- Abstract
In sampling of pests with low densities, it is common to obtain a large number of zeros, which is difficult to manage since the Poisson and negative binomial probability distributions are not suitable for modeling and equations to estimate the optimal sample size are not available. In this study model the excess of zeros by estimating parameters through the methods of moments and maximum likelihood of the zero-inflated Poisson and zero-inflated negative binomial distributions, and to derive equations to calculate the optimal sample size. Systematic sampling was used to select 100 trees per grove of Río Red grapefruit (Citrus paradisi Macfad) at Finca Sayula, Veracruz, Mexico (latitude 19.20722, longitude -96.35194), from June to July 2021 and January 2022. The number of leafminers (Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton) and aphids (Toxoptera citricida Kirkaldy) present in three leaves per shoot per tree, considered as a sample unit, was counted. Simulations were performed in RStudio with different proportions of zero (0.1, 0.4, and 0.6) to compare the parameters obtained in the field using the methods of moments and maximum likelihood. Equations were derived to estimate the optimal sample size in studies of pests with low densities, based on the zero-inflated Poisson and zero-inflated negative binomial probability distributions. The method of moments yields optimal sample sizes smaller than those obtained by maximum likelihood, because they distinguish the origin from zero, so its use is recommended., En muestreos de plagas con densidades bajas es común obtener gran cantidad de ceros, lo que es difícil de manejar, ya que las distribuciones de probabilidad Poisson y binomial negativa no son adecuadas para su modelación y no se dispone de ecuaciones para estimar el tamaño de muestra óptimo. En este estudio se modelo el exceso de ceros mediante la estimación de parámetros a través de los métodos de momentos y de máxima verosimilitud de las distribuciones Poisson cero inflado y binomial negativa cero inflado, y derivar ecuaciones para calcular el tamaño de muestra óptima. Se utilizó muestreo sistemático para seleccionar 100 árboles por huerto de toronja (Citrus paradisi Macfad) Río Red, en la Finca Sayula, Veracruz, México (latitud 19.20722, longitud -96.35194), de junio a julio 2021 y enero 2022. Se contó el número de minadores (Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton) y pulgones (Toxoptera citricida Kirkaldy) presentes en tres hojas por brote por árbol, consideradas como unidad muestral. Se realizaron simulaciones en RStudio con diferentes proporciones de cero (0.1, 0.4 y 0.6) para comparar los parámetros obtenidos en campo, mediante el método de los momentos y máxima verosimilitud. Se derivaron ecuaciones para estimar el tamaño de muestra óptimo en estudios de plagas con densidades bajas, a partir de las distribuciones de probabilidad Poisson cero inflado y binomial negativa cero inflado. El método de los momentos arroja tamaños de muestra óptimos menores a aquellos obtenidos mediante máxima verosimilitud, debido a que distinguen el origen del cero, por lo que se recomienda su uso.

RURAL extension ,GOVERNMENT policy ,AGRICULTURAL innovations ,REGRESSION analysis - Abstract
Rural extension public policies are considered globally as a defining factor to accelerate agricultural innovation and to influence the reduction of rural poverty. Therefore, evaluating their results becomes important. The objective of this study was to evaluate the improvement in the income of recipients of the rural extension policy in Mexico during 2014-205. Data disaggregated at the level of plot by groups of recipients and nonrecipients were used to evaluate the results based on the explicative variable of income. A database with statistical population of 1,083 producers was used, from which 58.5% were recipients and the rest nonrecipients. Two regression models were adjusted to compare results. The multiple linear regression model based on ordinary least squares was adjusted in a first moment and, then, another non-linear generalized additive model with Pareto type dependent variable; in addition, a Bayesian additive regression tree model was used to verify the effect of the policy on the income of the recipients. The results exhibit that the generalized additive model with Pareto distribution and an identity link function was the best model, according to Akaike's information criterion. In the adjusted models, it was shown that being a recipient of the rural extension policy has a positive effect on the producers' income. This implies that the policy evaluated improved the income among its recipients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To identify the costs and benefits attributable to the “Healthy Water for La Laguna” project, quantifying and evaluating them throughout their useful life, with the aim of judging the convenience of conducting this project. Design/methodology/approach: An Economic-Financial Evaluation was conducted determining the main economic indicators: Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Net Present Value (NPV), and Cost-Benefit Rate (C/B R). Results: The project “Healthy Water for La Laguna” was profitable given the following indicators: Social Net Present Value of $26’819,451,175 in a horizon of evaluation of 34 years considering a discount rate of 10%, an Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 35.29%, and a Benefit-Cost Rate of 2.8. In the sensitivity analysis, it was determined that the project shows a low sensitivity to the increase in investment and operation costs. However, it was seen that the variable that could have the most significant impact is that of benefits, since a reduction of more than 64.33% would make the Net Present Value (NPV) lower than zero. Limitations on study/implications: The one limitation found in the study was the lack of information, since some missing data had to be estimated. Findings/conclusions: It can be concluded that the execution of the project is essential and necessary to achieve an immediate increase in the consumption of drinking water in the locations covered by the project, in addition to serving as a departure point to improve the quality of the water used and to reduce the impacts of overexploitation.

