    Notes: Abstract There are many species in which groups of individuals encountered in the field are known to consist of mixtures of full-sibling families. We describe a statistical technique, based on the use of random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR) markers, that allows for the estimation of the number of families contained in these groups. We test the technique on full-sibling families of the mosquito Aedes aegypti, a species that distributes its eggs among several locations. Mixtures of 10 families with 15 individuals per family were analyzed using 40 RAPD-PCR loci amplified by 5 primers. Our analysis accurately estimated the number of families. The technique was accurate when the number of families was small or when family sizes were small and variable.

    Notes: Abstract The density-density plot of the critical lines of the van der Waals equation at the van Laar point is analyzed through its algebraic properties. It is shown that this curve is an irreducible expression of the fifth degree of genus one. In addition, we show the topology of the second branch, i.e., theT=0 solution, which will interact with the first branch as soon as the energy parameters are slightly different from the van Laar values. Finally, we analyze the behavior of the van der Waals equation near the point at which liquid-liquid separation takes place.
