The need to increase the autonomy of Ukraine’s financial system makes it advisable to undertake a series of activities aimed at consolidation of the banking system, development of the non-banking financial institution’s sector, increasing public and business confidence in the country’s financial sector. The formation of regional innovation clusters in the financial sector is seen as a major measure of improving the financial system’s condition. Therefore, the purpose of the article was to develop a system of directions for improving the legal regulation of the formation and development of regional innovation clusters in the financial sector of Ukraine. In the article, a system of indicators for determining financial clusters in the regions of Ukraine is determined using the method of expert assessments. 20 experts from the regional offices of the Ministry of Communities and Territories of Ukraine were experts. The basic methods of the research were clustering methods and Kohonen maps, on the basis of which associations (clusters) of objects (regions) by the level of innovative activity in the financial sphere of Ukraine were selected. According to the results of the Kohonen map, according to the indicators of 2018, for all administrative and territorial units of Ukraine 4 clusters were determined according to the level of innovative development of the financial sector. The feasibility of creating innovative clusters was assessed by calculating the synergistic effect, where the gross regional product (GRP) of the administrative-territorial unit was used as the resultant indicator. With the help of the production function, the priority of influence of indicators of activity of financial clusters of synergetic effect on GRP of the administrative-territorial unit was empirically established. Multivariate regression analysis was used to solve the production function in the study. Regression models for cost-effectiveness assessment have been developed to create regional innovation clusters of the financial sector in Ukraine. Economically advantageous, which brings a synergistic effect to the development of regions innovative financial clusters have been identified. The main gaps in the regulatory regulation of the formation and development of regional innovation clusters in the financial sector of Ukraine are substantiated. The system of measures for improvement of regulatory legal regulation of development of regional innovative clusters of the financial sector is substantiated and presented. The practical implementation of the results of the scientific research will help to create qualitatively new integration associations of financial and credit institutions, the purpose of which is to develop new financial instruments and new schemes for financial transactions in Ukraine.

The decentralization is not a new phenomenon for Ukraine. The processes, directed to establish and to develop the local self-government according to European model, going away from complete subordination of local power to the state power during Soviet times, were activated since the state acquired the independence.

The purpose of article is to study how the processes for decentralization of power, finances, etc. are run under conditions of financial, economical and political crisis that take place in Ukraine and countries of Europe.

The local self-government and decentralization of power shall ideally have the connection with the territorial community. The decentralization of power in Ukraine is not the aspiration of territorial community but the attempt to remove someone from power, to divide the power, being received, between other people.

It is necessary to establish the regulatory background for development of local self-government, as well as to work out and to implement the norms for division of receipts from general state taxes and duties into practice.

In our opinion, the abovementioned vision is not only the understanding of decentralization but the understanding of local self-government itself. When the processes, related to development of rights at territorial communities or other territorial formations, start in the totalitarian country, where the real local self-government is absent, in this case one can speak about decentralization of power. That is to say, the state transfers the part of its functions to the communities. If the local self-government already exists, if the budget legislation assigns the corresponding receipts (assigned, own, regulating incomes) to the budgets of different levels, if the will is implemented in communities (through elections, referendums), so, this means that the power is already decentralized.

There is a need for identified potential threats from such positive at first sight processes. Because there is the possibility to receive the additional financial resources directly from state budget (budget and fiscal decentralization). Namely this is the main purpose to establish the united territorial communities. And here exclusively the populism slogans are that the purpose of such newly established communities is to approach the services to population, availability of residents in territorial community to solution of issues of local importance, etc. From the other hand, decentralization – this is what the ones who want more power are covered, because the power is money.

The relevance of the study is due to the need for changes in the methodology and organization of financial and information support for the activities of business entities taking into account modern socio-economic transformations.

It has been established that awareness of limited resources and the introduction of programs for their conservation, ensuring the harmonious development of mankind has an impact on the conduct of economic activity. In addition, the need for systematic research aimed at creating modern information support for an environmentally-oriented enterprise management system is maximally connected with the need for close cooperation with international financial organizations, among which are comparability and objectivity of indicators. This confirms the importance of reflecting the above trends in the accounting methodology — a system that generates information about the results of an enterprise.