En México existen especies arbóreas, específicamente, el grupo de las coníferas, las cuales permiten analizar y reconstruir las variaciones climáticas del pasado de una o varias regiones geográficas. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar el potencial de respuesta dendrocronológica de Abies guatemalensis Rehder a la variabilidad climática en Ixtlán de Juárez, Oaxaca. Se desarrollaron cronologías de madera temprana, de madera tardía y de anillo total de 206 años (1810-2015). El análisis de correlación estacional señaló una relación directa entre la cronología RWI residual con la precipitación de invierno-primavera (r = 0.67, p < 0.01) y una relación indirecta con la temperatura máxima de primavera (r = -0.42, p < 0.01) del año actual de crecimiento. Mediante un modelo de regresión lineal se reconstruyó la precipitación acumulada de febrero a abril, de los últimos 136 años (1880-2015), el modelo explicó 44% de la variabilidad de los registros meteorológicos locales del período de calibración (1952-2010). Los períodos más secos ocurrieron en las décadas 1880, 1900, 1940, 1970, 1980, 1990 y 2000. El análisis espectral de la reconstrucción mostró una periodicidad cuasi-cíclica de 2.2 años y 3.8 años, indicando una asociación con el fenómeno ENSO. La sensibilidad de la especie a variaciones climáticas reflejadas en el grosor de los anillos de crecimiento sugiere que A. guatemalensis tiene potencial para reconstrucciones hidroclimáticas, lo que permitirá extender en el tiempo los registros instrumentales para análisis más amplios de fluctuaciones en el clima y sus tendencias en esta región del país. In Mexico there are tree species, specifically, the group of conifers, which allow to analyze and reconstruct the climatic variations of the past of one or more geographical regions. The objective of this study was to determine the dendrochronological response potential of Abies guatemalensis Rehder. to climatic variability in Ixtlán de Juárez, Oaxaca. Earlywood, latewood and total ring chronologies of 206 years (1810-2015) were developed. The seasonal correlation analysis revealed a direct relationship between the residual RWI chronology with the winter-spring precipitation (r = 0.67, p < 0.01) and an indirect relationship with the maximum spring temperature (r = -0.42, p < 0.01) of the current year of growth. Using a linear regression model, the accumulated precipitation from February to April was reconstructed over the last 136 years (1880-2015), which explained 44% of the variability of the local meteorological records of the calibration period (1952-2010). The driest periods occurred in the 1880's, 1900's, 1940's, 1970's, 1980's, 1990's and 2000's. The spectral analysis of the reconstruction showed quasi-cyclic periodicity of 2.2 years and 3.8 years, indicating an association with El Nino-Southern Oscillation. The sensitivity of the species to climatic variations reflected in the thickness of its growth rings, suggests that A. guatemalensis has potential for hydroclimatic reconstructions, which will allow to extend in time the instrumental records for broader analyses of fluctuations in the climate and its trends in this region of the country.

- Abstract
This research intended to define the socioeconomic characteristics of families and their use of forest resources in three rural communities in the municipality of Cintalapa Chiapas, Mexico. 80 “ejidatarios”; heads of families who possess land areas were interviewed. Evidently, 57.1% of “ejidatarios” are farmers and 30% are cattle ranchers. The weekly family income is $780.60 and 75% considered this to signify poverty. 83% of “ejidatarios” in Venustiano Carranza have food supply problems; in Francisco I. Madero this is 51.4% and in Triunfo de Madero 51.5%. 100% of families live in overcrowded homes. The main crop is maize with yields of 2.5 t/ha and the most important livestock activity is cattle ranching with an average of 20 head of cattle per producer. The species with the highest value in the Cultural Importance Index are the cattle kept in ranches. All the backyards grow species that complement food consumption, mainly fruit. 48.7% of “ejidatarios” obtain part of their food from the forest by hunting and gathering. In these rural communities, more than 80% receive some type of government support., El objetivo de esta investigación fue conocer las características socioeconómicas de las familias y el uso del bosque en tres comunidades rurales del municipio de Cintalapa Chiapas, México. Se entrevistaron a 80 ejidatarios jefes de familia que tienen posesión de la tierra. Se encontró que 57.1% de los ejidatarios son agricultores y 30% ganaderos. Los ingresos familiares semanales son de $780.60 y 75% se considera pobre. De los ejidatarios de Venustiano Carranza 83% tienen problemas de abastecimiento de alimentos; Francisco I. Madero 51.4% y Triunfo de madero 51.5%. Todas las familias presentan hacinamiento en sus hogares. El cultivo principal es el maíz con rendimientos de 2.5 t/ha y la actividad ganadera más importante es la crianza de bovinos con un promedio de 20 cabezas de ganado por productor. Las especies con mayor valor de Índice de Importancia Cultural son las que se utilizan en la actividad ganadera. la totalidad de los traspatios contienen especies que complementan el consumo de alimento principalmente fruta. De los ejidatarios 48.7% obtienen parte de su alimentación con recursos del bosque a través de la cacería y la colecta. En las comunidades rurales más de 80% reciben algún tipo de apoyo gubernamental.

