Abstract A sex-asymmetric downward shift in size-at-terminal-molt has recently occurred in males in some portions of the Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) snow crab stock range, a first known occurrence for such processes in snow crab (Chionoecetes opilio) stocks. This study examines plausible factors promoting the shift in size-at-terminal-molt [synonymous with size-at-maturity (SaM)] including individual size, temperature, population density, and sex ratio. Analyses highlight expanse of cold water and large male density as being significant predictors of molt-type outcomes. A confluence of cold conditions and low density of large males promoted the SaM shift. In turn, the low male density was associated with recently elevated fishery exploitation rates under quota-controlled management. It remains unknown the extent to which the reduction in terminal size reflects a phenotypic vs. genotypic process. Factors affecting skip-molting in male snow crab are investigated, and we find that skip-molting occurs most frequently under extreme cold and high population density conditions. Potential complications arising from altered growth dynamics are discussed. Overall, the results advance knowledge on intraspecific competition processes within snow crab populations and inform fisheries management systems that male-only harvest strategies do not provide full protection from biological harm to aquatic resources through fishing.

Abstrak. Alih fungsi lahan atau lazimnya disebut sebagai konversi lahan adalah  perubahan fungsi sebagian atau seluruh kawasan lahan dari fungsinya semula (seperti yang direncanakan) menjadi fungsi lain yang membawa dampak negatif terhadap lingkungan dan potensi lahan itu sendiri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah harga lahan, kepadatan penduduk, produktivitas padi dan jumlah PDRB dapat mempengaruhi alih fungsi lahan sawah di Kabupaten Aceh Besar. Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah data sekunder. Data yang dikumpulkan adalah data time series dengan range tahun 2002 sampai 2016. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode analisis  regresi linier berganda. hasil penelitian dan pembahasan serta pengujian SPSS menunjukkan bahwa harga lahan, kepadatan penduduk, dan produktivitas padi berpengaruh nyata terhadap alih fungsi lahan sawah di Kabupaten Aceh Besar. sedangkan jumlah PDRB tidak berpengaruh terhadap alih fungsi lahan sawah. Hal ini ditunjukkan oleh koefisien regresi untuk variabel jumlah PDRB sebesar 0,00015. Hasil pengujian statistik menunjukkan nilai t hitung untuk jumlah PDRB sebesar 1,315 dengan nilai signifikan sebesar 0,218. Sedangkan nilai t tabel sebesar 1,782 yang berarti nilai t hitung t tabel (1,315 1,782).  Factors Affecting The Conversion Of Paddy Fields In Kabupaten Aceh Besar Abstract. Land use change or commonly referred to as land conversion is a change in the function of part or all of the land area from its original function (as planned) into other functions that bring negative impacts to the environment and the potential of the land itself. This study aims to find out whether the price of land, population density, rice productivity and the amount of GRDP can affect the conversion of rice field functions in Aceh Besar District. The data used in this research is secondary data. The data collected is time series data with range of year 2002 until 2016. This research use multiple linier regression analysis method. the results of research and discussion and testing of SPSS showed that land price, population density, and rice productivity significantly affected the conversion of wetland in Aceh Besar district. while the number of GDP does not affect the conversion of wetland. This is indicated by the regression coefficient for the GRDP variable of 0.00015. The results of statistical tests show the value of t arithmetic for the amount of GRDP by 1.315 with a significant value of 0.218. While the value of t table of 1.782 which means the value of t arithmetic t table (1,315 1.782).

Naegleria fowleri is a pathogenic amoeboflagellate that can be evoked to transform from amoebae to flagellates by subculture to nonnutrient buffer. More than half of the amoebae of strains KUL, nN68, and Lovell became enflagellated 300 min after subculture to amoeba-saline, whereas no amoebae of strains NF66, NF69, and HB4 did. N. fowleri nN68 enflagellated best when grown at 32 or 37 degrees C and subcultured to amoeba-saline at 37 or 42 degrees C. Amoebae from the stationary phase of growth enflagellated more readily than did actively growing amoebae. Incubation in expended culture medium from stationary-phase cultures enhanced the capability of growing amoebae to enflagellate after subculture to amoebasaline. Enflagellation was more extensive when the population density in amoebasaline did not exceed 2 x 10(5) amoebae per ml. Cycloheximide at 1 microgram/ml and actinomycin D at 25 micrograms/ml inhibited growth of N. fowleri nN68. Cycloheximide at 0.5 microgram/ml and actinomycin D at 25 micrograms/ml completely prevented enflagellation when added at time zero. Cycloheximide at 0.5 microgram/ml, added 120 to 300 min after initiation of enflagellation, prevented further differentiation and caused existing flagellates to revert to amoeboid cells. Similarly, actinomycin D at 25 micrograms/ml, added 90 to 300 min after initiation of enflagellation, retarded differentiation and caused flagellates to revert. Radiolabeled precursors were incorporated into macromolecules during differentiation in nonnutrient buffer. Enflagellation of N. fowleri is a suitable model for studying regulation of a eucaryotic protist.

The sex expression of gametophytes of Matteuccia struthiopteris (L.) Todaro was compared in nature and in culture. Plants raised from multispore cultures (100 spores/cm2) exhibited the most variety in sexual–morphological types. Individually raised plants were slower to develop and showed less variety of sexual types than was found in the multispore cultures. There appeared to be a density effect on development. Field-collected gametophytes showed the least diversity, the populations being largely composed of poorly developed male and neuter plants. The experimental and field data are considered in relation to antheridiogen and population density studies.

We examined the effect of mothers with and without new litters on maturation and growth of their daughters in laboratory colonies derived from cyclic and noncyclic populations of Clethrionomys glareolus. Mature individuals from cyclic populations are heavier than those from noncyclic populations, however, this difference was lost in our colonies. The presence of a mother had a significant effect in delaying vaginal perforation in cyclic females but not in noncyclic females. If a mother in the cyclic colony had a new litter and was lactating she appeared to be more effective in delaying vaginal perforation of her daughter than if she did not have a litter. The results are discussed in light of previous knowledge of factors affecting maturation in males and theory on population density dynamics.

In 1958-63 and 1964-71 the life systems of four kinds of test-forming psyllid that coexist on Eucalyptus blakelyi were investigated intensively in a comparative study of insect abundance. This paper deals mainly with C. albitextura, which was kept under observation from 1950 to 1974. (The others were two species of Glycaspis, Spondyliaspis sp, and Creiis costatus.) The results indicate that the differences in maximal abundance reached by the four kinds of psyllid are mainly the outcome of differences in their ability tg utilize the leaves of the host plant as a source of food, C. albitextura being much more effective than the other species. For the latter, it appears that the principal environmental determinant of abundance was the number of feeding places where nymphs could survive long enough to complete development. That number varied according to foliage and weather. C. albitextura also differed from the other species by having its population densities held for long periods far below the levels at which the food supply would be limiting, by restrictions imposed upon reproduction by adverse weather and foliage conditions (the latter being due partly to poor synchronization between the emergence of adults in spring and the occurrence of foliage attractive for oviposition), and by high mortalities due to natural enemies. The life system of C. albitextura lacks an element that can stabilize abundance at low population densities, but adverse environmental influences usually limit the rate of increase greatly when abundance is low. The magnitude of the average rate of increase to high levels of population density, and the length of time for which high average densities are maintained, depend upon the frequency with which favourable conditions of weather, foliage and predation combine to promote both survival and reproduction.
