A proper coloring of a graph is an assignment of colors to the vertices of the graph such that adjacent vertices are assigned different colors. A star coloring of a graph G is a proper coloring such that no path on four vertices is a 2-colored. A coloring of the vertices of graph by K-colors is called acyclic provided that no circuit is bi-chromatic. In this paper we discuss about the acyclic coloring of corona of Cn ⊙ K1,3. Pn ⊙ K2 and star coloring of corona of Pn ⊙ K2.Full Text

Biometrics and Bioinformatics, Vol 3, No 8 (2011), Pagination: 374-376Abstract
The pressures on today's system administrators to have secure systems are ever increasing. One area where security can be improved is in authentication and identification. Biometrics provides a promising solution meeting all demands. Biometric identification utilizes physiological and behavioral characteristics to authenticate a person's identity which include facial recognition, fingerprints, palm prints, hand geometry, retinal patterns and iris patterns and signature, voice pattern and key stroke dynamics. Many have suffered from high cost and unsatisfactory error rates. The newer emerging technology IRIS RECOGNITION, which uses the unique patterns of the human iris, overcomes previous shortcomings and provides positive recognition of an individual without contact or invasion, at extremely high confidence levels. The technology is accurate, easy to use, non-intrusive, and difficult to forge and, despite what many people may think is actually quite a fast.

We studied the behavioural responses of female whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) towards headspace volatiles of tomato in the presence of aromatic intercrops, namely coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) and dill (Anethum graveolens L.) using olfactometer bioassays, electrophysiological techniques and field experimentation. Olfactometer studies revealed the repellent nature of dill and coriander. Multiple-choice olfactometer studies revealed less residence time in tomato with coriander (T + Co; 1.33 ± 0.20 min) and tomato with dill (T + D; 1.97 ± 0.30 min) treated arms compared to sole tomato volatile treated arm (3.18 ± 0.35 min). Field studies also supported this trend, where significantly less whitefly incidence was recorded in treatment T + Co (2.34 ± 0.39 per three leaves) or T + D (3.33 ± 0.51 per three leaves) compared to sole tomato crop (5.71 ± 0.75 per three leaves). In coupled gas chromatography-electroantennodetection (GC-EAD) studies, whitefly antenna responded to several compounds of dill and coriander. This study suggests that aromatic plants such as dill and coriander can be used as potential intercrop components in tomatoes to manage B. tabaci and the GC-EAD-identified compounds of dill and coriander will help formulate futuristic semiochemical-based pest management strategies against the whitefly.Keywords

In insects, mating and oviposition are important reproductive behaviours that occur for a limited period in their lifecycle. The physiological age of an insect is crucial for reproductive maturity, mate selection and fitness. To study the effect of age on reproduction, an experiment was conducted to analyse the reproductive behaviour in different aged adults of Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith). The copulation duration varied significantly in different aged adults, with the highest duration of copulation (161.42 ± 16.53 min) in 1-day male (DM) x 3-day female (DF) mating combination and the lowest (85.00 ± 14.31 min) in 4 DM x 4 DF combination. A significant difference in fecundity, hatching percentage (fertility) and oviposition period was observed among the different mating treatments. Fecundity showed a decreasing trend along with the increasing age of the adults, with the highest fecundity (1769.60 ± 181.24 eggs) from 2 DM x 1 DF combination and the lowest (682.86 ± 82.04 eggs) from 4 DM x 4 DF mating combination. Overall, irrespective of male and/or female, an increase in age negatively impacted reproductive fitness. Therefore, any technique that delays the S. frugiperda breeding, such as pheromone-mediated mating disruption, might successfully control the pest. Practically our research information will be useful for the effective behavioural management of S. frugiperda by developing techniques like mating disruption strategies, thereby affecting its reproductive succession.Keywords