Adding gelling agents to convert the liquid state of the semen extender to a solid state allows for an increased sperm life span. Gelatin and alginate have been used to study the effects of gelling agents on sperm quality. However, there are other gelling agents that have not been studied, such as agar. In addition, studying different sources of gelling agents or the effect of mixing more than one gelling agent with semen extenders on sperm fertility has received little attention. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of adding agar and a mixture of gelling agents from different sources to semen extender on ram sperm traits and fertility. The first trial evaluated the effect of the addition of 2.5–3 mg mL−1 of gelatin mixed with 0.5–20 mg mL−1 of agar or alginate to ram semen extender on sperm (motility, progressive motility, live/dead, membrane integrity) and semen (pH) characteristics. The response variables were evaluated 1, 72 and 144 h after storage at 4°C. In the second trial, two sources (feed grade and bacteriological) of gelatin and agar were evaluated on the response variables as in Trial 1. In trial 3, a total of 34 ewes were inseminated with doses supplemented (n = 17) with or without (n = 17) agar and gelatin. The pregnancy rate was diagnosed 40 days after insemination. In general, adding agar and gelatin improves (p <.05) sperm motility, membrane integrity and the ratio of live sperm after 144 h of storage compared to the Control group, regardless of the source (bacteriological or feed grade). However, the pregnancy rate in ewes was not influenced (p ≥.05) by semen doses stored with agar and gelatin. In conclusion, the addition of agar and gelatin preserves ram sperm motility and membrane integrity after 144 of storage at 4°C without affecting the pregnancy rate in inseminated ewes.

México -- Evaluación - Abstract
La ramificación de los árboles tiene un impacto económico importante en las plantaciones forestales, ya que afecta la calidad de la madera. La posibilidad de incorporar estas características en un programa de mejora genética depende de su heredabilidad y estructura genética con la productividad de los árboles. El objetivo del estudio fue estimar la repetibilidad de los parámetros genéticos de las características de ramificación en progenies de Pinus patula a 7 años y 10 años de edad, así como su relación genética con la tasa de crecimiento de los árboles. Las características de ramificación (número de verticilos, número, diámetro y ángulo de ramas, y presencia de defectos en la ramificación) y crecimiento (altura, diámetro y volumen del tronco) se evaluaron en 84 familias de polinización libre. Con estos datos se estimó la heredabilidad y las correlaciones genéticas, fenotípicas y edad-edad de las características. El control genético de las características de ramificación varío de nulo a moderado (0.00 [less than or equal to] [h.sup.2]i [less than or equal to] 0.23; 0.00 [less than or equal to] [h.sup.2]f [less than or equal to] 0.42), pero fue estable en las dos edades. Las características de ramificación con variación genética mostraron una estructura genética favorable con las de crecimiento. El número de verticilos y el diámetro de ramas ajustado tuvieron una correlación negativa (-0.60 [less than or equal to] [r.sub.g] [less than or equal to] -0.01), y el ángulo de ramas una correlación positiva (0.14 [less than or equal to] [r.sub.g] [less than or equal to] 0.47), con el crecimiento de los árboles. La repetibilidad de la estructura genética de las características de ramificación y crecimiento de los árboles fue alta, en términos de las correlaciones edad-edad (0.58 [less than or equal to] [r.sub.g] [less than or equal to] 0.94; 0.83 [less than or equal to] [r.sub.p]f [less than or equal to] 1.00) y del coeficiente de correlación entre las matrices de correlaciones genéticas y fenotípicas en las dos edades (r [greater than or equal to] 0.86). La selección individual o entre familias para aumentar la productividad en esta población causaría mejoras en la ramificación (menor número de verticilos y ramas más delgadas, con ángulo mayor) y, por lo tanto, en la calidad de la madera. Palabras clave: ángulo de ramas, calidad de madera, correlaciones genéticas, diámetro de ramas, heredabilidad, respuesta a la selección. Due to their effect on wood quality, branching traits have an important economic impact in forest plantations. The potential for including these traits in a tree-breeding program depends on their heritability and their genetic relationships with productivity of trees. The objective of the study was to estimate the repeatability of genetic parameters for branching traits in Pinus patula progenies at 7 years and 10 years of age, and their genetic relationship with growth rate of trees. Branching (number of whorls, branch number, diameter and angle, and branching defects) and growth (stem height, diameter and volume) traits were evaluated in 84 open-pollinated families. The data obtained was used to estimate heritability as well as genetic, phenotypic and age-age correlations of traits. Genetic control of branching traits varied from null to moderate (0.00 [less than or equal to] [h.sup.2]i [less than or equal to] 0.23; 0.00 [less than or equal to] [h.sup.2]f [less than or equal to] 0.42), but it was stable at both ages. Branching traits with genetic variation showed a favorable genetic structure with growth traits. Number of whorls and adjusted branch diameter had a negative correlation (-0.60 [less than or equal to] [r.sub.g] [less than or equal to] -0.01), and branch angle a positive correlation (0.14 [less than or equal to] [r.sub.g] [less than or equal to] 0.47) with growth rate. Repeatability of genetic structure for all branching and growth traits was high, in terms of age-age correlations (0.58 [less than or equal to] [r.sub.g] [less than or equal to] 0.94; 0.83 [less than or equal to] [r.sub.p]f [less than or equal to] 1.00) and the correlation coefficient between the matrices of genetic and phenotypic correlations at both ages (r [greater than or equal to] 0.86). Individual or family selection to increase productivity in this population would also improve branching traits on trees (fewer whorls and thin branches with wider angle), and thus wood quality. Keywords: branch angle, wood quality, genetic correlation, branch size, heritability, selection response., INTRODUCCIÓN Pinuspatula Schiede ex Schltdl.et Cham. es una especie endémica en México, con amplia variabilidad fenotípica y genética en diversas características de interés económico y con alto potencial productivo (Farjon, [...]

