An effective approach to program understanding involves browsing, exploring, and creating views that document software structures at different levels of abstraction. While exploring the myriad of relationships in a multi-million line legacy system, one can easily loose context. One approach to alleviate this problem is to visualize these structures using jsheye techniques. This paper introduces...

Alnus glutinosa, Fraxinus excelsior and Papaver rhoeas have long been used in folkloric medicine for the treatment of various ailments. As part of our continuing screening of plant extracts for activities, the extracts of A. glutinosa, F. excelsior and P. rhoeas have been screened for their antioxidant and antibacterial activities, as well as their general toxicity towards brine shrimps. Among ...

We rated some reproductive characteristics of white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei (Boone, 1931) males using 46 farmed individuals (weighing 21.42 +/- 0.56 g) and 40 wild individuals (weighing 36.10 +/- 0.72 g). In farmed shrimps, spermatophore mean weight was 8.94 +/- 0.51 mg; total mean sperm count was 3.90 +/- 0.27 x 10(6) in each spermatophore; and mean percentage of normal sperm was 86.9 +/- ...

Abstract The effects of banana shrimp Fenneropenaeus merguiensis stocking density on water quality, growth performance, survival rate and body composition was assessed in a biofloc system with limited exchange. study conducted for 32 days an average larvae weight 10 ± 0.85 mg fiberglass tanks containing 120 L at four densities. Five experimental treatments consisted control (density 1000 shrimp...

White Spot Disease (WSD) is well known as a widespread viral disease in shrimps from 1992. Many studies focused on morphological, histopathological and epidemiological characteristic and pathogenecity of the disease but less on the determination of the severity of WSD using the histopathological features in target tissues. A generalized scheme for assigning a numerical qualitative value to sev...
