The present study was undertaken to determine how honey bee colonies consume various artificial diets treatments during the times when natural food sources are scarce in the study region. \u0000Study Site and Duration: The present experiment was carried out at apiary of Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Morena and at beekeeper’s apiary in Morena district of Madhya Pradesh during 2022-23 and 2023-24. \u0000Methodology: Five different artificial diets were formulated and a weighted amount of diets, in the form of patties, were given to experimental colonies in three replicates by wrapping in the butter paper and placed on the top bar over the brood frames starting from October to December at weekly intervals during dearth periods. The net weight of diets consumed (fresh weight - weight of the remaining diet) was measured after each feeding at weekly intervals. \u0000Results: The results revealed that significant highest mean consumption was recorded from the colonies fed with Diet 4 with 34.39g/colony (2022-23) and 35.29g/colony (2023-24). The decreasing order of amount of consumption of the different diets was observed as follows: Diet 4 >Diet 1>Diet 3>Diet 2>Diet 5. Regardless of the diets, highest consumption was recorded on November 11th with 58.95g/colony (2022-23) and 61.41g/colony (2023-24) and the lowest consumption of 5.88g/colony (2022-23) and 5.55g/colony (2023-24) on 16th December with no further consumption recorded in any of the diets. \u0000Conclusion: The study concluded that Diet 4 exhibited the highest mean consumption indicating the most preferred diet, followed by Diets 1, 3, 2, and 5. Peak consumption was reported on November 11th, and the lowest on December 16th, with no further consumption thereafter.","PeriodicalId":278386,"journal":{"name":"UTTAR PRADESH JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGY","volume":"32 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141649196","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Diabetes has become more commonplace worldwide in recent times, which has made the search for alternate treatment approaches necessary. Because of their possible anti-diabetic effects, edible mushrooms—a natural source of bioactive compounds—have drawn interest. This research assesses the possible anti-diabetic benefits of edible mushrooms, concentrating on their bioactive constituents and mechanisms that modulate insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism, and emphasises their potential significance in diabetes prevention. The review concludes that EM can predict insulin resistance through active chemicals like polysaccharides and vitamin D, as well as preventative activities like β-glucosidase and β-amylase. The therapeutic benefits of many mushroom types have not been thoroughly researched, and the mechanism remains unclear. More study on edible medicinal mushrooms is needed to fully utilise their therapeutic promise in preventing noncommunicable diseases.","PeriodicalId":278386,"journal":{"name":"UTTAR PRADESH JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGY","volume":"31 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141649204","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One helpful technique for assessing the general health of different fish species is the analysis of blood parameters. Present study investigated the detrimental effects of deltamethrin on different hematological parameters of a fresh water fish, common carp (Cyprinus carpio). An experiment with a 28-day exposure to 1/20th and 1/10th of the 96-hour LC50 value (0.114µl/L) was conducted in order to investigate the effects of sub-lethal concentrations. On the 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th day of exposure, several hematological parameters like Total Erythrocyte Count (TEC), Total Leukocyte Count (TLC), Hemoglobin (Hb), Hematocrit/Packed Cell Volume (Hct/PCV), Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV), Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH) and Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC) were analyzed in comparison to control. After the exposure of different concentrations of deltamethrin significant decline (P*<0.05 and P**<0.01) in Hb, TEC, PCV and MCHC was noted as compared to control. On the contrary TLC, MCV and MCH showed increasing trend after the treatment of pesticide. This study showed that deltamethrin considerably altered the hematological markers of fish, even at sub-lethal concentrations.","PeriodicalId":278386,"journal":{"name":"UTTAR PRADESH JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGY","volume":"29 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141650975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study area was divided into 4 quadrats of area 2700 m2 each. Bird species as well as number of individuals of each species were counted using the Line Transect Method. Statistical analysis of the data was performed using Windows Microsoft Excel and SPSS v.28. The investigation revealed a significant correlation (P < 0.05) between bird species and the four distinct sites within the study area. These sites exhibit variations in vegetation composition and include notable features like water bodies. The findings underscore the heavy