Objective: To evaluate the residual effect of gypsum in corn crops (2 years after its application in a previously limed soil), as well as the result of a new addition of gypsum combined with potassium in La Frailesca, Chiapas, Mexico. Design/Methodology/Approach: We used a composite factorial design. The initial arrangement (2017) consisted of four levels of gypsum (0, 1.25, 2.5, and 5 t ha-1) and four levels of potassium (0, 60, 120, and 180 kg K2O ha-1). In 2019, the gypsum-treated plots were divided in half: the same amount of gypsum applied in 2017 was added to the first half and the other half was used to assess the residual effect of the initial treatment. The potassium doses were the same as the original. Corn grain yield, pH, exchangeable bases, and aluminum saturation percentage were measured at 0 to 7 and 7 to 14 cm below ground level. Results: The greatest effect on yield was obtained with 2.5 t ha-1 of gypsum applied in 2017; no significant increases were recorded with higher gypsum doses. The exchangeable calcium content and pH level increased, while magnesium, potassium, and aluminum in the soil decreased. Study Limitations/Implications: Suspected presence of Tar Spot Complex was diagnosed. Findings/Conclusions: An excessive application of gypsum generates an imbalance in exchangeable potassium and magnesium in the soil; therefore, producers must exercise caution in the use of these products as part of their fertilization plan.

La caracterización de las distribuciones diamétricas proporciona información sobre la estructura de un rodal y ayuda en la planeación de los tratamientos silvícolas en masas forestales bajo manejo. Se presenta la evaluación de la función Weibull para caracterizar las distribuciones diamétricas en masas mezcladas de especies del género Pinus. Se usaron 59 parcelas permanentes (900 [m.sup.2]) para el ajuste y 100 parcelas temporales de inventario forestal (1000 [m.sup.2]) para la validación. El método de momentos resultó mejor para estimar los parámetros de la función Weibull (menor error medio absoluto, menor error medio cuadrático y menor número de parcelas rechazadas con la prueba de Kolmorogov-Smirnov) en comparación con los métodos de máxima verosimilitud y percentiles. Los modelos de predicción de los parámetros con variables del rodal permiten caracterizar y proyectar la distribución teórica de clases diamétricas de manera sencilla y precisa. La curtosis (kurtosis) de la distribución Weibull es menos apuntada con la proyección del número de árboles por categoría diamétrica, la forma de la curva tiende a normalizarse, con una ligera asimetría positiva, mientras que para el área basal la forma de la distribución teórica es más apuntada. La proyección de la distribución Weibull puede ser utilizada para determinar regímenes de manejo forestal o para la regularización de las estructuras diamétricas en masas incoetáneas. Palabras clave: distribución diamétrica, función Weibull, modelo dinámico, predicción de parámetros, recuperación de parámetros. The characterization of the diameter distributions provides information on the structure of a stand and support in the planning of silvicultural treatments in forests with management. We estimated the parameters of location, scale and shape of the Weibull function to characterize the diameter distribution of species mixture of Pinus. We used 59 plots for model fitting (900 [m.sup.2]) and 100 temporary forest inventory plots for validation (1000 [m.sup.2]). The method of moments was better to estimate the parameters of the Weibull function as statistics used to measure the goodness of fit (lower mean absolute error, lower mean square error and fewer rejected plots with Kolmorogov-Smirnov test) compared with maximum likelihood and percentile methods. The prediction models of the parameters with stand variables represent a flexible and simple way to characterize and project the theoretical distribution of diameter classes easily and accurately. The kurtosis of the Weibull distribution has less peakedness with the projection of the number of trees in diameter classes, the shape of the curve tends to normalize and a slight positive skewness, while basal area in the form is more theoretical platykurtic distribution. The projection of the Weibull distribution can be used to determine forest management regimes or to regularize diameter structures in uneven-aged stands. Key words: diameter distribution, Weibull function, dynamic model, parameter prediction, recovery parameters., Dynamic modeling for diameter distribution on Pinus mixed stands in Durango, Mexico INTRODUCCIÓN La modelación y caracterización de las distribuciones diamétricas es de gran importancia en el manejo forestal.