The article substantiates that the formation of a modern system of financial and information support for business activities aimed at the conservation and rational use of natural resource potential at the micro level will minimize financial risks associated with environmental changes, and at the macro level it will help to achieve the goals of environmentally sustainable development and implementation of state programs environmental safety of Ukraine. The main global forms of non-financial reporting are analyzed, as well as the domestic Management Report for the publication of information on environmental aspects of economic activity. Given the recommendations of the International Federation of Accountants on the dissemination of the use of integrated reporting, considerable attention is focused on the study of the reflection in it of the environmental components of the enterprise. It was found that based on integrated reporting, not only climate change strategies are formed, but also information on how climate change affects the enterprise’s business strategy and its ability to create value. Thus, integrated reporting formalizes the process of building strategies. Building an enterprise management system based on long-term strategies will not only reduce climate risks, but also create better models for building business structures, increase the stability of capital markets and global financial stability.

It is proved that the development of modernization tools for the domestic financial accounting system, the introduction of environmentally oriented accounting systems will, in addition to increasing the quality of accounting and analytical information, achieve global sustainable development goals and ensure environmental safety, stimulate the subjects of the domestic economy to protect, reproduce and rational use of natural resources.

Due to the low level of the competition of Ukrainian education in the global educational space, to the inefficiency of the model of financing to pedagogical activity in higher education, the issue to improve the legislative and regulatory framework for financing of pedagogical activity has been actualized. It is in order to achieve the goals of reform in higher education and the main missions of higher education institutions that it is necessary to ensure a qualitative updating of the legal framework in the field of higher education financing, in particular for the provision of pedagogical activities. In view of this, the aim of this article is to substantiate the directions for improving the legal framework of financing quality of pedagogical activity in higher education in Ukraine in the present conditions. In the course of the research on the basis of literary generalization, the main indicators of the effectiveness of pedagogical activity in higher education and the shortcomings of the legislative base of its financing have been determined. Based on factor analysis and performance indicators for 2000—2019, the prioritization of factors effectiveness of the pedagogical activity has been determined and the impact of funding sources on the factors of pedagogical effectiveness in higher education. Using the autoregressive method, vector autoregressive models of the impact of financial support on pedagogical effectiveness has been formulated. The peculiarities of the influence of the sources of educational financing on the factors of the effectiveness of pedagogical activity have been argued. With the using of structural and logical modeling, the model of improving the regulatory framework of the regulation of the quality of higher education was proposed, have been taking into account the nature of the impact of the level of financing to the effectiveness of the pedagogical activity. The model proposed was based on the regulation of the main educational normative of legal acts for the introduction of the principles of the model of financing pedagogical activity using performance-based financing indicators. The results of this theoretical and empirical research have scientific value and applied character. The practical implementation of the proposed measures would become a basis of the formation of a decent and progressive legal framework for the implementation of an effective model of financing pedagogical activities. This would help to improve the quality of higher education in Ukraine, stimulate higher education institutions to form a new model of behavior — quality and efficiency above all.
SOCIAL POLICY MODERNIZATION: CONTROVERSY OF THE HUMANITARIAN AND FINANCIAL DIMENSIONS

Published: August 2020

Social policy in Ukraine requires a deep reform, a new paradigm in which exercising of the rights to social protection would be considered and function as a mechanism of sustainability support for the social system. Within the general problem of social policy modernization we point out an aspect related to the fact that rather often solving of social problems is replaced with populistic imitation as the result of critical shortage of financial and organizational resources as well as absence of any conceptual vision of the mechanism to be used to mobilize such resources. The goal of the article is to identify the ways of coordinating high humanitarian goals of social policy with real financial opportunities of the Ukrainian state. Realization of the fact that the country cannot afford to implement social programs fixing the current state of arts and creating obstacles on the way to structural changes in the economy should be the starting principle of social policy modernization. Transition from «social costs» policy to «social investment» policy, encouragement of the behavior of citizens that would promote economic effectiveness of the country is required. However, even in case the best, most fair models of national product re-distribution are applied, that will not adequately solve current problems. Since the main issue is what resources will be mobilized by the state to achieve social re-distribution and using what methods it will achieve this. We substantiate that the system of progressive taxation with parallel systemic changes in the fiscal policy, effective campaign against tax evasion could be the most effective tool for expanding budget finance base for the social domain. Another social policy mechanism is the system of social insurance, developed over the years of independence, primarily directed at quick response to numerous available challenges, sometimes, of force majeure nature. Its reform requires a comprehensive social insurance concept, reconciliated with the wage system, tax system, labour market policy, and demographic situation.

