Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many mites possess extremely intricate life styles in close association with plant and animal hosts. Their polymorphism has made classification a challenge, and their ability to reproduce both sexually and asexually has made efforts to control their populations difficult. This, however, has given rise to theories to explain the origin and function of sexual reproduction in general. In numbers of species and geographic distribution, mites may even surpass the insects. In soils, they are a major component in the system for cycling nutrients. Unlike insects, they have invaded the marine environment. These and a number of other topics are explored in Mites. Because of their extremely small size, mites have been ignored during the development of major evolutionary and ecological theories. Yet mites routinely violate fundamental concepts such as heterochrony, sexual selection, the evolution of sex ratio, and ontogeny. Recent research methodologies have made it practical for the first time to perform experimental work with mites, and since they offer short generation times and rapid research results, they are excellent model systems. Mites announces these results and should appeal to professionals in entomology, acarology, ecology, population genetics, and evolutionary biology.

Download or read book Mites of Australia written by RB Halliday and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 751 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Checklist brings together for the first time the names of all 2620 described species of mites that are known to occur in Australia. It gives the correct nomenclature for each species, and places every species in the appropriate genus and family, using the latest available classification. The Checklist also provides a bibliography of information on biogeography, economic importance and, in the case of pests, biology and control. This work is a baseline from which more detailed and specific research projects will draw their fundamental data.

Book Medical and Veterinary Entomology

Download or read book Medical and Veterinary Entomology written by Gary R. Mullen and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2002-09-27 with total page 615 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medical and Veterinary Entomology is a comprehensive text and is primarily intended for graduate students and upper level undergraduates studying the medical and veterinary significance of insects and related arthropods. The book will also appeal to a larger audience, specialists and non-specialists alike, including entomologists, parasitologists, biologists, epidemiologists, physicians, public health personnel, veterinarians, wildlife specialists and others looking for a readable, authoritative book on this topic. The first two chapters provide overviews of medical-veterinary entomology and epidemiology, respectively. These are followed by individual chapters devoted to each group of insects or arachnids of medical-veterinary importance and the health problems they can cause including their role as vectors of pathogens. Each of these chapters provides an overview of the taxonomy, biology and ecology of the group, and is followed by separate sections on their medical and veterinary importance, then by a section on prevention and control and, finally, by a list of references and further reading. Nationally and internationally renowned contributing authors Up to date and new information that is easy to locate, with extensive subheadings and highlighted key words throughout text Includes extensive coverage of arachnids, including scorpions, solpugids, spiders, mites and ticks Designed for teaching several courses including Medical Entomology, Veterinary Entomology or combined Medical-Veterinary Entomology courses

Book Effect of the Northern Fowl Mite  Ornithonyssus Sylviarum  Canestrini and Fanzago   on White Leghorn Roosters

Download or read book Effect of the Northern Fowl Mite Ornithonyssus Sylviarum Canestrini and Fanzago on White Leghorn Roosters written by Joyce Ann De Vaney and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects of the northern fowl mite, Ornithonyssus sylviarum (Canestrini and Fanzago), on body weight, reproductive potential and hematology of White Leghorn roosters were studied. Mean body weight was approximately 100 g. less for the mite infested roosters than for the uninfested roosters 4 weeks after they were infested with the northern fowl mite. Both groups increased in weight throughout the 26 weeks of the test but the differences in weight remained. Reproductive potential studies showed that after moderate populations of mites (101-1,000 mites/rooster) were observed, the volume of seminal fluid decreased. Four weeks before the test ended, one half of the infested roosters produced an average of less than 0.1 ml. of seminal fluid per week while the other half showed a decrease of 0.07 ml. in volume of seminal fluid produced when compared with the controls. Sperm concentration of mite infested roosters increased as the volume of seminal fluid decreased but was not statistically different from the controls. Motility and live/dead ratios of sperm did not show significant differences. Serum testosterone levels were statistically different between mite infested and control roosters. Hematology studies showed the greatest decrease in RBC and PCV occurred from the 4th to the 8th weeks when infestations were initially increasing rapidly. Mean Hemoglobin concentrations for the infested birds were consistently lower but not statistically different from the controls. No specific anemia could be attributed to mite populations as all hematological values were within normal ranges.