- Abstract
The search for an answer to the contemporary civilizational crisis, makes it necessary to examine recent proposals originated in Native American ideas about Good Living and forms of social responsibility based on an adequate relationship between human societies and nature. This document describes part of the traditional practices of the Mexican indigenous Totonac group in the municipality of Huehuetla, Puebla. Their holistic scientific approach to food production is highlighted, together with established complementarity relations between families and reciprocity towards spiritual entities. These are seen as crucial in maintaining harmony between a productive habitat and communal existence. Participant observation, systematical interviews and surveys were employed as the main methods which allowed the recognition of the sociocultural symbolisms with which the people of Huehuetla interpret their known world. Thus, Tapaxuwan Latamat (Life in Happiness), -the central notion of the Totonac life-, is described and is shown to be buttressed by the experience of coexisting, working, and celebrating the rituality inherent in Nature. This allows them to remain aware of the existence of a living and sacred territory, where even agricultural and livestock practices are exercised as relationships of coexistence and respect of humans with the entities that inhabit and care for the environment and safeguard their sustenance., Diante da crise civilizacional que atravessa a humanidade, é imprescindível relembrar as propostas ameríndias da última década que buscam o bem viver e a responsabilidade social a partir de sua relação com a natureza. Nesse contexto, o documento mostra parte das estruturas tradicionais do grupo indígena mexicano Totonaca do município de Huehuetla, Puebla, destacando sua ciência holística relacionada à produção de alimentos, incluindo as relações de complementaridade entre famílias e reciprocidade diante das entidades extra-humanas como elementos de harmonia que permitem a manutenção do habitat produtivo e a convivência comunitária. Para abordar os simbolismos socioculturais com que os huehuetecas interpretam o mundo conhecido, o trabalho articulou em campo uma série de estratégias metodológicas onde se destacam a observação participante e a sistematização de entrevistas e pesquisas. O modo de vida Tapaxuwan Latamat (Vida em Felicidade) ou Totonaca huehueteca, sustentado a partir da experiência de viver, trabalhar e celebrar o ritualismo que existe na natureza, nos permite relembrar a existência de um território vivo e sagrado, onde mesmo as práticas agrícolas e pecuárias se realizam em relações de respeito e de convivência, que tecem laços entre as entidades que habitam e cuidam do meio ambiente junto aos seres humanos, de forma a garantir a subsistência., Frente a la crisis civilizatoria que vive la humanidad, es indispensable volver la mirada hacia las propuestas amerindias de la última década que procuran el buen vivir y la responsabilidad social a partir de su relación con la naturaleza. En este contexto, el documento, muestra parte de las estructuras tradicionales del grupo mexicano indígena Totonaca del municipio de Huehuetla, Puebla, resaltando su ciencia holística relacionada con la producción de alimentos, incluyendo las relaciones de complementariedad entre familias y de reciprocidad frente a entes extrahumanos, como elementos de armonía que posibilitan el mantenimiento del hábitat productivo y de convivencia comunal. Para abordar los simbolismos socioculturales con los cuales los huehuetecas interpretan el mundo conocido, el trabajo articuló en campo una serie de estrategias metodológicas donde se destacan la observación-participante y la sistematización de entrevistas y encuestas. Se describe entonces a Tapaxuwan Latamat (Vida en Felicidad) o modo de vida Totonaca huehueteca sustentado a partir de la experiencia de convivir, trabajar, y festejar la ritualidad que existe en la naturaleza, permitiéndonos recordar la existencia de un territorio vivo y sagrado, donde incluso las prácticas agrícolas y ganaderas se procuran bajo relaciones de respeto y convivencia, que tejen lazos entre las entidades que habitan y cuidan el medio junto con los seres humanos, en aras de asegurar la subsistencia.

Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis causes bacterial wilt and canker disease of tomato. The objectives of this research were i) to characterize and identify the most aggressive Cmm in Chignahuapan, Puebla, ii) to evaluate the tolerance in two phenological stages of 10 tomato varieties to infection by CP_Cmm-1 in the greenhouse and the in vitro sensitivity of the bacteria to bactericides. 12 Cmm isolates were collected from tomato plants and a strain (CP_Cmm-1) with greater aggressiveness was selected according to the time of manifestation of symptoms in plants of var. Reserva. Afterward, the strain was inoculated by cutting with scissors embedded in a suspension with 3 x 108 UFC mL-1 in two phenological stages (at five and 10 true leaves). Symptoms were evaluated for 30 days after inoculation. Additionally, the sensitivity of CP_Cmm-1 to eight commercial bactericides in vitro was evaluated. The results showed that the CP_Cmm-1 strain was identified with 97% similarity with the API20 E system, positive with DASELISA, and by PCR it showed 96.6% identity with Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis. The Saher variety showed greater tolerance to infection (* = p≤0.05) both in the stage of five and 10 leaves; the varieties Sv4401, Nápoles, and Súper óptimo showed greater susceptibility in the five-leaf stage. The Sv4401 variety was highly susceptible in both stages. Neither variety was resistant to infection by CP_Cmm-1. The use of the Sahel variety and kasugamycin could reduce the damage of this bacteria. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
In Mexico there are tree species, specifically, the group of conifers, which allow to analyze and reconstruct the climatic variations of the past of one or more geographical regions. The objective of this study was to determine the dendrochronological response potential of Abies guatemalensis Rehder. to climatic variability in Ixtlán de Juárez, Oaxaca. Earlywood, latewood and total ring chronologies of 206 years (1810-2015) were developed. The seasonal correlation analysis revealed a direct relationship between the residual RWI chronology with the winter-spring precipitation (r = 0.67, p < 0.01) and an indirect relationship with the maximum spring temperature (r = -0.42, p < 0.01) of the current year of growth. Using a linear regression model, the accumulated precipitation from February to April was reconstructed over the last 136 years (1880-2015), which explained 44% of the variability of the local meteorological records of the calibration period (1952-2010). The driest periods occurred in the 1880´s, 1900´s, 1940´s, 1970´s, 1980´s, 1990´s and 2000´s. The spectral analysis of the reconstruction showed quasi-cyclic periodicity of 2.2 years and 3.8 years, indicating an association with El Niño-Southern Oscillation. The sensitivity of the species to climatic variations reflected in the thickness of its growth rings, suggests that A. guatemalensis has potential for hydroclimatic reconstructions, which will allow to extend in time the instrumental records for broader analyses of fluctuations in the climate and its trends in this region of the country., En México existen especies arbóreas, específicamente, el grupo de las coníferas, las cuales permiten analizar y reconstruir las variaciones climáticas del pasado de una o varias regiones geográficas. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar el potencial de respuesta dendrocronológica de Abies guatemalensis Rehder a la variabilidad climática en Ixtlán de Juárez, Oaxaca. Se desarrollaron cronologías de madera temprana, de madera tardía y de anillo total de 206 años (1810-2015). El análisis de correlación estacional señaló una relación directa entre la cronología RWI residual con la precipitación de invierno-primavera (r = 0.67, p < 0.01) y una relación indirecta con la temperatura máxima de primavera (r = -0.42, p < 0.01) del año actual de crecimiento. Mediante un modelo de regresión lineal se reconstruyó la precipitación acumulada de febrero a abril, de los últimos 136 años (1880-2015), el modelo explicó 44% de la variabilidad de los registros meteorológicos locales del período de calibración (1952-2010). Los períodos más secos ocurrieron en las décadas 1880, 1900, 1940, 1970, 1980, 1990 y 2000. El análisis espectral de la reconstrucción mostró una periodicidad cuasi-cíclica de 2.2 años y 3.8 años, indicando una asociación con el fenómeno ENSO. La sensibilidad de la especie a variaciones climáticas reflejadas en el grosor de los anillos de crecimiento, sugiere que A. guatemalensis tiene potencial para reconstrucciones hidroclimáticas, lo que permitirá extender en el tiempo los registros instrumentales para análisis más amplios de fluctuaciones en el clima y sus tendencias en esta región del país.

The hypothesis was that the level of sexual experience and reproductive status of ewes affect the time that rams dedicate to courtship. Ewes (n = 40) were separated into four groups according to their reproductive status: maiden, empty, under continuous and restricted suckling ewes. Rams (n = 8) were separated into four groups according to their sexual experience: experienced-I and -II and inexperienced-I and -II. Each group of ewes was exposed at the same time to a different group of rams at 10-12 h intervals for 22 days, an injection of prostaglandin was given to ewes at the end of this period. The response variables were the time that each group of rams spent courting each group of ewes during the first 22 days of the experiment and the number of ewes from each group that showed estrous behavior during and after the 22 days of the experiment. Sexually inexperienced rams spent more time courting maiden ewes than any other group of ewes (p ≤ 0.05) (39.59 ± 3.01, 29.41 ± 3.01, 26.31 ± 3.01 and 23.36 ± 3.01 minutes for the maiden, continuous, restricted and empty groups, respectively). Experienced rams dedicated more time to courting the group of empty ewes (p ≤ 0.05) (13.55 ± 3.01, 17.68 ± 3.01, 14.9 ± 3.01 and 20.05 ± 3.01 minutes for the maiden, continuous, restricted and empty groups, respectively). Expression of estrous behavior was affected (p ≤ 0.05) by the reproductive status of the ewes during the first 22 days of the experiment; the higher difference was in favor of ewes from the empty group. In addition, a higher display of estrous behavior was observed after prostaglandin injection (p ≤ 0.05). In conclusion, the level of sexual experience and the reproductive status of the ewes affects the time that rams spend in courtship. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
