The Binturong (Arctictis binturong), also known as the Asian Bearcat, the Palawan Bearcat, or simply the Bearcat, is a species of the family Viverridae, which includes the civets and genets. It is neither a bear nor a cat, and the real meaning of the original name has been lost, as the local language that gave it that name is now extinct. Its natural habitat is in trees of forest canopy in rainforest of Bangladesh, Bhutan, Burma, China, India, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Nepal, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam.

Scarcity of water, mineral deficiency, high irradiance and high temperature constitute stress conditions, all of which together prevail in Sanjay van, a tropical dry deciduous forest semi-arid region of southeast Rajasthan, India. Butea monosperma (Flame of the forest) is the most widespread, naturally growing endemic dominant tree of this region along with a few other less abundant woody species. The work has demonstrated that how the dominant tree, B. monosperma flourishes in such conditions by developing traits well suited for adaptation as witnessed specially by its photosynthetic performance, phosphorus acquisition efficiency and the V-ATPase and V-PPase activities.

Lymphatic filariasis (LF) is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical countries and targeted by the WHO for elimination as a public health problem by the year 2020. About 128 million people living in 78 endemic countries are infected with LF, primarily by W. bancrofti and to a lesser extent, by B. malayi and B. timori. Of the three physiological races of W. bancrofti, nocturnally periodic and the diurnally subperiodic physiological races are prevalent in India. While the nocturnal form transmitted by Cx. quinquefasciatus is prevalent in other parts of India, the diurnal form is prevalent only in the Nicobar group of Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Research on diurnally subperiodic form of filariasis commenced from the early forties,...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Biofortification is a method of breeding crops to increase their nutritional value. This can be done either through conventional selective breeding, or through genetic engineering. Biofortification differs from ordinary fortification because it focuses on making plant foods more nutritious as the plants are growing, rather than having nutrients added to the foods when they are being processed. This is an improvement on ordinary fortification when it comes to providing nutrients for the rural poor, who rarely have access to commercially fortified foods. As such, biofortification is seen as an upcoming strategy for dealing with deficiencies of micronutrients in the developing world.

Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc. is a facultative parasite of tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. It incites diseases in several crop plants as well as on wild hosts. Loss in crop yield occurs due to infection at seedling stage. The fungus survives as sclerotia that can resist extremely low to high temperatures. This is the reason that this soil- borne pathogen is difficult to control. The sexual stage (athelial stage) is rarely formed in vitro and has not been reported from nature. We have described here several aspects of biology and control of S. rolfsii based mostly on the work done in our laboratory. Work on variability, secondary metabolites of ooze, mycelia, athelial stage formation and control of S. roflsii through induced...

Clam fishery along the west coast of India yields about 1500 tonnes of clam meat annually. Clam meat is nutritious and is a cheap source of protein rich sea – food. The venerid clam, Paphia malabarica, known as "false clam or short neck clam" contributes 80-90% of total clam export of India. Though it has such a tremendous demand in export, these clams are fished on a subsistence level on the west coast of India. Clam culture is gaining popularity as a supplementary seafood production technology. Traditionally, the clams are kept in pits, with stocking density 1000 to 1500 nos./sq.m by the local people for a short period of 8 to 10 days at Shirgaon, Ratnagiri in the intertidal regions of Kalbadevi and Mirya estuaries. However, the pits...

Spider mites belonging to the family Tetranychidae are major agricultural pests that often cause sever damage to a wide range of vegetables,and ornamental plants in greenhouses and outdoors and several other agricultural crops.The two spotted spider mite is considered to be the most dangerous species of this family.It is difficult to manage this group of mite pests by chemical compounds because a kind of resistance can be developed within a few years. Therefore,it was necessary to develop some other control tactics such the use of biological control agents.Predatory mites especially the mesostigmatid mites are considered to be among the most promising bioagent of spider mites.Also,species belonging to the prostigmated mites of the family...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Biological control is a method of controlling pests (including insects, mites, weeds and plant diseases) using other living organisms. It relies on predation, parasitism, herbivory, or other natural mechanisms, but typically also involves an active human management role. It can be an important component of integrated pest management (IPM) programs. There are three basic types of biological pest control strategies: importation (sometimes called classical biological control), augmentation and conservation.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Biological control programs for gorse in New Zealand have existed since the introduction of the gorse seed weevil (Exapion ulicis) in 1928. Biological pest control is the use of natural mechanisms such as predation to limit the growth and prevalence of a pest. The early research into the biological control of common gorse in New Zealand was among the first of such programs worldwide.

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, designed after conducting six different experiments in the agro-ecosystem of onion. The book can be referred as a pathway not only to the organic...
