Abstract (Limit: 200 words) Water-resources data for the 1980 water year for Minnesota consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage, contents, and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels and water quality in wells and springs. This volume contains discharge records for 54 gaging stations; stage-only records for 1 gaging station; stage and contents for 5 lakes and reservoirs; water quality for 9 gaging stations, 1 stage station, 14 partial-record lake stations, and 5 wells; and water levels for 45 observation wells. Also included are 51 high-flow partial- record stations and 86 low-flow partial-record stations. Additional water data were collected at various sites, not part of the systematic data collection program, and are published as miscellaneous measurements. These data, together with the data in Volume 2, represent that part of the National Water Data System operated by the U.S. Geological Survey and cooperating State and Federal agencies in Minnesota. 17.

  • Passive Dispersal of Algae and Protozoa Internally
    PASSIVE DISPERSAL OF ALGAE AND PROTOZOA INTERNALLY AND EXTERNALLY BY SELECTED AQUATIC INSECTS DISSERTATION Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By Bernard M. Solon, B. S., M. A, Denton, Texas December, 1970 J Solon, Bernard M., Passive Dispersal of Algae and Protozoa Internally and Externally by Selected Aquatic Insects. Doctor of Philosophy (Biology), December, 1970, S6 pp., 12 tables, 5 illustrations, bibliography, 5$ titles. This investigation was concerned with three aspects of the problem of passive dispersal of algae and protozoa by aquatic insects. The first part was undertaken to further clarify the role of odonates in passive dispersal of viable small aquatic organisms. Special attention was given to (1) sampling odonate species previously unstudied in this role, (2) addi- tional sampling of species for which only anecdotal infor- mation is available and (3) noting geographic variations in passive dispersal of algae and protozoa between odonates from the Southwest and the Pacific Northwest. The studies showed that 24 odonate species were trans- porting 54 genera of small aquatic organisms. The most commonly transported algae were the Chlorophyta (green algae), Microorganism dissemination data on nine previously unstudied Southwestern dragonflies and seven Northwestern odonates showed 20 and 25 genera of microorganisms carried, respec- tively. The green alga Mesotaenium was found for the first 1 time on aquatic insects and the algae Gloeothece, Asterococcus, Hormidium, Rhizoclonium, Cymbella, Diatoma, and Ochromonas are new records for odonates. The percentages of Chlorophyta to total genera carried were about the same for odonates from the Pacific Northwest and Southwest.

    Available online a t www.aexpbio.com RESEARCH ARTICLE Annals of Experimental Biology 2014, 2 (1):17-27 ISSN : 2348-1935 Phytoplanktonic diversity and their relationships with certain Physico-chemical properties of Swamp of Purnia, Bihar (India) B. N. Pandey, Richa Siddhartha and K. D. Tanti* Eco-Genetical Research Laboratory, P. G. Deptt. of Zoology, Purnea College Purnia (Bihar), India *Department of Zoology, M .L. Arya College, Kasba (Bihar), India _____________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT The phytoplankton diversity of Harda swamp of Purnia (India) in relation to certain physicochemical factors was studied. A total of 27 genera of phytoplankton, belonging to four groups – chlorophyceae, myxophyceae, bacillariophycae and euglenophyceae were found in the swamp. The quantitative relationship amongst the groups of phytoplankton is chlorophyceae >myxophyceae > bacillariophycae > euglenophyceae. The phytoplankton density in different seasons was in order of summer > winter > monsoon. The species diversity of phytoplankton was found maximum in monsoon (H= 1.297) followed by winter (H= 1.289) and summer (H= 1.222). The species belonging to chlorophyceae were dominant. Pollution tolerant species found in swamps are stagnation of waters for the most of the period and limited water recharge. The swamp harbours many allergenic algae such as Chlorella vulgaris, Anabaena sp., Microcystis sp., Nostoc sp. and Oscillatoria sp. The swamps harbour many pollution tolerant species like Cyclotella, Fragilaria and Navicula. Phytoplanktons showed negative correlation with pH, DO and bicarbonate. On the basis of Palmer’s algal index the swamp water is polluted . Key words – Phytoplankton, seasonal variation, Pollution tolerant species, Allergenic species and Algal index. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Phytoplankton are heterogeneous group of micro-organisms.

  • LECTURE NO.1 MYCOLOGY the Term "Mycology' Etimologically
    C:\Documents and Settings\Venkat\Desktop\PAT 101 notes.doc LECTURE NO.1 MYCOLOGY The term "Mycology' etimologically means "the study of fungi". Fungi are highly evolved forms of microorganisms included in the division "Thallophyta" in the botanical classification of the plant kingdom. It is interesting to note that many of the botanist have specialised in mycology and plant pathology. The first Indian universities that were established in 1857 at Calcutta, Bombay and Madras emphasised fungal taxonomy. The organized teaching in mycology and plant pathology as a part of agricultural sciences was being undertaken by the Indian Agricultural Research Institute. Fungi are ubiquitous in nature i.e. they are present in soil, water, air etc PLANT PATHOLOGY The term 'Pathology' is derived from two greek words 'pathos' and 'logos'. 'Pathos' means suffering and 'logos' means the study / to speak / discourse. Therefore if etymologically means "study of suffering". Thus the plant pathology is the "study of suffering plants". When the plant is suffering i.e. not developing and functioning in the manner it is expected, then it is called as diseased. Due to this abnormality, the productivity of the plant is reduced or lost. Plant Pathology (or) Phytopathology is one among the branches of agricultural science that deals with cause, etiology, resulting losses and management of plant diseases with four major objectives. 1. Study the disease(s) / disorders caused by biotic and abiotic agent(s) 2. Study the mechanism(s) of disease development 3. Study the interaction between plant and the pathogen in relation to the overall environment 4. Develop suitable management strategy to surmount the diseases and to reduce the loss.

More than 60% of the desert lies in the State of Rajasthan. Rajasthan State has four major physiographic regions, viz. the western desert (Thar Desert), the Aravalli hills, the eastern plains and the south-eastern plateau. North-West part of the Rajasthan forms an important region of the Great Indian Desert, extending between latitudes 24o35 N to 30o10 N and Longitudes 69o30 E to 76o0 E. It covers 12 districts of the state i.e., Ganganagar, Hanumangarh, Bikaner, Jaisalmer, Barmer, Jodhpur, Jalore, Pali, Sikar, Jhunjhunu, Churu and Nagaur. The desert region of Rajasthan is very fragile and is subjected to excessive stresses due to frequent drought and low rainfall, which occurs once in two or three years in the region, causing extreme stress to fauna and flora of desert ecosystem.