The escamol ant (L. apiculatum Mayr) is important economically for rural communities. In four localities of the Potosino-Zacatecano High Plateau, escamol ant nests were identified and their yield was determined, as well as their relation to the habitat and the population size of their colonies during the 2010 harvest of escamoles. In the nests registered the following variables were evaluated: condition of the nest, quality of the nest, amount of ants (scarce, regular and abundant), type of nesting substrate, and escamol yield. The condition of the nests was compared through Indexes of Relative Abundance, Relative Density. To determine the association between quality of the nest and amount of ants, the Observation Frequencies (OF) were used, and the independent contingencies tables of c2. To determine the effect of the nesting substrate and the escamol yield (clean weight in g), ANOVA was performed. Seventy-seven (77) nests were found; the condition of the nest that predominated was “disturbed” (79 %), with an average relative density of 4.14 nests km-1. The OF and the c² analysis identified a higher relation (3.47) between scarce amount of ants-bad quality and regular amount of ants-very good quality (2.06) of the nest (p=0.001999). The ANOVA identified a relationship between the nesting substrate and the escamol yield (p=0.0013), with a higher yield in the nopal nesting substrate (36 %)., La hormiga escamolera (L. apiculatum Mayr) es importante económicamente para las comunidades rurales. En cuatro localidades del Altiplano Potosino-Zacatecano, durante la recolecta de escamoles 2010, se identificaron nidos de la hormiga escamolera, y se determinó su rendimiento, su relación con el hábitat y su tamaño poblacional de sus colonias. En los nidos registrados se evaluaron las variables: condición del nido, calidad del nido, cantidad de hormigas (escasa, regular y abundante), tipo de sustrato de anidación y rendimiento de escamol. La condición de nidos se comparó mediante Índices de Abundancia Relativa, Densidad Relativa. Para determinar la asociación entre la calidad del nido y la cantidad de hormigas se utilizaron las Frecuencias de Observación (FO) y tablas de contingencias independientes de c2. Para determinar el efecto del sustrato de anidación y el rendimiento del escamol (peso limpio en g) se realizó un ANOVA. Se registraron 77 nidos; la condición del nido que predominó fue la “perturbada” (79o%), con una densidad relativa promedio de 4.14 nidos km-1. Las FO y el análisis de c² identificaron una mayor relación (3.47) entre una cantidad de hormigas escasa-mala calidad y una cantidad regular de hormigas-muy buena calidad (2.06) del nido (p=0.001999). El ANOVA identificó una relación entre el sustrato de anidación y el rendimiento de escamol (p=0.0013), con un mayor rendimiento en el sustrato de anidación nopal (36 %).

- Abstract
Due to their effect on wood quality, branching traits have an important economic impact in forest plantations. The potential for including these traits in a tree-breeding program depends on their heritability and their genetic relationships with productivity of trees. The objective of the study was to estimate the repeatability of genetic parameters for branching traits in Pinus patula progenies at 7 years and 10 years of age, and their genetic relationship with growth rate of trees. Branching (number of whorls, branch number, diameter and angle, and branching defects) and growth (stem height, diameter and volume) traits were evaluated in 84 open-pollinated families. The data obtained was used to estimate heritability as well as genetic, phenotypic and age-age correlations of traits. Genetic control of branching traits varied from null to moderate (0.00 ≤ h2 i ≤ 0.23; 0.00 ≤ h2 f ≤ 0.42), but it was stable at both ages. Branching traits with genetic variation showed a favorable genetic structure with growth traits. Number of whorls and adjusted branch diameter had a negative correlation (-0.60 ≤ rg ≤ -0.01), and branch angle a positive correlation (0.14 ≤ rg ≤ 0.47) with growth rate. Repeatability of genetic structure for all branching and growth traits was high, in terms of age-age correlations (0.58 ≤ rg ≤ 0.94; 0.83 ≤ rpf ≤ 1.00) and the correlation coefficient between the matrices of genetic and phenotypic correlations at both ages (r ≥ 0.86). Individual or family selection to increase productivity in this population would also improve branching traits on trees (fewer whorls and thin branches with wider angle), and thus wood quality., La ramificación de los árboles tiene un impacto económico importante en las plantaciones forestales, ya que afecta la calidad de la madera. La posibilidad de incorporar estas características en un programa de mejora genética depende de su heredabilidad y estructura genética con la productividad de los árboles. El objetivo del estudio fue estimar la repetibilidad de los parámetros genéticos de las características de ramificación en progenies de Pinus patula a 7 años y 10 años de edad, así como su relación genética con la tasa de crecimiento de los árboles. Las características de ramificación (número de verticilos, número, diámetro y ángulo de ramas, y presencia de defectos en la ramificación) y crecimiento (altura, diámetro y volumen del tronco) se evaluaron en 84 familias de polinización libre. Con estos datos se estimó la heredabilidad y las correlaciones genéticas, fenotípicas y edad-edad de las características. El control genético de las características de ramificación varío de nulo a moderado (0.00 ≤ h2 i ≤ 0.23; 0.00 ≤ h2 f ≤ 0.42), pero fue estable en las dos edades. Las características de ramificación con variación genética mostraron una estructura genética favorable con las de crecimiento. El número de verticilos y el diámetro de ramas ajustado tuvieron una correlación negativa (-0.60 ≤ rg ≤ -0.01), y el ángulo de ramas una correlación positiva (0.14 ≤ rg ≤ 0.47), con el crecimiento de los árboles. La repetibilidad de la estructura genética de las características de ramificación y crecimiento de los árboles fue alta, en términos de las correlaciones edad-edad (0.58 ≤ rg ≤ 0.94; 0.83 ≤ rpf ≤ 1.00) y del coeficiente de correlación entre las matrices de correlaciones genéticas y fenotípicas en las dos edades (r ≥ 0.86). La selección individual o entre familias para aumentar la productividad en esta población causaría mejoras en la ramificación (menor número de verticilos y ramas más delgadas, con ángulo mayor) y, por lo tanto, en la calidad de la madera.

