Escala macroscópica de maturaçāo e ciclo sexual das espécies Penaeus indicus H. Milne Edward e Metapenaeus monoceros (Fabricius)

The macroscopic scale used for determination of sexual maturity in shrimps was tested against objective parameters namely the gonad-somatic index and the size of oocytes. The two main species caught in Mozambique, Penaeus indicus and Metapenaeus monoceros, were the object of the work. In order to reduce the subjectivity in the macroscopic exam, a table with the colours representative of each stage is presented. Since this study was conducted over a period of 13 consecutive months and there were observations from previous years, the sexual cycle of the two species is also presented, as well as an estimate of the size at first maturity.

La reproducción de la merluza en el Mar Argentino (Merlucciidae, Meluccius merluccius hubbsi) : 1. Descripción histológica del ciclo del ovario de merluza

The present paper deals on the histological description of the hake ovary made on the basis of gonad observations of 394 females during the period April 1966 March 1967. The material was obtained from weekly sampling of commercial catches carried out at the Institute of Marine Biology (Prov. Buenos Aires, Argentina). The anatomical and histological description of the standard ovary and the adopted terminology are given. The maturation process is divided into five periods, from ovocyte formation to yolked ovocyte formation, with its histological description. Ovary changes are analyzed on detail. The following conclusions were outlined: 1. Analysis demonstrated that although some specimens were totally spawned others, at the end of the spawning period, retaining a great number of ovocytes in different maturity stages. Therefore, postspawners have been classified as follows: Postspawned II : This stages is characterized by the empty ovarian structure, with ovocytes in stage II, which will remain in the resting phase untill next spawning season. Postspawned III and IV: Their main characteristics are: tissue destruction, bloody residuals and remaining ovocytes in stage III and IV, respectively. 2. Some transformations were found in ovaries of postspawned III and IV. They are classified as follows, according to its origin and structure: Developed from follicular cell membrane – a) Glandular formations, b) Epiteloid formations - Originated from remaining ovocytes, c) Ovocyte disintegration, d) Ovocyte with follicular cell infiltration. 3. All those structures derived from postpawners III and IV have a temporary character and will be reabsorbed. Their presence delay the recuperation of the organ and its reproductive functions. Consequently, the possibility of those structures acting as control mechanisms is suggested. 4. Transformations pointed out in paragraph Nº 2 prevent the possibility of consecutive spawning originated from the remaining ovocytes (II and IV). 5. No structures originated from postspawners III and IV were found during summer season. 6. Reproductive cycle of hake has been described monthly. It was observed that maturing ovaries predominate in summer (November-December).

Color filter-less technology of LED back light for LCD-TV - art. no. 68410G

Back Light Unit (BLU) and Color Filter are the two key components for the perfect color display of Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) device. LCD can not light actively itself, so a form of illumination, Back Light Unit is needed for its display. The color filter which consists of RGB primary colors, is used to generate three basic colors for LCD display. Traditional CCFL back light source has several disadvantages, while LED back light technology makes LCD obtain quite higher display quality than the CCFL back light. LCD device based on LED back light owns promoted efficiency of display. Moreover it can generate color gamut above 100% of the NTSC specification. Especially, we put forward an idea of Color Filter-Less technology that we design a film which is patterned of red and green emitting phosphors, then make it be excited by a blue light LED panel we fabricate, for its special emitting mechanism, this film can emit RGB basic color, therefore replace the color filter of LCD device. This frame typically benefits for lighting uniformity and provide pretty high light utilization ratio. Also simplifies back light structure thus cut down the expenses.

LCD-TV用直下式LED背光源的光学设计

三基色LED背光源是成就高品质液晶显示器的关键技术之一，其色域是传统CCFL背光源的150％以上。其中直下式背光源具有结构简单、光利用率高的特点，是目前大尺寸液晶显示背光源的首选，但是由于没有导光板，直下式背光源的光均匀性变得较差。通过对LED光场分布的模拟和分析，得出了一种新型LED光场分布设计，对由此光场分布的三基色LED组成的66cm（26in）背光源模拟表明，该背光源在未加扩散膜前，灯箱厚度为20～28mm时，亮度均匀度大于83％，△U’V’值在0．01左右；加上扩散膜之后，灯箱厚度为20mm时，均匀度可达到89．58％，△U’V’值达到0．0041。

Monitoramento da murcha do abacaxizeiro associada à cochonilha Dysmicoccus brevipes em áreas de sistema de produção integrada no Estado do Tocantins - ciclo 2010.

No Brasil, cultiva-se o abacaxizeiro, Ananas comosus (L) na maioria das regiões ,sendo a 'Pérola' a cultivar mais plantada. Apesar de seu aspecto rústico, essa bromeliácea, em uma produção comercial, exige tratos culturais e fitossanitários rigorosos, para evitar problemas como a murcha que está associada à cochonilha Dysmicoccus brevipes Cockerell (1893) (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), cujas perdas na produção, em cultivares suscetíveis, podem ultrapassar os 80% (SANCHES, 2005). O mercado interno é ainda o mais visado pelos produtores de abacaxi, sendo a aquisição ou venda de mudas entre produtores uma prática muito comum que, propicia a dispersão desse inseto de uma propriedade para outra ou de uma região para outra. O Sistema de Produção Integrada de Abacaxi é uma prática de apoio aos produtores para atender as exigências crescentes do mercado consumidor quanto à produção de alimentos seguros. Esse sistema é baseado nas boas práticas agrícolas traduzindo em valorização do ser humano, conservação do meio ambiente (solo e água), melhoria da qualidade de vida dos produtores rurais, respeito à legislação trabalhista e segurança do trabalhador.