The topic of the present paper is a search for the functional methods of bank management in the period of political and social transformation of society. The objective of the research is substantiation of the necessity for the government to have its own banks in order to exercise its functions and provide guarantees of stability in the state under the unfavorable conditions of a conflict of interests when the state is both the ‘regulator of the financial services market’ and the ‘bank owner’.

The analysis conducted in the paper on the benefits and losses due to the state ownership of banks has shown: vulnerability of the Ukrainian banks to political pressure; lobbying for the interests of systemic commercial banks and their obtaining of preferences or special terms; excessive budget expenditures for capitalization of failing systemic banks.

The experience of developed economies has been researched with an analysis of shortcomings, mistakes and prospects of state-owned bank management in different countries; banking market regulation methods and tools have been systematized. The paper focuses on the measure of nationalization, which was applied by many advanced countries; the impact of nationalizing important systemic banks is grounded, with an emphasis on the decisive role of nationalization in the transition period. It has been determined that many of the factors leading to bank nationalization are closely related to the problems of government regulation of the banking sector.

A conclusion has been made that in many countries the mechanisms for corporate regulation of state- or community-owned property do not even exist or are underdeveloped, and therefore, the governments of these countries, having sufficient information and appropriately trained specialists, should be responsible for all the socio-economic processes in the state. These considerations should be translated into elaboration of a mechanism for corporate governance of strategic public property objects. A corporate governance reform involves creation of competent and independent supervisory boards that would minimize a possible impact of politicians and public officials on the operating activities of banks.

The paper proposes an assessment and analysis of the dynamics of the state of personnel security and the effectiveness of its management on the basis of integral indicators of the development level, which allows to obtain an equal quantitative assessment of the development dynamics in a certain area in the form of an integrated rating indicator. The study of the components of the diagnostics at the general level of bank personnel safety in the work there was carried out by distinguishing the following system-forming elements on the basis of changing the range of relevant integral indicators, namely: the level of the staff’s competition in the banking market, which can become three states-rigid, regulated and perfect; the commercial bank’s personnel safety, which is classified as high, sufficient, medium and low; the environmental factors’ influence level that can have a destabilizing, neutral and positive impact; the environmental factors’ influence level is classified by the degree of influence-aggressive, moderate, weak.The model implementation selecting the strategy to ensure personnel security is based on the construction of the strategic priorities vector to be built on the appropriate coordinate system based on the calculated estimates for each of the studied components. The strategic priorities vector defines the strategy that is appropriate to choose for a commercial bank with the current level of development and the corresponding degree of influence of all the selected factors. In the direction opposite to the vector of strategic priorities there is a strategy that needs to be implemented to improve security by balancing external factors. Four quadrants of strategic personnel security solutions have been built under four simulated scenarios.The paper proposes a comprehensive approach to modeling the scenarios of strategic changes in the commercial bank’s personnel security, which allows to make a comprehensive analysis at all levels of management in the banking market, in particular, to take into account the overall level of the staff’s competition in the banking market, the level of personnel security of a particular commercial bank and to investigate the personnel management systems’ development level in the area of personnel security on the conditions of external and internal factors of influence and to define scenarios of implementation for changes to be tailored to the subject under consideration, taking into account their particularities, capabilities and competitive advantages

Published: August 2020

The authors of the article have analyzed the understanding of ownership as a central entity and the main regulator of economic relations within a joint-stock company. It has been stated that ownership is associated with such categories as «property» and «right», which raises a considerable number of methodological issues originated by the formation of joint-stock companies’ ownership and shareholders rights in relation to the ownership. Particular attention has been paid to the fact that ownership in such a company as an economic category performs a certain function, which consists in the formation of a considerable amount of capital on the most profitable for all persons involved in this process, in order to its maximum profitable use. It has been noted that if we talk about the ownership of a joint-stock company, then it is formed by the issue of shares, and accordingly, the company, which is interested in attracting significant funds, conducts open placement, the proceeds of which are accumulated to use in its business activities. The authors have provided arguments in favor of other positive aspects of stock ownership that make it universal and capable of application wherever there is the need to accumulate significant amounts of funds and limit the scope of liability.

