Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences have been widely used to study genetic variability and relationships in many crustacean groups, and these same markers may be incorporated into evaluation studies of shrimp broods and populations. For this purpose we looked at variation in mitochondrial D-loop sequences as an indicator of genetic diversity in shrimp populations from a region of India that represents the main sources of new material for brood stocks. In our study of these populations the overall mean genetic diversity was 0.191. The highest level of genetic diversity (0.357) was observed in the Kakinada population, whereas the lowest diversity (0.0171) was observed in the Nellore population. The results also indicate that overall, the populations along the Andhra Pradesh coast are genetically diverse despite the fact that there is considerable gene flow between them. From the results, it is evident that east cost of India shows high genetic diversity among P. monodon broods and no evidence of loss of diversity due to excessive inbreeding. The fact that the genetic variability of these populations has been maintained, despite ten years of dependence on these broods, shows that at the present time there is no indication of over exploitation 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z http://pucir.inflibnet.ac.in:8080/jspui/handle/123456789/1040 Title: Towards Understanding Civil Society – Government Relationship: the study of Young Mizo Association (YMA) in Mizoram Authors: Ralte, Laldinpuii Abstract: Today, the failure of the government has led the civil society to become active in raising the people centred developmental issues and problems. The civil society through its constituents can play a viable role. Civil society as an entity cannot be inimical to the state as it needs the support and assistance of the government. Similarly, the government will also benefit from the civil society in order to bring about a democratic and just social order. This paper makes an attempt to study YMA which is the largest voluntary developmental organisation in Mizoram and also tries to examine how YMA is seen as one important components of civil society in the context of Mizo society. This paper studies the varied roles played by YMA in the Mizo society and examine the nature of relationship that exists between government and civil society 2017-07-26T00:00:00Z http://pucir.inflibnet.ac.in:8080/jspui/handle/123456789/484 Title: Towards Understanding Civil Society – Government Relationship: the study of Young Mizo Association (YMA) in Mizoram Authors: Ralte, Laldinpuii Abstract: Today, the failure of the government has led the civil society to become active in raising the people centred developmental issues and problems.
