Attributes Of Royalty In The Primitively Eusocial Wasp Ropalidia marginata : Pheromone, Ovaries And Behavior
(2012-12-07)
This thesis has looked at the proximate mechanisms by which eusociality is maintained in colonies of the primitively eusocial wasp Ropalidia marginata. Unlike other typical primitively eusocial species, the R, marginata ...
Determinants Of Behavioural And Reproductive Dominance In The Primitively Eusocial Wasp Ropalidia Marginata
(2016-09-15)
In societies where all individuals are reproductively totipotent and yet, at a given time only one of them reproduces, it is interesting to examine the factor(s) that may influence and predict who will be the reproductive. ...
Studies On Endocrine And Behavioral Assessment Of Reproductive Status In Asian Elephants (Elephas Maximus)
(2013-01-16)
The Asian elephant (Elephas maximus), a charismatic ‘flagship species’, is threatened by extinction in the wild, and the development of self-sustainable captive populations is a key conservation challenge. A third of the ...
Molecular Approaches To understand Cellular Differentiation - A Study Using BeWo Choriocarcinoma Cells
(2010-05-24)
Cellular differentiation is a complex but fascinating process in all multicellular organisms. Differentiation can involve changes in numerous aspects of cell physiology; size, shape, polarity, metabolic activity, responsiveness ...
Cloning and Expression of a Diagnostic Antigen for Invasive Amoebiasis
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-29)
A crude extract of axenically grown amoebae was used as antigen in order to develop an AB microELISA for the detection and quantitation of E. histolytica-specific IgG antibodies. This ELISA was used to screen individual ...