It has been concluded that ownership in a joint-stock company as an economic category performs a certain function, which makes it not only an economic, but also a legal category. This function is to generate a large amount of capital in the most profitable terms for all persons involved in this process, for its maximum profitable use. The category of «stock ownership» is used when referring to the legal regime of ownership in a joint-stock company — the ownership rights of the shareholders for the shares and the ownership rights of the company for the property, which in their implementation intersect and affect one another.

It has been supposed that the most appropriate model, to which stock ownership tends, is confidential property, ideology and practices of trusts. However, it is quite clear that its application in Ukraine in the present state of legal regulation is hardly worth supporting.

It is devoted to the research of methodological approaches aimed at the objective assessment of cost aspects, means and results of implementation of management and technological decisions while balancing the portfolio of innovative projects. It is established that the project portfolio management mechanism is aimed at reconciling project implementation goals with the tactical and strategic orientations of the enterprise with parallel balancing of project budgets and determining the mutual impact of each of them. The article deals with the approach of forming a portfolio of industrial enterprises innovation projects in the aspect of strengthening its market positions on the basis of security-oriented management.

Based on the use of multivariate analysis, a model of influence indicators on the level of economic security of the enterprise has been developed. The using of the hierarchy method algorithm in formulating of recommendations for the selection of innovative projects on the criterion of economic security preserving is justified. The characteristics of the of communication features between economic security and the reputation of the enterprise have been determined and given. The closeness of relationship between the level of economic security and its reputation by using the correlation analysis was assessed. The authors identify the directions of balancing the project portfolio according to the criterion of ensuring a rational level of economic security and in conditions of preventive reputation strengthening. It is proposed to set the priorities of the criteria based on the results of correlation-regression analysis on the impact of factors on the enterprise’s economic security, namely: target efficiency, cost performance, security of financing, investment efficiency, reactive performance. The result of the method application is the formation of strategic recommendations for the selection of innovative projects on the criterion of maintaining economic security.

Розглянуто проблему координації матеріальних i фінансових потоків на оборонних підприємствах у виробництві та доставці потрібного обсягу оборонної продукції у встановлені терміни. Мета статті — теоретичне обґрунтування необхідності узгодження певних суперечностей у потокових процесах на підприємствах і розроблення моделі поступової оптимізації матеріальних та пов’язаних з ними фінансових потоків як необхідної умови забезпечення фінансової безпеки підприємств оборонної промисловості.

Конфлікт інтересів (суперечності) аналізується щодо проходження матеріальних і пов’язаних із ними фінансових потоків, що відбуваються за чинної системи управління на вітчизняних оборонних підприємствах.

Методичною основою дослідження суперечностей потокових процесів підприємства були обрані аналіз і синтез. Економічний потік підприємства умовно розглянуто за характеристиками: обсяг потоку, час потоку і витрати потоку з подальшим урахуванням їхніх характерних якостей, властивостей, взаємозв’язків і суперечностей між ними.

Розроблена методика проектування логістичних рішень на підприємстві, яка передбачає здійснення повної оптимізації за допомогою методу компромісу матеріальних і пов’язаних із цим фінансових потоків. Запропонована імітаційна модель була доведена до впровадження програмного забезпечення та була протестована на оборонних машинобудівних підприємствах Києва.

Для врегулювання суперечностей, що виникають поетапно, встановлено два параметри (час потоку та обсяг потоку) за критеріями: 1) мінімізація витрат на всіх стадіях потоку;2) мінімізація періоду оборотності оборотних коштів — доцільно використовувати метод багатокритеріальної оптимізації.

Вирішення багатокритеріального завдання оптимізації матеріальних і пов’язаних із цим фінансових потоків на підприємстві базується на використанні методу компромісу, який реалізується на основі моделювальних моделей. Запропонована модель складається з п’яти взаємодіючих програмних елементів: модель управління програмою, програма закупівель, транспортна програма, програма складських складів, оцінка варіантів і програма вибору логістичних  рішень.

