Diet Selection: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Foraging Behaviour
ISBN: 9780632035595 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. All animals feed selectively. This book examines the selectivity of feeding from a variety of viewpoints. It examines the viewpoint of the behavioural ecologist that considers decision rules, the dietitian that looks at nutritional problems, and the community ecologist that sees feeding as a factor influencing species diversity. The text brings these diverse disciplines together to produce a coherent view of the way in which organisms 'choose' their diet.
Optimal foraging theory has brought the study of foraging behaviour, particularly diet selection to a point where physiological,... All animals feed selectively. This book examines the selectivity of feeding from a variety of viewpoints. It examines the viewpoint of the behavioural...

A Colour Atlas of Plant Propagation and Conservation
ISBN: 9781874545927 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. While scientific and socio-political communities around the world are aware of the natural and economic importance of biodiversity, we are faced with an ever-increasing number of plant species under threat of extinction. Conservation is thus a vital part of the plant scientist's work, in the field, in botanic gardens and in universities.
This colour atlas has been conceived to integrate the dual botanical themes of plant propagation and conservation. Various texts deal with propagation, in vivo and in vitro, and with aspects of conservation, but none marries the two themes, let...

ISBN: 9780123745934 / Angielski / Twarda / 526 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Handbook of Mammalian Vocalization is designed as a broad and comprehensive, but well-balanced book, written from the neuroscience point of view in the broad sense of this term. This well-illustrated Handbook pays particular attention to systematically organized details but also to the explanatory style of the text and internal cohesiveness of the content, so the successive chapters gradually develop a consistent story without losing the inherent complexity. Studies from many species are included, however rodents dominate, as most of the brain investigations were done on these...

An Exposure and Effect Assessment of Insecticides in an Estuary
ISBN: 9783838108469 / Angielski / Miękka / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The research described by the author was designed to yield information on the impact of particle-bound pesticide on organisms living in the interface between sediment and water column in a temporarily open estuary in South Africa. It was hypothesized that natural variables such as salinity and temperature and anthropogenic stressors such as particle-bound pesticides contribute to the variability of the system. A multiple line of evidence approach is necessary due to the variability in sediment type, contaminant distribution and spatial and temporal variability within the ecosystem in...

On the Classification and Geographical Distribution of the Mammalia
ISBN: 9781108001984 / Angielski / Miękka / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. English anatomist and biologist Richard Owen (1804 92), who in 1842 coined the word 'dinosaur', published this book in 1859, the year of On the Origin of Species. He reviews ancient and recent studies of mammals in Western science before going on to present his own updated categorisation of the class. Owen's eye for detail and range of scholarship are evident in this work, which is an extensive catalogue of mammals based on biological, geographical and anatomical characteristics. It incorporates, among other things, detailed classifications and sub-classifications of genus based on dental...

Chlorfluazuron and embryonic development of Spodoptera litura
ISBN: 9783639169553 / Angielski / Miękka / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Chlorfluazuron was applied topically to newly
moulted fifth-instars, a significant reduction in both number of eggs laid and subsequent hatching was observed after mating. Number of unfertilized eggs was greater than those were fertilized, but significantly more unfertilized eggs laid by treated insects. Interference by chlorfluazuron, transferred by copulation through sperm fluids or ova, appeared improbable. Injection of haemolymph of moths resulted in increased in oviposition within first 24 h. Two factors were involved in activation of ovipositon: OSF-I was found in virgin... Chlorfluazuron was applied topically to newly

Mechanism of delayed embryonic development in Cynopterus sphinx
ISBN: 9783639180718 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The study was undertaken to investigate the phenomenon of delayed embryonic development in the fruit bat Cynopterus sphinx. The study showed for the first time the slowed embryonic development in this species during gastrulation stage. The period of delayed development showed a relatively low circulating progesterone concentration due to decline in the corpus luteum function. Exogenous progesterone treatment however, failed to accelerate embryonic growth. The result of this study showed for the first time that the period of retarded embryonic development in C. sphinx coincides with...

Bionomic Field Studies and Integrated Pest Management of Thrips
ISBN: 9783639185164 / Angielski / Miękka / 92 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Onion and cotton have remarkable positions in the global agro-economy. These crops are threatened by various arthropod pests including thrips. The growers' community of the world is mostly relying on chemicals to minimize the damage done by thrips. This not only increases the worries of the environmental entomologists but also wipes out the organic farming concept in agriculture. We tried to control onion thrips by using eccentric methods, like cultural control and botanical insecticides. This book provides a step-by-step, hands-on model of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) of onion thrips,...

Pseudorasbora parva, eine allochthone Art, die ursprunglich in Ostasien beheimatet ist, wurde aufgrund ihrer dokumentierten Verbreitung in mittlerweile uber 20 Landern Europas sowie der schwierigen systematischen Zuordnung mehrfach unter verschiedenen Aspekten untersucht. Eine hohe Toleranz gegenuber unterschiedlichen Temperaturen, Substratbeschaffenheit und Nahrungsangebot ermoglichte die erfolgreiche Etablierung des Blaubandbarblings in diversen Lebensraumen, wodurch dieser kleine Schwarmfisch seit den 1980er Jahren zu einem fixen Bestandteil der europaischen Ichthyofauna geworden ist....

Movement patterns of the West Coast rock lobster, Jasus lalandii
ISBN: 9783639155075 / Angielski / Miękka / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since the early 1990s the commercial catch of rock lobster on the West Coast of South Africa has progressively decreased with a concomitant influx of lobsters into an area not previously associated with dense lobster populations, east of Cape Hangklip. It has been hypothesized that the major shift in rock lobsters eastwards could be as a result of large-scale, longshore migrations. This study aimed to investigate the movement patterns of the South African West Coast rock lobster, Jasus lalandii, using a variety of techniques. These were (1) examining long-term data from an...
