Population genetic structure of skipjack tuna Katsuwonus pelamis from the Indian coast using sequence analysis of the mitochondrial DNA D‐loop region - M. R. Menezes; G. Kumar; S. P. Kunal (Journal of Fish Biology, 2012)
Genetic structure of skipjack tuna Katsuwonus pelamis from the Indian region was investigated using sequence data of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) D‐loop region. A total of 315 individuals were sampled from six major fishing grounds around the east and west coasts of India including the Andaman (Port Blair) and Lakshadweep (Minicoy) Islands. Nucleotide and gene diversities were high in all the sample collections. Significant genetic heterogeneity was observed for the mtDNA sequence data among sites ( φ ST = 0·0273, P φ CT = 0·0261, P K. pelamis along the Indian coast can thus be rejected. Phylogenetic analysis of the mtDNA sequence data showed the presence of four clades of K. pelamis in the Indian waters. There was no clear pattern, however, of haplotypes and geographic location among samples. The results of this study suggest the occurrence of four genetically differentiated groups of K. pelamis across the coastal waters of India.

The long‐lived monsoon depressions of 2006 and their linkage with the Indian Ocean Dipole - R. Krishnan; D. C. Ayantika; Vinay Kumar; Samir Pokhrel (International Journal of Climatology, 2011)
A highlight of the 2006 boreal summer monsoon season was the enhanced activity of long‐lived monsoon depressions and low‐pressure systems (LPS) over the Indian region. Another important phenomenon during this period was the evolution of a positive Indian Ocean Dipole (PIOD) event. Although previous studies have investigated the impact of PIOD on the large‐scale monsoon response, their influence on monsoon LPS activity is not well understood. Based on detailed diagnostic analyses of monsoon LPS during 2006, as well as those associated with other PIOD events during 1958–2007, the present work addresses two specific issues concerning the roles of (a) PIOD‐induced large‐scale circulation changes and (b) internal feedbacks between latent heating and dynamics, in sustaining the monsoon LPS activity. The results show that PIOD conditions generally favour increased propensity of long‐lived (>5 days) LPS with long westward tracks extending into northwest India. The average contribution of long‐lived monsoon LPS to the total is found to be approximately 12% higher during PIOD episodes as compared to non‐PIOD. The PIOD events showed two important large‐scale elements conducive for enhancement of LPS activity: (a) strengthening of cross‐equatorial moisture transport from south‐eastern tropical Indian Ocean into the Bay of Bengal and (b) enrichment of barotropic instability of monsoon flow. Estimates of latent‐heating profiles from TRMM‐satellite products during the 2006 LPS showed heating in the mesoscale updrafts above 600 hPa with maximum approximately 400 hPa; while cooling prevailed in lower levels. Stratiform precipitation covered approximately 70–85% of rain area during the prolonged LPS; and the large‐scale monsoon Hadley‐type circulation was found to be intensified with strong mid‐level inflows entering the stratiform rain region. The overall findings suggest that the PIOD‐induced background circulation together with internal feedbacks between mesoscale convective systems and large‐scale circulation can effectively enhance the longevity of monsoon LPS. These results should serve as important inputs for numerical weather forecasting of extreme rainfall events associated with the regional monsoon phenomenon.

Treatment development for systemic Tetrahymena sp. infection in guppies, Poecilia reticulata Peters - M Pimenta Leibowitz; J Kumar Chettri; R Ofir; D Zilberg (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2010)
Antibacterial and antiparasitic agents and a cysteine protease inhibitor (E‐64) were tested against Tetrahymena infection, a serious problem in guppy production worldwide. Chemicals were tested in vitro by a colorimetric assay for Tetrahymena survival. The most effective were niclosamide, albendazole and chloroquine, with 23%, 35% and 60% survival, respectively, following 2‐h exposure to 100 ppm. Longer incubation periods resulted in greater reductions in survival. Niclosamide was further studied in vivo at different dosages, administered orally to Tetrahymena ‐infected guppies. Mortality rates were significantly lower in all treatment groups; in trial I, 30% and 33% mortality in 5 and 40 mg kg −1 niclosamide‐fed fish vs. 59% mortality in controls; in trial II, 35%, 13% and 10% in 50, 100 and 200 mg kg −1 niclosamide‐fed fish vs. 64% in controls. The effect of the cysteine protease inhibitor E64 was tested in tissue culture, by measuring histolytic activity of the parasite (Tet‐NI) on a guppy‐fin cell line, based on cell depletion. Tet‐NI feeding activity was significantly reduced following pretreatment with E‐64 relative to non‐treated Tet‐NI. E‐64‐pretreated Tet‐NI was injected i.p. into guppies: recorded mortality rates were significantly lower (35%) than that in non‐treated Tet‐NI (60%), suggesting inhibition of the parasite’s cysteine protease as a possible therapeutic approach.