Для розв’язання вищезазначеної проблеми пропонуємо використовувати метод «лівий нижній кут», який раніше використовувався для вирішення інженерних завдань. Запропонований метод дозволяє розв’язати задачу оптимізації вектора, коли критеріїв два, а кількість розглянутих варіантів — невелика.

The research presents the results of the analysis of measures to support the financial and real sectors, which were implemented by major central banks and governments in response to global bifurcation trends caused by the current suspension of the world economy due to the launching of quarantine programs. There are shown the disproportions of the distribution of stabilizing financial resources and it is emphasized that they are a manifestation of significant interdependence of financial institutions and the state in conditions of their current functional and institutional transformations because of financialization tendencies. The functional transformations of financial institutions are interpreted as an efficiency reduction of their distribution function, because of which the financial resources, avoiding the real sector of the economy, are concentrated in financial markets. The institutional transformations of the state were manifested in the fact that, along with its traditional classical functions of regulation, the mode of the state as an economic agent, which protects its own interests and the interests of its counterparties, became relevant. There are made the conclusions on the existence of ingrained financial and institutional imbalances that develop in the closed space of public and financial liquidity circulation in the article. It is shown the contradictions of the policy of quantitative easing in conditions of low and negative interest rates, which consists in the growth of financialization tendencies. It is concluded the need for targeted and controlled infusion of liquidity in conditions of instability. It is substantiated the expanded targeting of the stability of monetary unit as the most adequate monetary policy to the conditions of global instability.

The formation of a stable financial system is one of the important tasks facing the state. The lack of a comprehensive strategy to strengthen Ukraine’s financial security leads to fragmentation and insufficient predictability of the country’s financial policy. This directly threatens Ukraine’s national security and economic sovereignty. The author’s developments in the directions and mechanisms of ensuring the financial security of the state are aimed at forming a strategic vision of the development of the domestic financial market, promoting consolidation and effective interaction of state authorities, first of all the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine, the National Bank of Ukraine, the Committee on Financial Policy and Banking of the Verkhovna Rada Ukraine and society. This article provides for the study of factors affecting the financial security of the state, the comparative analysis of approaches to the definition of financial security used in foreign and domestic practices. As a result of the analysis, a comprehensive signal system of indicators of financial security assessment of the state will be proposed in scientific work, principles of its strengthening will be developed, mechanisms for ensuring financial stability in the context of strengthening the financial security of the state are substantiated. The results of the evaluation will serve as a basis for substantiation of strategic directions, identification of instruments and measures for ensuring the financial security of the state by the bodies of macroprudential supervision, determination of ways of development of competition in the financial market. Appropriate developments will facilitate timely and adequate management decision making in the context of high volatility of the economic space, which will ultimately serve as a basis for strengthening the financial security and development of the Ukrainian economy as a whole. In Ukraine, the financial policy of economic growth is the basis for the development of the state, improving the well-being of the population, establishing new social standards. Financial stability is an important factor in influencing economic development, the social sphere, economic transformation, demographic change, the well-being of society, and financial security as a component of economic security. Against this background, the issue of ensuring the financial security of the country and developing strategic directions for its enhancement is urgent.

RESUMO O presente artigo investiga os fundamentos lógicos da forma social da comunicação no âmbito soviético, reconhecendo a pertinência das categorias da Economia Política da Informação, Comunicação e Cultura para o estudo da comunicação na URSS. Primeiramente foram avaliadas duas interpretações dialéticas da experiência soviética (Arthur, 2016 e Kurz, 1999), a fim de entendê-la como parte de um sistema mundial produtor de mercadorias. Observada a permanência peculiar da forma do capital como substância das relações sociais no contexto soviético, avalia-se em que termos a derivação da forma social da comunicação, sua materialidade e funções (Bolaño, 2000) são pertinentes para uma interpretação da comunicação na URSS.

