  • Relative Importance of Propagule Size and Propagule Number for Establishment of Non-Indigenous Species: a Stochastic Simulation Study

    Relative Importance of Propagule Size and Propagule Number for Establishment of Non-Indigenous Species: a Stochastic Simulation Study

Martin Abstract Propagule pressure is emerging as the most consistent predictor of establishment in non-indigenous species. Increasing propagule size (the number of individuals arriving in a novel environment at one time) is thought to increase probability of establishment by counteracting demographic stochasticity and Allee effects. Increasing propagule number (the number of introduction events) is thought to increase probability of establishment by counteracting environmental stochasticity. However, the relative importance of these effects and the conditions under which one effect may become predominant is largely unexplored. We first used stochastic population simulations, with a constant number of immigrants distributed over varying numbers of introduction events, to determine the relative importance of propagule size and number on the probability of establishment.

Trophic categories in a mammal assemblage: diversity in an agricultural landscape. Biota Neotrop. May/Aug 2007 vol. 7, no. 2 http://www.biotaneotropica.org.br/v7n2/pt/abstract?short- communication+bn01207022007. ISSN 1676-0603. Mammals play an important role in the maintenance and regeneration of tropical forests since they have essential ecological functions and can be considered key-species in structuring biological communities. In landscapes with elevated anthropogenic pressure and high degree of fragmentation, species display distinct behavioral responses, generally related to dietary habits. The landscape of Passa-Cinco river basin, in the central- eastern region of São Paulo State, shows a high degree of anthropogenic disturbance, with sugar cane plantations, eucalyptus forests, native semideciduous forest remnants and pastures as the key habitat types in the region. We surveyed medium to large mammals in those habitats and determined species richness and relative abundance for each of the following trophic categories: Insectivore/Omnivores, Frugivore/Omnivores, Carnivores, Frugivore/ Herbivores and Herbivore/Grazers. Differences in species richness and relative abundance among habitats were tested using one-way analysis of variance, followed by Tukey test, considering 1) each of the trophic categories individually and 2) the set of categories together.

Contributing to interdisciplinary conversations, it provides an empirical case of how regulatory practices enact material realities. Using archival material, the study describes how estrogen was achieved, in part, through heterogeneous practices of the Canadian Committee on Pharmacopoeial Standards, National Health, and government solicitors. These regulators disagreed on whether, how, and by whom estrogens should be standardized. Rather than resolve these disagreements, Canada enacted multiple regulations purporting to standardize estrogen, and government solicitors practiced “techniques of validating” to render the regulations as lawful. I argue that these regulatory enactments materialized estrogen as a potent, unpredictable, and multiple object. Further, I show how estrogen spawned novel regulatory techniques in Canada, particularly the use of consumer product labels. In this way, estrogen catalyzed an early example of risk regulation in Canada.

    Glossary - Zoology - Intro

    1 Glossary - Zoology - Intro Abdomen: Posterior part of an arthropoda’ body; in vertebrates: abdomen between thorax and pelvic girdle. Acoelous: See coelom. Amixia: A restriction that prevents general intercrossing in a species leading to inbreeding. Anabiosis: Resuscitation after apparent death. Archenteron: See coelom. Aulotomy: Capacity of separating a limb; followed by regeneration; used also for asexual reproduction; see also fissipary (in echinodermata and platyhelminthes). Basal Lamina: Basal plate of developing neural tube; the noncellular, collagenous layer that separates an epithelium from an underlying layer of tissue; also basal membrane. Benthic: Organisms that live on ocean bottoms. Blastocoel: See coelom. Blastula: Stage of embryonic development, at / near the end of cleavage, preceding gastrulation; generally consisting of a hollow ball of cells (coeloblastula); if no blastoceol is present it is termed stereoblastulae (arise from isolecithal and moderately telolecithal ova); in meroblastic cleavage (only the upper part of the zygote is divided), the blastula consists of a disc of cells lying on top of the yolk mass; the blastocoel is reduced to the space separating the cells from the yolk mass. Blastoporus: The opening into the archenteron (the primitive gastric cavity of the gastrula = gastrocoel) developed by the invagination of the blastula = protostoma. Cephalisation: (Gk. kephale, little head) A type of animal body plan or organization in which one end contains a nerve-rich region and functions as a head. Cilium: (pl. cilia, long eyelash) A short, centriole-based, hairlike organelle: Rows of cilia propel certain protista. Cilia also aid the movement of substances across epithelial surfaces of animal cells. Cleavage: The zygote undergoes a series of rapid, synchronous mitotic divisions; results in a ball of many cells.

    On the Reticular Tissue and Lattice=Fibers Occurring in the Milk=Spots of Omentum

    On the Reticular Tissue and Lattice=fibers occurring in the Milk=spots of Omentum. By Dr. Yukio Hamazaki. From the Pathological Department of Okayama Medical College (Director: Prof. Oto Tam ura). 2 Figures (Plate III) and 3 Text Figures. Ranvier and Weide n reic h regarded the omentum as a flattened- out lymph gland and the abdominal cavity as its lymph sinus. The latter, furthermore, theoretically emphasized that the omentum is nothing but a sheet of reticular tissue, the "taches laiteuses" correspond- ing to the secondary nodules. Lately, Kiy ono agreed with the above view, though lie pointed out that the histiocytic cells in the milk-spots do not form reticular tissue, unlike those in the lymph glands. At the Fifteenth Pathological Congress of Japan (1925) I reported that the milk-spots in the rat, cattle, and pig are provided with a certain kind of reticular tissue. The purpose of the present paper is to settle this problem using specific stainings for the reticular fibers and for the lattice-fibers ("Gitterfasern" of v. Kupffer), which may be in an intiniate relation with them. Material and methods. The material was obtained from the cattle, pig , dog, cat, rabbit, guinea-pig, rat, mouse, chicken and human subject. As the control the organs containing reticular tissue, i. e., lymph glands , spleen and thymus gland were also examined. The material fixed with 10% solution of lormalin was studied as stretched specimens and as sections . For reticulum-staining the eosin-methyl blue method modified by the author was used: 1. Sections are stained for 30 minutes in 1% solution of eosin (a few drops of glacial acetic acid is added to 100 cc of the solution) .
