STUDY OF MORPHOLOGICAL AND YIELD ATRIBUTING CHARACTERS IN INDIGENOUS RICE (OR...Vipin Pandey
The present study was carried out to study ninety four rice accessions, along with checks, on the basis of sixteen
qualitative and twenty quantitative characters. Analysis of variance for quantitative characters showed differences for
different characters. High coefficient of variation in the entire genotypes was observed for grain yield per plant (27.4 %),
number of effective tillers per plant (22.37 %), test weight (21.14 %) and kernel length breadth ratio (20.59 %).
Correlation analysis revealed positive and highly significant correlation of total number of filled grains per panicle, total
number of grains per panicle, plant height and number of effective tiller per plant; harvest index, test weight, flag leaf
length and days to maturity had positive highly significant correlation with grain yield per plant. Principal Component
Analysis revealed, out of 20, only seven principal components (PCs) exhibited more than 1.00 eigen value, and showed
about 77.42 % variability among the traits studied. So, these 7 PCs were given due importance for further explanation.
Component matrix revealed that the PC1 was mostly related to quality characters while PC2, PC3, PC4, PC5, PC6 and
PC7 mostly associated with yield related traits. Cluster analysis performed by UPGMA method using Euclidean distance
as dissimilarity measure divided the 97 genotypes of rice into ten clusters. The cluster III constituted of 48 genotypes,
forming the largest cluster followed by cluster VI (22 genotypes), cluster V (10 genotypes), cluster II (5 genotypes) and
cluster VIII (4 genotypes), cluster I, IV and VII (two genotypes each), cluster IX and X had (only one genotypes each).
Quality analysis performed for 97 rice genotypes revealed wide range of genetic variability for most of the quality traits.

Rice (Oryza sativa L. 2n = 2x = 24) is a staple food for over half of the world's populationproviding 43% of calorie. Rice yield has experienced many fold jumps since the 1950s. This happened primarily as the result of genetic improvement and increasing harvest index by reducing plant height using the semi-dwarf genes and utilization of heterosis by producing hybrids. Heterosis is the improved or increased function of any biological quality in a hybrid offspring. An offspring exhibits heterosis if its traits are enhanced as a result of mixing the genetic contributions of its parents. Genetic basis of heterosis included overdominance, dominance, and additive effects.

Ecobiology of the Common Pierrot Castalius rosimon (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: ...Dr Palem Harinath Reddy
In the environs of Lankamalai region (14°45' - 14°72' N and 79°07' - 78°80' E), the common pierrot
Castalius rosimon (Fabricius) lays eggs singly on Zizyphus jujuba. The butterfly available thought the year
with high frequency during September to November (post monsoon season). Enumeration of eggs, larvae and
pupae on the host plants in the field and flight observation of adults on wings attest this seasonality. The life
cycle from egg to adult emergence was relatively short spanning over 21-25 days. Success development of
adults, larvae and pupae was 90-100 % during the said period. Short life cycle and high success development
of life stages suggest the production of 12-13 broods in the year. The larvae pass through four instars and the
nutritional indices across the instars mostly the ground flora with sugar concentrations ranging between
28-52% either with sucrose of glucose dominance. Nutritional indices Consumption index (CI) and Growth rate
(GR) increase as the larvae aged, while approximate digestibility (AD) decreases, efficiency of conversion of
digested food (ECD) and efficiency of conversion of ingested food (ECI) are inversely related as age increased.

ECOBIOLOGY OF THE COMMON BANDED AWL HASORA CHROMUS(CRAMER)(LEPIDOPTERA: RHOPA...Dr Palem Harinath Reddy
The Common Banded Awl, Hasora chromus is univalent and seasonal and endangered in Southern Andhra Pradesh. It was on wing from April to Nov and breeds almost with high frequency during the periods of monsoon and post monsoon seasons. The development from egg to adult was 18 – 24 days. There was no dormant stage in the life history. Success development of egg, larvae and pupae was 50 - 90 %, 50 – 80 % and 50 - 80 % during the said period. Short life cycle and high success development of life stages suggest the production of 8 - 9 broods in the season. Nutritional indices growth rate (GR), consumption index (CI) and approximate digestibility(AD) decreased as the larvae aged, while those of efficiency of conversion of digested food (ECD) and efficiency of conversion of ingested food (ECI) were increased.

Importance of study of immature stages of insects in agricultureSanju Thorat
The type of life cycle will vary with the insect-pest. However, most pests have certain weak points during their life cycle when they are the most vulnerable to manage. Some insect are predators, either as larvae or in both larval and adult stages. The decomposition of organic waste, such as dung and manures are an important ecosystem process which is largely provided by insects. Insect as food for animals and human being. The knowledge regarding immature stages of insect-pests and understand site of oviposition, site of pupation and larval behaviour can allow for timely and effective management, thus we can reduction in the qualitative and quantitative losses of yield and increase the profit.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

2. Importance of bees
• For pollination of crops and wild
plants
• Source of food & medicine
• To preserve nature
• For added income to the family
• As a hobby
27/27/2016 7:04 PM
3. 1
Pollinators = Food
At least 1/3
At least 1/3 of the world's agricultural crops depends
upon pollination provided by insects and other animals
23. STATUS OF SMALL HIVE BEETLE
(SHB) IN APIARIES
Cleofas R. Cervancia
Aimee Lynn B. Dupo
Elmer Polintan
Anna Locsin
24. MAJOR, MAJOR PROBLEM
• Incursion of small hive beetle, Aethina
tumida Murray
• Reported – June, 2014
• Identification based on the specimens
collected by Epifanio Loyola
• Initial assessment Nov. 26-29, 2014
present in Lupon and Gen San
absent in one apiary in Bukidnon
25. Life Cycle of the shb
Eggs are white in color (c). They are deposited in masses inside sealed brood by making a
small hole on the cell capping or through the cell wall (d). Generally, a comb is not required for
egg-laying. Females can also lay eggs in crevices, e.g. underneath queen cell cups (e) used in
queen production. The egg incubation period takes about 2 to 3 days. (de Guzman et al2013)
26. Larval stage (de Guzman et al 2013)
• Creamy in color
• With 2 rows of spines at posterior end
• Most damaging stage
• 4 instars (first 3 most damaging)
• Last instar “wandering phase, leave hive, barrow soil (5-10 days)
• pupate just below the surface of the soil
27. Pupal Stage (Image by De Guzman et. al, 2013, ars.usda.gov)
The white beetle pupae (g) take 5 to 11 days to develop and
become young adults. These young adults are very fragile; thus,
they remain inside the cells for another 5 to 9 days to mature.
About 75% of the beetles’ developmental time is spent in the soil
as larvae (h), pupae (i) and then as young adults (j).
28. Adult Stage (Image by De Guzman et. al, 2013,
ars.usda.gov)
When mature adults emerge from the soil (23 or 39 days), they are maroon in color but will turn darker as they
age. They are about 1/3 the size of a worker bee (k). An easy way to identify SHB adults is their clubbed
antennae (l) and sinuated margin of the thorax (m) and shortened elytra (n), which are the hard wing coverings
of adult beetles
51. CEBU

59. HOW TO MANAGE SHB INFESTATION
Maintain strong colony
60. Maintain strong colonies- Frames should be covered with
bees. Weak colonies are prone to SHB infestation . Empty or
unattended frames can serve as hiding places for SHB.
