Abstract:
This thesis entitled “Histological ,Histochemical and biochemical characterisation of male morphotypes of macrobrachium rosenbergii(De Man). The giant fresh water prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man) is emerging as a prime candidate species in fresh water aquaculture as a global basis and therefore, receiving much attention in recent years.the present work was aimed at to study the histological variations, if any, in the reproductive system viz. testes, vas deferens including androgenic gland, hepatopancreas and the neurosecretory system viz. eye stalk, brain and thoracic ganglion among the male morphotypes and their transitional stages of M.rosenbergii from growouts. This study was also aimed at to bring out the histochemical variations, if any, in the reproductive system comprising of testes, vas deferens including androgenic gland and the hepatopancreas among the male morphotypes and their transitional stages collected from growouts. Biochemical characterisation of various male morphotyes and their transitional stages have also been attempted in order to find out biochemical evidence, if any, in the morphotypic transformation.Histological study of the testes of three male morphotypes viz., SM, SOC and SBC and their 'transitional stages viz., WOC, tSOC, WBC and OBC have been carried out with a view to unravel the structural and functional differences of the testes, if any, of these morphotypes. Studies on the lipid components viz., cholesterol, phospholipid and triglyceride In the muscle tissue and hepatopancreas have been carried out.

Abstract:
The present thesis critically analyzes the micro level issues that influence the rural household energy behavior in Kerala. The aim of the study is to examine the energy consumption pattern at the household level in rural Kerala and to assess the variations in rural household energy consumption pattern across geo-climatic and socio-economic clusters. The researcher assess the attitudes of the rural households towards energy sources, uses and devices. The study tries to identify the factors influencing the adoption of energy conservation practices and shift to the improved energy

Abstract:
The study is entitled “HUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT
IN HIGHER EDUCATION IN KERALA”. The concept “Human
Resource Development” is of high value in business and industry
and has been used and applied since years. In industry and
business the ‘human’ element is considred as a resource and hence
its development and protection is very essential and inevitable. Of all
the factors of production, human resource is the only factor having
rational faculty and therefore, it must be handled with utmost care.
Right recruitment, right training and right induction followed by
faultless monitoring and welfare measures are but decisive factors in
business and industiy. Altogether there is a constant attention up on
human factor there. But this is not a practice at all in education. So
far there has not been any such measure of care and close watch
and performance analysis of human resource on education front.
This may be the main reason for lack of accountability in the sphere
of education. The present study reveals the importance of
introducing HRD practices in higher educational institutions in
Kerala. In order to promise human capital formation through
education, it is basic requirement. The higher educational
institutions must follow the method of industry and commerce
because education can be treated as an industry in service sector.
There also we can follow the methods of right recruitment, right
training and promotion, delegation, performance analysis and
accountability checking of human resource. HRD is a powerful idea
of transformation of human being into highly productive and
contributing factor The HRD of students is the sum total of HRD of
teachers. Reminding the primordial usage ‘Yatha Raja Thadha Praja’
the quality of faculty resembles in students. The quality of
administrative staff in colleges also affects the quality of higher
education. Hence, it is high time to introduce the managerial method
of HRD with all its paraphernalia in higher educational institutions
so as to assure proper human capital formation in higher education
in India.
