A Report on Micro-invertebrates Associated with Littoral Macrophytes in Kagzipura Lake
The present study deals with micro-invertebrates associated with littoral macrophytes of kagzipura reservoir from January to December 2009.During the present study species of Protozoa, Rotifera, Copepoda, Cladocera and Ostracoda along with Sponges, Bryozoa. Nematodes and Insect larvae are recorded. This study will be helpful to understand the real picture of community structure of limnetic ecosystem
Record of freshwater gastrotricha from Marathwada region
ABSTRACT Gastrotricha is generally less studied phylum in India and information about its diversity and density is scanty. The present paper reports occurrence of Polymerurus nodicaudus and Chaetonotus elegans species of Gastrotricha in periphytic habitat of Kagzipura Lake, District Aurangabad, Maharashtra. This is the first report on gastrotrich from this region

An assessment of bryozoan (Phylactolaemata) fauna of Kagzipura Lake, Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India
Freshwater Bryozoa is one of the less explored or ignored animal groups from India. Kagzipura Lake, a rainwater fed water body was surveyed for three years to understand the diversity and distribution of bryozoan fauna. The present study depicts four Phylactolaemata bryozoans species as Rumarcanella vorstmani, Plumatella casmiana, Lophopodella carteri and Swarupella divina. The manuscript provides brief descriptions of these species, photomicrographs of statoblasts using scanning electron microscopy and colony characteristics. </div
A Report on Bryozoan Fauna of Jayakwadi Bird Sanctuary, Maharashtra, India
The study attempts to understand the freshwater Bryozoan fauna of the Jayakwadi Bird Sanctuary, Maharashtra, India. The samples were collected and were identified based on colony morphology and floatoblast morphometry. Seven species belonging to the genus Lophopodella, Plumatella, Rumarcanella, and Hislopia were recorded. The study added valuable information on faunal resources in the Jayakwadi Bird Sanctuary
An Overview of Lewis Blood Group
This review summarises the history of the Lewis blood group, the inheritance and biochemistry of Lewis antigens and antibodies, and their clinical significance. Lewis antigens are found on RBCs, other tissues like the pancreas, stomach, intestine, etc., and bodily fluids like saliva. Two independent genes, FUT2 and FUT3, synthesise fucosyltransferases, which determine Lewis blood group genotypes. There are six genotypes (Lea, Leb, Leab, LebH, Aleb, BLeb) and four phenotypes [Le (a+b+), Le (a+b-), Le (a-b+), Le (a-b-)]. Two red-cell Lewis blood groups are Lewis negative and Lewis positive. As Lewis antigens are soluble and can be neutralised by recipient antibodies, Lewis antibodies are deemed insignificant. Clinically, Lewis antigens are associated with coronary heart disease, ischemic heart disease, rotavirus, Helicobacter pylori infection, etc