Natural Resources Globalization and Its Effect on the Indigenous People; Evidence from the Theoretical and Empirical literature: Review
Authors: Abebe Birhane Anagaw
Published: August 2020

The globalized view of natural resource is strictly connected with quantitative measures and strongly depends on expert assessments and assumptions with poorly understanding local knowledge and local facts, finally leads to unreliable conclusion. Hence, this review intends to investigate the globalization of natural resources and its effect on the lives of indigenous people. The study found that the conventional global approach tends to focus on quantitative measures by contrast the local and traditional approach tend to focus on qualitative information. Thus, local tailored forest conservation and management programs create a social environment that allows unique local environmental values to emerge increasing motivational force of environmental values in the conventional science. This reflects that giving recognition to and work with and through local real situations where problems are identified and solutions are determined makes environmental conservation more cost effective and sustainable. Local people believed that resources not only provide material benefits but also other cultural and social values. Indigenous peoples with a historical continuity of resource-use practices often possess a broad knowledge base of the behavior of complex ecological systems in their own localities. This knowledge has accumulated through a long series of observations transmitted from generation to generation. Where indigenous peoples have depended, for long periods of time, on local forests for the provision of a variety of resources, they have developed a stake in conserving, and in some cases, enhancing biodiversity.

Background: Seasonal anestrus, which is controlled by the photoperiod in ewes, limits the ability to the fertility of ewe every time. Therefore, using hormones by vaginal devices is the most effective way of increasing fertility in order to form oestrus during the anestrus period and obtain a high rate of pregnancy. But, vaginal devices may cause a change in the profile and number of bacteria in the uterus and vagina, and thus create an environment suitable for infection. For this reason, identification of bacteria that are the source of infection can be achieved by performing antibiotic susceptibility tests and interpreting them correctly. The purpose of this study was to characterize the effect of intravaginal device-type and treatment-duration on vaginal bacteria count and type and determine the antibiotic susceptibility of vaginal bacterias in ewes after a program of oestrus synchronization. Methods: A total of 90 clinically healthy Kivircik ewes were selected. In order to provide oestrus synchronization during anestrus season (June), CIDR was inserted intravaginally to 45 ewes, the other 45 ewes were progestogen sponges inserted. In both groups remained inserted for 5, 9 and 13 days. While vaginal devices were withdrawal both groups ewes were exposed to intramuscular 350 IU PMSG injection. The mucous samples were collected from all ewes 0, 5, 9 and 13 days at time the IVS or CIDR withdrawal. In samples, bacterial concentration, bacterial identification, and antibiotic susceptibility were determined. Result: The changes in the vaginal flora caused by the vaginal devices favored the development of opportunistic microbiota that could potentially be pathogenic. In the study, after vaginal device withdrawal, the bacteria species most frequently observed in both IVS and CIDR groups were E. coli. According to the results of this study, the first choice of antibiotics for vaginal infections caused by G- agents in ewes should be any of AXC, CEP and CTZ compared to other antibiotics.

Background: The Single Cell Protein (SCP) production technologies arose as a promising way to solve the problem of protein shortage in worldwide, which mainly used in human foods or animal feeds. For future success, the animal proteins are expensive protein source in fish feeds and there has been considerable interest in replacing all or part of the fish meal in aquaculture feeds with SCPs. Collectively, studies indicated that SCPs were suitable ingredients for farmed fishes. The Lactobacillus fermentum strain used in this study was surprising to note a single strain contains 20 amino acids. In this study the strain used and seemed to be ideal in the above respects. Further research on industrial scale production of SCP using this strain using cheaper sources (or) sewage is warranted. Methods: In this field – laboratory investigation during 2015-2016, the soil samples were collected from the Velar estuary, Tamil Nadu. About 25 colonies were selected and inoculated in to MRS broth. The completed preparation was observed under microscope for motility of the bacterium. Different biochemical characteristics test analyzed by using standard protocol. The antimicrobial effects were determined by the agar diffusion method. Finally the biochemical parameters were analyzed by using standard procedure. Result: Our investigation is evident that, the strain very well can be used a probiotic for human and animal nutrition. The isolated strains were found to be non-motile and non-spore farming. Lactobacillus fermentum contains 60-80% of protein, 7-8% of carbohydrate, 2-3% of lipid and 8-9% of nucleic acid contents. The Lactobacillus fermentum strain used in this study showed a high level of inhibitory activity against all the pathogens tested. SCP cannot compete with soya, alfalfa or fish meal. Mushroom production from lignocellulosics seems to be one economical and promising use for SCP.

