Population Abundance and Parasitization Level of Indigenous Parasites to Invasive Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) (Diptera: Agromyzidae) on Asteraceae Plants in Bali. This study was aimed to determine the population abundance and parasitization level of indigenous parasitoid associated with Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) in Asteraceae plants in Bali. The study was conducted from January to March 2019 by survey method on the type of parasitoid, abundance and parasitisation level  in  Asteraceae  plants  which  included  to  Chrysanthemum,  Gerbera  jamesonii  and Helianthus annuus, which are spread in several regencies in Bali such as Buleleng (1200 m asl), Bangli (900-1000 m asl) and Denpasar (40 m asl). Sampling was done purposively on the leaves of plants attacked by Liriomyza sp. and then maintained at the Laboratory until the parasitoid adults appeared. Afterward, morphologically was identified the type of parasitoid that appears. The results showed that there were three types of indigenous parasitoid associated with L. trifolii namely Hemiptarsenus varicornis, Neochrysocharis okazakii, and Opiusdissitus. The most dominant parasitoid of the three types of H. varicornis parasitoid with an abundance of 78.57% and parasitization rate of 53.23% was found in Chrysanthemum plants.

Context An understanding of population size and status is necessary for the implementation of appropriate conservation measures to recover threatened taxa. Mark–recapture studies at large spatial scales are impractical and expensive and a rapid survey technique is an attractive option to provide a measure of relative abundance for cryptic species, using indicators of activity. Aims The aim of our study was to use conventional methods for population estimation to calibrate a rapid survey technique for the quokka (Setonix brachyurus) in the southern forests of Western Australia, with a view to providing quantitative outcomes from this widely adopted monitoring approach. Methods We evaluated the accuracy of relative abundances obtained from the rapid survey technique by comparing them with abundance estimates obtained through established methods for the estimation of populations, including web-based mark–recapture and transect-based counts of activity indicators and sightings. Key results The rapid survey technique was effective at determining presence of quokkas but resulted in an over-estimation of population size because of inaccurate assumptions about occupancy and relative abundance of animals. An alternative survey method based on counts of fresh faecal-pellet groups was found to provide a more reliable and practical estimation of population abundance (R2 = 0.97). Conclusions Activity indices can be used to quantify population abundance, but only for indicators of activity that can be detected readily and for which freshness of activity can be determined. Implications Our findings suggest that a rapid survey based on activity indices can be used to evaluate quantitatively the population size of a species that is rare and potentially mobile at a landscape scale. The attraction of these techniques is that they provide a rapid and inexpensive survey option that is potentially applicable to any cryptic and/or threatened species and is practical for resource-constrained land managers.

The leafminer, Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) is a key pest of gerbera daisies (Gerbera jamesonii Bolus), which are among the most preferred cut flowers in the world. While insecticides often fail to control this pest, parasitoids have proven to be effective. To maintain the parasitoids in the system, pesticide applications should be avoided. However, the influx of secondary pests like mites, thrips, whiteflies, and aphids during the growing season necessitates chemical sprays, which are effective in controlling the secondary pests, but are often toxic to the natural enemy and hence disrupt biological control. Since chemicals are not easily avoided in this system, an alternative method to avoid leafminers was sought, using host plant resistance, which can be an important component of integrated pest management (IPM) programs. Sixty gerbera cultivars were evaluated for potential resistance to L. trifolii. A range in susceptibility measured as leaf punctures and developing mines was evident for the first five weeks of a six-week exposure period. Gerberas ‘Jaguar Pink’, ‘Jaguar Rose Deep’, ‘Jaguar Salmon Pastel’, and ‘Revolution Spring Pastel’ were the least damaged, exhibiting less than 20% of the highest damage on at least two observation dates. However, consistent exposure to high numbers of leafminers resulted in similar expression of damage among all cultivars after five weeks. Differences among cultivars in force required to puncture leaves could not be consistently associated with damage due to leafminers

A methodology has been developed and demonstrated which is capable of determining total amounts of asbestos fibers and fibrils in air ranging from as low as fractional nanograms per cubic meter (ng/m3) of air to several micrograms/m3. The method involves the collection of samples on an absolute filter and provides an unequivocal identification and quantification of the total asbestos contents including fibrils in the collected samples.The developed method depends on the trituration under controlled conditions to reduce the fibers to fibrils, separation of the asbestos fibrils from other collected air particulates (beneficiation), and the use of transmission microscopy for identification and quantification. Its validity has been tested by comparative analyses by neutron activation techniques. It can supply the data needed to set emissions criteria and to serve as a basis for assessing the potential hazard for asbestos pollution to the populace.

Low Birth Weight (LBW) is an infant born with a birth weight of less than 2500 grams regardless of gestation. Birth weight is the weight of the baby weighed in 1 hour after birth. (Depkes RI, 2009). Based on WHO and UNICEF data, in 2013 about 222 million babies were born in the world, of which 16% were born with low birth weight. The percentage of LBW in developing countries is 16.5% twice that of developed countries (7%) (Scholar Unand, 2014). The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship between anemia and Smoking Habit in Pregnant Women with LBW occurrence in General Hospital Dr. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang Year 2016. This research use analytical survey method with cross sectional approach. The population in this study were all mothers who gave birth monthly in Midwifery Installation of Dr. General Hospital Mohammad Hoesin Palembang in 2016 as many as 315 respondents. The sample of this research is some of mothers who give birth enough month in Midwifery Installation of Dr. General Hospital Mohammad Hoesin Palembang Year 2016 as many as 315 respondents. ". From the results of bivariate analysis of anemic respondents with the occurrence of LBW obtained statistical test X2 count = 23.22 which means there is a significant relationship between anemia with the incidence of BBLR. Respondents smoking with the occurrence of LBWR obtained statistical test X2 count = 41.20 which means there is a relationship Meaningful between smoking and LBW incidence. From the results of this study is expected that this research can be a reference material and is a complete information and useful for the development of knowledge about LBW.