Background: a concern for breeders is whether an animal ranking based on genetic evaluations is similar to that obtained from show-ring judging. Objective: to determine the association between rankings for Braunvieh (BR) and Brown Swiss (BS) cattle of Mexico based on show-ring judging and their respective expected progeny differences (EPDs) or predicted transmitted abilities (PTAs). Methods: ranking values from judging were transformed using the rankit transformation. For each breed, Pearson correlation analyses were performed between the transformed rank values of the animals obtained from judging at the show-ring and their EPD or PTA values. Results: using the complete databases, in both breeds the correlation coefficient estimates were low (

Background: a concern for breeders is whether an animal ranking based on genetic evaluations is similar to that obtained from show-ring judging. Objective: to determine the association between rankings for Braunvieh (BR) and Brown Swiss (BS) cattle of Mexico based on show-ring judging and their respective expected progeny differences (EPDs) or predicted transmitted abilities (PTAs). Methods: ranking values from judging were transformed using the rankit transformation. For each breed, Pearson correlation analyses were performed between the transformed rank values of the animals obtained from judging at the show-ring and their EPD or PTA values. Results: using the complete databases, in both breeds the correlation coefficient estimates were low (<0.18) but different from zero (p<0.05). The correlation coefficient considering PTAs for milk yield in BS was slightly higher than those obtained for any EPD for growth traits in BR. Correlations in adult animals (0.18 to 0.23) were different from zero (p<0.05) and higher than those of young animals or calves, while those within males or females were similar. Correlations within years of judging in the show-ring were variable and did not indicate any specific trend. Conclusions: show-ring rank results are associated with genetic evaluation of animals, although the magnitude is low. Selection of breeding animals based on show-ring judgment could be used as a complementary tool to genetic evaluation., Antecedentes: uma preocupação dos criadores é se a classificação dos animais baseada em avaliações genéticas é similar na pista de julgamento. Objetivo: determinar a associação entre a classificação de animais baseada no julgamento em pista e suas respectivas diferenças esperadas na progênie (EDPs) o habilidades de transmissão preditas (PTAs), para as animais Braunvieh (BR) e Brown Swiss (BS) do México. Métodos: os valores de classificação dos animais durante o julgamento foram transformados por meio da metodologia rankit. Para cada raça, análises de correlação de Pearson foram realizadas entre os valores de classificação transformados obtidos pela avaliação na pista de julgamento e seus valores de EPD o PTA. Resultados: usando a base de dados completa, em ambas as raças os coeficientes de correlação foram baixos (<0,18) e diferentes de zero (p<0,05). O coeficiente de correlação considerando as PTAs para produção de leite na BS foi ligeiramente maior que os obtidos com qualquer EPD das características de crescimento na BR. Correlações em animais adultos (0,18 a 0,23) foram diferentes de zero (p<0,05) e mais elevadas do que aquelas de animais jovens ou bezerros; enquanto que para as fêmeas e os machos foram semelhantes. Correlações por anos na pista de julgamento foram variáveis e sem tendência específica. Conclusões: a classificação de animais usando os resultados na pista de julgamento e as avaliações genéticas estão associadas, mas em baixa magnitude. A seleção de animais baseada nos resultados na pista de julgamento pode usar-se apenas como ferramenta complementar à avaliação genética., Antecedentes: una preocupación de los criadores es si la jerarquización de los animales basada en evaluaciones genéticas es similar a la del juzgamiento en la pista. Objetivo: determinar la asociación entre la jerarquización de animales con base en el juzgamiento en pista y sus respectivas diferencias esperadas en la progenie (EPDs) o habilidades de transmisión predicha (PTAs), para animales Pardo Suizo Europeo (BR) y Americano (BS) de México. Métodos: los valores jerárquicos del juzgamiento fueron transformados usando la transformación rankit. Para cada raza, análisis de correlación de Pearson fueron realizados entre los valores jerárquicos transformados de los animales obtenidos del juzgamiento en la pista y sus valores de EPD o PTA. Resultados: usando las bases de datos completas, en ambas razas los coeficientes de correlación estimados fueron bajos (<0,18) y diferentes de cero (p<0,05). El coeficiente de correlación considerando las PTAs para producción de leche en BS fue ligeramente mayor que los obtenidos con cualquier EPD de las características de crecimiento en BR. Las correlaciones en animales adultos (0,18 a 0,23) fueron diferentes de cero (p<0,05) y mayores que las de animales jóvenes o becerros; mientras que para hembras y machos fueron similares. Correlaciones por año de juzgamiento en pista fueron variables y sin tendencia específica. Conclusiones: la jerarquización de animales usando los resultados de juzgamiento en la pista y las evaluaciones genéticas están asociadas pero en baja magnitud. La selección de animales con base en su juzgamiento en pista puede usarse como herramienta complementaria a la evaluación genética.
