1. Modelling beef cattle production systems from the Pampas in Brazil to assess intensification options
ABSTRACT Traditional livestock productivity is hard to estimate, since it depends on a gamut of animal production indicators that are difficult to measure for many farms. Thus, we propose an analytical method for estimating productivity and understanding the importance of animal production indicators under different full-cycle cattle production systems in Br

2. Typology of beef production systems according to bioeconomic efficiency in the south of Brazil
RESUMO: O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a eficiência bioeconômica em sistemas de produção de bovinos de corte no sul do Brasil. A pesquisa foi realizada com 33 pecuaristas que operam com sistemas de produção baseado em ciclo completo, em áreas maiores ou iguais a 900 hectares. As respostas foram classificadas em dois fatores: tecnologia (TEC) e g

3. Extra-pair paternity in a Neotropical rainforest songbird, the White-necked Thrush Turdus albicollis (Aves: Turdidae)
ABSTRACT Over the last two decades, several studies have shown that the mating systems of various birds are more complex than previously believed, and paternity tests performed with molecular techniques have proved, for instance, that the commonly observed social monogamy often presents important variations, such as extra-pair paternity. However, data are st

4. Investimento parental e papéis sexuais em opiliões com cuidado paternal exclusivo / Parental investment and sex roles in harvestmen with exclusive paternal care
Exclusive paternal care is the rarest form of post-zygotic parental investment in nature, which has independently evolved in no more than 14 arthropod lineages. Although many of those species are easily observed and manipulated, only recently researchers have started to pay attention and test hypotheses on parental investment and evolution of sex roles in su

5. ESTUDO DA RECRIA DE NOVILHAS DE CORTE EM PASTAGENS CULTIVADAS DE VERÃO / STUDY OF BEEF HEIFERS REARING ON WARM-SEASON PASTURES
Heifers rearing is a determinant step of efficiency in beef cattle production systems on pastures. Several experiments have tested alternative uses for tropical grasses to heifers rearing. In order to summarize results and making not visible relationships evident in these individual experiments an analysis was performed in a set of data from six experiments

6. Allozyme variation in a natural population of Stryphnodendron adstringens in the Rio Preto State Park, southeastern Brazil
Leaves and fruits from 63 Stryphnodendron adstringens trees were sampled in the Rio Preto State Park to analyze allozyme segregation, tissue specific expression of allozyme loci, and their genetic parameters. The enzyme systems ADH, EST, ACP, PGM, PGI, GDH, G6PDH, GOT, IDH, LAP, MDH, PER and SKDH were assessed by means of starch-gel electrophoresis. The poly

7. Genetics, evolution and conservation of Bromeliaceae
Bromeliaceae is a morphologically distinctive and ecologically diverse family originating in the New World. Three centers of diversity, 58 genera, and about 3,140 bromeliad species are currently recognized. We compiled all of the studies related to the reproductive biology, genetic diversity, and population structure of the Bromeliaceae, and discuss the evol

8. Avaliação da Proporção Sexual de Embriões Desenvolvidos In Vitro e de Progênie a Campo de Touros Jovens. / Evaluation of the Sex Ratio of Embryos Developed In Vitro and in Field Progeny of Young Sires.
Some of the main problems that affect the in vitro production of embryos is the variation among bulls in relation to fertility and the greater birth of male embryos. Many factors can change the ratio 1:1 between the genders, both in the in vitro production of embryos and in the method of artificial insemination. To try to change this sex ratio in vitro, we s

9. ALTERNATIVAS FORRAGEIRAS PARA SISTEMAS DE RECRIA DE NOVILHAS DE CORTE / ALTERNATIVES FOR FORAGE REARING SYSTEMS FOR BEEF HEIFERS
Foram conduzidos dois experimentos com o objetivo de avaliar os atributos das pastagens e o desempenho produtivo e reprodutivo de novilhas de corte dos nove aos 13 meses de idade (Experimento 1) e posteriormente dos 15 aos 18 meses de idade (Experimento 2). No Experimento 1 o período destinado a avaliação da pastagem e dos animais totalizou 112 dias, de18

10. Reproductive period of the swimming crab Callinectes danae at the Santa Cruz Channel, a highly productive tropical estuary in Brazil
The aim of this study was to analyze reproductive aspects of Callinectes danae in one of the most productive estuarine systems in the Northeast Brazil, Santa Cruz Channel. A total of 1.573 individuals, being 756 females (23 ovigerous) and 817 males were examined from January to December 2009. Mature males and females, as well as couples of C. danae, occurred

11. Mating system parameters in Stylosanthes guianensis (Aubl.) Sw. based on RAPD markers
This study investigated the mating systems in Stylosanthes guianensis, an important tropical forage legume. Twelve progenies were analyzed with 21 polymorphic random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) loci. The mating parameters estimated using the mixed mating model showed that this population practices a mixture of selfing (61.4%) and out-crossing (38.6%) fo

12. Diversidade de Coccinellidae (Coleoptera) em plantas aromáticas (Apiaceae) como sítios de sobrevivência e reprodução em sistema agroecológico
Studies show that Apiaceae may provide concentrated vital resources for predator insects, stimulating their abundance, diversity and persistence in agricultural systems, thereby increasing their efficiency as biological control agents. Among the predatory insects, Coccinellidae (Coleoptera) on many different species both as larvae and adults, complementing t