reliance of certain bird species in this region on specific types of vegetation for their survival and well-being. Removing even a single plant species could potentially disrupt the entire ecosystem. The study documented the presence of 42 bird species across 30 families, including one vulnerable species. Both local and seasonal migratory birds were observed during the research. Although the study identified a decline in bird diversity within the study area, it remains species-rich, displaying moderate to high diversity (Simpson’s Dominance Index: 0.0319; Margalef’s Richness Index: 4.0754). This research emphasizes the critical importance of conserving bird species and their associated vegetation to maintain ecosystem integrity. Strategic sustainable development practices along with habitat enrichment for birds is recommended to maintain the valuable avifaunal diversity of the study area. By highlighting the intricate relationship between birds and their habitat, the study highlights the significance of conservation efforts in safeguarding the overall health of the ecosystem.","PeriodicalId":278386,"journal":{"name":"UTTAR PRADESH JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGY","volume":"18 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141651576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Coastal areas can exhibit distinct biodiversity hotspots due to their diverse habitats, such as coral reefs, mangrove forests, and intertidal zones. These hotspots often support unique assemblages of species adapted to specific coastal conditions. Ecosystem services provided by marine biodiversity include provisioning services (seafood, resources for medicine); regulating services (stable climate and clean water); cultural services (recreational and mental benefits: sea bathing); and supporting services (nutrient circulation and photosynthesis). Despite some successful conservation efforts, biodiversity continues to decline. Marine ecosystems are vulnerable to rapid changes in diversity and function. Major pressures and threats causing increasing pressure on coastal and marine biodiversity include climate change, ocean acidification, habitat destruction and changes in sea use, invasive species, overexploitation, and pollution. Preservation of coastal biodiversity is of prime importance for human wellbeing. The coastal ecosystems sustain diverse life forms and also safeguard essential ecological services. Therefore conservation and restoration of coastal biodiversity is a timeless responsibility for sustainable development. In light of these observations, this review aims to update recent information from the available literature on the key stressors of marine and coastal biodiversity loss. This study also suggests the strategies to be implemented for successful conservation and restoration of coastal and marine biodiversity.","PeriodicalId":278386,"journal":{"name":"UTTAR PRADESH JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGY","volume":"65 30","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141651999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The physicochemical properties and antimicrobial activity of chitosan (CH) in combination with cellulose derivatives like Carboxy Methyl Cellulose (CMC) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) against various test organisms were evaluated in this study. The results showed that the combined treatment with CMC and HPMC significantly inhibited fungal decay and enhanced fruit quality attributes such as firmness, colour, and nutritional content. Moreover, the combination of HPMC and CH exhibited the highest zone of inhibition for Pseudomonas and Rhizopus at concentrations 2 & 3%. The combined treatment of CH and CMC with HPMC exhibited significant antibacterial activity against all tested organisms. In addition, the titratable acidity levels in strawberry fruits significantly decreased during cold storage, with uncoated fruits exhibiting lower values compared to those coated with chitosan. In conclusion, the efficacy of the chitosan was confirmed in enhancing the postharvest preservation of strawberries, particularly in mitigating ripening processes, minimizing microbial growth, and enhancing fruit firmness. The findings from this study could pave the way for the development of eco-friendly preservation strategies, promoting food security and extending the marketability of strawberries.","PeriodicalId":278386,"journal":{"name":"UTTAR PRADESH JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGY","volume":"60 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141654636","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast, Ginger beer showed protein estimation of < 1mg/ml , 4.9g/100ml carbohydrate. Ambali has a cooling effect on body, it also aids in weight loss, has high protein and fiber content and also is rich in good bacteria. On the other hand Ginger beer provides antioxidants, anti- inflammatory benefits. This research not only provides valuable insights into the nutritional qualities of Ambali and Ginger beer but also considers the potential health implications of consuming these fermented drinks. Homemade Ambali, being prepared traditionally, tends to have minimal or no added sugars making it an good option.
