from camera trapping obtained in two areas within wolf range in Portugal. Differences at spatial and temporal level were observed in the use of these areas by

Resumen

Avian malaria is a devastating disease that has decimated numerous bird species. This study sought to identify the vectors of avian malaria at four central Virginia Prothonotary warbler breeding sites. Twenty one thousand mosquitoes were collected and Culex salinarius, Cx. erraticus, and Cx. pipiens/restuans were found to be the dominant species at these sites. Geographic factors, such as crop land and forest type, were determined to be potential indicators for species abundance variation between sites. Of the mosquitoes collected, ninety one (0.4%) were identified as blood fed. The blood

Resumen

Wood ducks are thought to depend on mature hardwood forests juxtaposed with palustrine wetlands but these habitats have been continuously degraded or destroyed since European settlement. Wood ducks are adaptable and the use of marginal habitats and nest boxes has extended their range and probably was important to the recovery of wood duck populations. Until now no study has analyzed the contribution of upland nesting to local population growth and maintenance.

Resumen

This thesis examines how extrinsic and intrinsic factors affect dispersal, foraging, aggression and energy reserves in a winter population of a small, migratory flocking bird, the Snow Bunting Plectrophenax nivalis. Previous observations of this species, and consideration of its northern ground-feeding open country niche, suggested that Snow Buntings were less likely to show as strong a degree of site fidelity as many other winter-studied species. This may therefore have led to opportunities for the Snow Bunting's winter behavioural ecology to diverge from that of more sedentary species. The d

Resumen

In this Master of Arts Thesis in Anthropology I examine the controversy in the Okanagan Valley over the introduction of GM seed technologies into local agricultural processes. I explore via a multi-sited ethnography how local fruit farmers in this region view GM seed technologies and their perception of how these technologies will impact their farming practices. I argue that (a) the use of GM seeds as currently regulated in Canada threatens to erode farmers' local knowledge of plant breeding and that (b) this erosion is of consequence not only to local farmers but to society generally because

Resumen

The ecological importance of introduced mammalian predators is well acknowledged in New Zealand, however, little research has focused on the ecology of native avian predators and their role in communities. This study investigated the ecology of moreporks (Ninox novaeseelandiae) on Ponui Island, Hauraki Gulf, New Zealand between August 2007 and April 2008. The primary aim was to investigate the functional response of moreporks to availability of their prey. The contents of regurgitated morepork pellets were compared with relative abundance of prey taxa (invertebrates, small birds and rodents) o

Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2000.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: A thesis undertaken to quantify genotype-by-environment interaction within Eucalyptus grandis clones growing in the eastern portion of South Africa. Thirty one sites were selected to represent the "traditional" E. grandis growing areas of South Africa. Eleven common macro- site variables and twelve common micro- site soil variables were recorded at each site. Twenty seven E. grandis clones and four E. grandis hybrid clones were then evaluated over these 31 sites. An incomplete latin square design was used to evaluate the

Resumen

La Fièvre de la Vallée du Rift (FVR) est une zoonose observée pour la première fois au Kenya en 1930 qui s'est peu à peu propagée à la plupart des pays d'Afrique. La FVR est une maladie à transmission vectorielle dont le virus appartient au genre Phlebovirus de la famille des Bunyaviridæ. En Afrique de l'Est, l'émergence de foyers est prédite par des modèles statistiques, ce qui n'est pas le cas en Afrique de l'Ouest où les facteurs et les mécanismes en jeu sont encore mal définis. L'objectif de cette thèse est d'identifier les facteurs et les processus épidémiologiques expliquant l'émergence

Resumen

Assessment of trophic interactions between increasing populations of New Zealand fur seals (Arctocephalus forsteri) and fisheries in southern Australia is limited due to a lack of species specific demographic data and an understanding of the factors influencing population growth. To establish species specific demographic parameters a cross-sectional sample of New Zealand fur seal females (330) and males (100) were caught and individually-marked on Kangaroo Island, South Australia between 2000 and 2003. The seals were aged through examination of a postcanine tooth, which was removed from each a

碩士<br>國立中山大學<br>生物科學系研究所<br>94<br>Abstract During summer, May to September, of 2005, I examined nest-site selection and breeding ecology in a mixed-species colony of Roseate Terns (Sterna dougallii), Bridled Terns (Sterna anaethetus) and Black-naped (Sterna sumatrana) Terns on the islet of Jishan, Penghu, Taiwan. The aims are to identify characteristic differences of nest sites within the habitats, and to compare nest-site preferences of early- and late-nesting Roseate Terns. Significant interspecific differrences in nesting sites were found: Roseate Terns nested in areas with short vegetat

Resumen

M. Tech. Agriculture<br>Mungbean (Vigna radiata L. Wilczek) is becoming a food security crop in Africa, especially in South Africa where there is a growing Asian population. To promote its production by farmers, 15 elite mungbean varieties were evaluated for plant growth, symbiotic N (nitrogen) nutrition and grain yield at Nelspruit and Kliplaatdrift in Mpumalanga Province, South Africa. Genotypes VC6486-10-S1 and VC6493-44-1 at Nelspruit, and VC6510-151-1, VC1973A and VC3960-88 at Kliplaatdrift showed better growth and fixed significantly more symbiotic N than the other genotypes.