Role of El Niño/La Niña in temperature extremes over India - J. V. Revadekar; D. R. Kothawale; K. Rupa Kumar (International Journal of Climatology, 2009)
El Niño and La Niña are well known to be associated with significant monthly/seasonal climate anomalies at many places around the globe. Therefore, an attempt is made in this study to analyse objectively defined indices of observed temperature extremes over India, in terms of their frequencies and intensities, in relation to El Niño/La Niña events using daily station data for minimum and maximum temperature at 121 well‐distributed stations for the period 1970–2003. There is a characteristic change in the El Niño southern oscillation (ENSO)‐associated extremes with the onset of the summer monsoon in June; El Niño is associated with lower frequency of warm extremes during the pre‐monsoon months and with higher frequency of warm extremes during the monsoon and post‐monsoon season. The opposite features are seen in the case of La Niña. In addition, El Niño leads to an increase in extreme highest temperature, whereas La Niña leads to a decrease, during monsoon and post‐monsoon months. Strong antecedent relationship exists between ENSO index and various seasonal extreme temperature indices over the Indian region, indicating potential for long‐range prediction of temperature extremes.

Karyotypic diversity and evolution of seven mahseer species (Cyprinidae) from India - I. Mani; R. Kumar; M. Singh; B. Kushwaha; N. S. Nagpure; P. K. Srivastava; K. Murmu; D. S. K. Rao; W. S. Lakra (Journal of Fish Biology, 2009)
Mahseer is a group of fish species that are well known as food and game fishes. The taxonomy of the mahseer species is confusing owing to the morphological variations and habitat adaptation. Detailed karyomorphological investigations have been carried out in seven species of mahseer, using karyotyping, Ag‐NOR and fluorescent staining techniques. The basic diploid chromosome number (2n), in all mahseer species, was observed to be 100; however, the karyotype formula varied among the species, which were recorded as: 20m + 14sm + 22st + 44t (fundamental arm number, FN = 134) in Tor khudree ; 22m + 24sm + 24st + 30t (FN = 146) in Tor mussullah; 12m + 22sm + 14st + 52t (FN = 134) in Tor putitora ; 20m + 24sm + 24st + 32t (FN = 144) in Tor tor ; 20m + 30sm + 24st + 26t (FN = 150) in Tor chelynoides; 20m + 20sm + 20st + 40t (FN = 140) in Tor progeneius; and 20m + 18sm + 14st + 48t (FN = 138) in Neolissochilus hexagonolepis . Silver staining of the chromosomes revealed the presence of multiple nucleolar organizer regions (NOR) in these mahseer species. The highest number of NORs was observed in T. tor (four pairs of chromosomes), whereas the other six species possessed Ag‐NOR signals on only two pairs of chromosomes. Although chromomycin A 3 (CMA 3 ) staining induced bright fluorescence signals on same Ag‐NORs sites, with CMA 3 , one additional signal was observed on the p arm of subtelocentric chromosomes in T. tor , T. chelynoides , T. progeneius and N. hexagonolepis , which may indicate the presence of inactive NOR in these species. The information on cytogenetic profile of these mahseer species is discussed in the light of cytotaxonomic implications and understanding the karyoevolution of these fish species.

Effect of model selection on computed water balance components - Raj Kumar Jhorar; A. A. M. F. R. Smit; C. W. J. Roest (Irrigation and Drainage, 2009)
Soil water flow modelling approaches as used in four selected on‐farm water management models, namely CROPWAT, FAIDS, CERES and SWAP, are compared through numerical experiments. The soil water simulation approaches used in the first three models are reformulated to incorporate an evapotranspiration process similar to that used in SWAP. Computations are carried out for three soil types, representing sandy loam, loam and sandy clay loam. The reformulated models are calibrated against simulation results obtained with SWAP. All the modelling approaches predict nearly equal estimates of cumulative actual evapotranspiration for a wheat crop. When compared with SWAP simulation results, the CERES type approach outperformed the other two approaches in respect of estimated cumulative deep percolation losses. A new criterion is proposed to interpret simulation results under deep water table conditions to suggest appropriate depth of water application. The resulting recommendations for irrigation planning suggest that any of the modelling approaches may be used to suggest practical irrigation considered in the present study.