Background: A reliable method for controlling the sex of farm animals has the potential to revolutionize dairy farming. This can only be achieved by use of a method capable of separating X and Y chromosome bearing spermatozoa at lower cost and causing no significant damages to sperm viability. Realizing significance of buffaloes in Indian dairy farming, present study was aimed to develop appropriate density gradient model for enrichment of X chromosome bearing spermatozoa population in semen of Murrah buffalo bull. Methods: Density gradient centrifugation (DGC) technique was employed for enriching X chromosome spermatozoa in buffalo bull semen using four gradient media viz., Percoll, Optiprep, Ficoll and Sucrose. Percentage enrichment of X chromosome bearing spermatozoa in all the DGC models was determined by SYBR green based Real Time PCR. Result: Our investigations revealed that number of layers and centrifugation speed (g) factors in a density gradient centrifugation model, have significant effect on the percentage enrichment of X chromosome content in semen samples.Three layers, four layers and five layers density gradient centrifugation models showed significant differences (P less than 0.05) in the sex ratio towards X spermatozoa population in semen (61.72%±0.81, 64.55%±0.26 and 67.31±0.33%) respectively. Density gradient centrifugation models with centrifugation speed (g) 200x g and 300x g also showed significant differences (P less than 0.05) in the sex ratio towards X spermatozoa population in semen (66.36%±0.25 and 62.69±0.22%) respectively. Out of all DGC models, Optiprep density gradient model with 5 layers and centrifugation at 200xg (O3) yielded maximum enrichment (72.4%±1.38). In conclusion, O3 poses to be a promising model for enrichment of X spermatozoa in buffalo bull semen.

Background: Harike wetland (31°08¢ N to 31°23¢ N latitudes and 74°90¢ E to 75°12¢ E longitudes) is an internationally important Ramsar site, supports rare, vulnerable and endangered plants, fish and other faunal species. Weed infestation, pollution and encroachment are considered as important threats of its biota thus time series data with respect to fish diversity, catch composition and genetic variability has an utter importance to interpret changes over time. Cyprinidae family of freshwater fishes includes carps is the largest fish family found in Harike wetland comprising around 50% of total fish composition by weight basis and among carps, Rohu (Labeo rohita) is one of the commercially important food fish species available throughout the year and preferred by consumers. As river Beas and Sutlej, two major rivers of Indus river system confluence at Harike thus possibility of variation within fish stock is very high. With this background present study was carried out to evaluate the fish biodiversity and catch composition of Harike wetland. Study also emphasized on biometrics, length –weight relationship and genetic diversity based on mitochondrial marker genes of commercially important food fish Labeo rohita. Methods: Assessment of fish catch composition and diversity were conducted in landing centre adjacent to Harike wetland through Rapid Fisheries Assessment by Market Survey (RFAMS) technique. Fin tissue samples were collected for genetic diversity analysis of L. rohita by cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene sequencing, From the fish genomic DNA a partial fragment of approximately 655bp was PCR amplified by FishF1 (5'-TCAACCAACCACAAAGACATTGGCAC-3') and FishR1 (5'-TCGACTAATCATAAAGATATCGGC AC-3') primer pair. Calculation of intraspecific mean and pairwise distances was performed by MEGA 6.0 software using the K2P parameters Results: Total 30 species of fishes were recorded from Harike wetland and these belong to 14 families and 21 genera. In L. rohita average weight (Wt), total length (TL), standard length (SL) and forked length (FL) were recorded 2600±5.64g (1700-3600 g), 58.2±5.65 cm (51.3-67.6cm), 48.0±8.54 cm (42.5-55.5cm) and 46.0±0.25 cm (38.0-54.5cm), respectively. Biometric study revealed that sufficient numbers of mature L. rohita are available in wetland. L. rohita established negative algometric growth (b= 2.701); thus species became slender as it increased in length. The pairwise distances ranged from 0.00 to 18.49% with a mean ±S.E value of 4.70%±0.40. Total of 9 haplotypes were observed in L. rohita COI sequences. The diversity in haplotype and nucletide values were observed 0.848 and 0.024, respectively. The present study states that L. rohita stocks in Harike wetland are genetically diverse.
