Authors:   Ufa State Petroleum Technological University, Malykh O.E. , Ouattara U.M. ,   Ufa State Petroleum Technological University
Published: September 2023

The energy consumption system of any country, with any type of government, is the basis of national security and a resource for socio-economic development. Creating such a system and ensuring its effective functioning is a complex task, including economic, technical, technological, managerial and political aspects. The object of study is the energy consumption system of the Republic of Côte d'Ivoire. Methods of work – methods of statistical analysis, analysis of scientific literature, analysis of materials provided by government agencies and organizations of the energy sector of the Republic of Côte d'Ivoire and Internet sources were used. The article is devoted to the analysis of the energy consumption system in the Republic of Côte d'Ivoire in order to find mechanisms for the sustainable development of the country's energy sector. The features of the republic's energy consumption are shown in terms of such indicators as primary energy production, energy consumption in households, final energy consumption by sectors of activity and the total volume of energy consumption. It was determined that the most significant features are, firstly, the predominance of biomass energy in providing the primary needs of the population in cooking and heating; secondly, the high dependence of the rural population on wood fuel; thirdly, the reason why households choose woodfuel is poverty. The limitations of the energy consumption system that the country is facing are shown, such as the lack of a financing mechanism and plan, poverty, low levels of education and ineffective legal instruments. The scope of the results obtained – the materials contained in the scientific study can be used by executive authorities that carry out the functions of developing and implementing state policy in the energy sector and preparing proposals for the formation of an energy supply system that is more consistent with the sustainable development goals of the Republic of Côte d'Ivoire, including overcoming poverty while maintaining the energy security of the country. The recovery of the global economy after the coronavirus pandemic, as well as the goals of the "green transition" will require resources, for which the economy of the Republic of Côte d'Ivoire must be prepared
FORMATION OF A SYSTEM FOR ASSESSING THE READINESS OF THE OIL AND GAS BUSINESS FOR ESG-TRANSFORMATION
Authors:   Ufa University of Science and Technology, Kazakova O.B. , Vlasovskikh P.A. ,   Ufa State Petroleum Technological University
Published: September 2023

An urgent issue for the oil and gas industry today is following global trends and principles of environmental friendliness, social orientation and effective management. The approaching new energy transition leaves no choice for large companies to follow current and promising trends to maintain their positions in the future. The need to meet all the proposed social and new economic requirements forces the company to change and transform the existing business model. The purpose of the study, the results of which are presented in the article, is to develop evaluation tools that allow determining the degree of readiness of an oil and gas business company for ESG transformation and to identify exactly what changes are needed, as well as in what way and with what actions they can be achieved. Based on the analysis of current trends and public requests put forward to the oil and gas industry, the priorities of the company's ESG transformation are determined: transformation of production, transformation of the organizational environment, transformation of intra-industry market relations. Their achievement is determined by the company's capabilities, which characterize the financial condition, production infrastructure, corporate governance, organizational environment and intraindustry condition. The composition of indicators characterizing each of these areas was determined taking into account the ESG agenda, as well as the availability of information and the sufficiency of indicators for evaluation. To assess the degree of readiness of the company, it is justified to use an integral convolution of indicators, and to scale the results obtained to obtain not only quantitative estimates, but also verbal characteristics of the company. The theoretical value and novelty of the work is determined by the proposed approach to assessing the readiness of oil and gas companies to transform according to the current ESG trend, taking into account the industry specifics of the companies' activities, differing in the system of evaluation indicators and allowing to determine the key areas of development depending on the current state. The proposed approach was tested on the data of the largest oil and gas companies. The results obtained made it possible to determine the possibilities of practical application of the proposed approach for conducting diagnostic procedures in determining the directions of ESG business transformation, as well as to specify the directions of further research in the subject area under consideration.
ORANG TIONGHOA, PERKEBUNAN GAMBIR, LADA DAN KONTESTASI DI TANJUNGPINANG ABAD KE-19
Authors:   Universitas Jambi, ZS Zulfa Saumia
Published: September 2023

This study examines the relationship between Chinese people, pepper and gambier plantations and contestation in the context of the expansion of Chinese people in Tanjungpinang during the Dutch colonial period. This study reveals the transformation of the Chinese immigrants, originally brought as laborers on plantations owned by Bugis nobles, into plantation owners under Dutch colonial intervention. The research was conducted using historical methods whose analysis was based on primary sources: Koloniaal Verslag, Memorie van Overgave (MvO) and Regeering Almanac voor Nederlandsch-Indie (RAN). The primary sources were carefully analyzed. This research concludes that, in Tanjungpinang, the Chinese had been on Bintan Island since the 15th century together with Zheng He’s expedition. However, the arrival of the Chinese on a large scale occurred in 1740. They came as laborers on the pepper and gambier plantations belonging to the Bugis aristocrats. Political internal and external changes, as well as land and territorial tenure between the Hokkien in Tanjungpinang and Teochiu in Senggarang, added a new narrative to their role as intermediaries, landowners, and coolies in the pepper and gambier plantations. Even though there had been open conflicts between Teochiu and Hokkien in the past caused by Dutch colonial alignments and different interests. However, this conflict can be solved and not affect their important position as the driving force of the economy in Tanjungpinang.
PRAKTIK TEATER POSTDRAMATIK DI INDONESIA
Authors:   Institut Seni Indonesia Padangpanjang, H Afrizal , N Sahrul , Yusril Yusril
Published: September 2023

An article entitled “Practice of Postdramatic Theater in Indonesia” is an examination of postdramatic theater practices in Indonesia in the 1990s to 2000s in Jakarta, Bandung, Yogyakarta, and even West Sumatra. This practice spawned generations that continue to grow and develop through aesthetics based on performance texts instead of conventional drama texts we are more familiar with. Each theater community, postdramatic or otherwise, typically carries out an in-depth exploration and elaboration of all possible bodies of texts and artistic works used as the main materials for performances. This study uses the qualitative method and two sets of theory: historical theory and postdramatic theater theory. Composition process, structure, and texture of postdramatic theater developed by Hans-Thies Lehmann are centered on the elements of text, space, time, body, and media depicted in the works of SAE Theatre, Grave Theater, Black-and-White Payung Theatre, Garage Theatre, and Black-White Art Community.

Published: September 2023

This article offers an interpretation of performance artworks that serve as representations of local identity and values in the period of Indonesian new media artists. By emphasizing on local identity, this article seeks to reveal how artists respond to global challenges through artworks while capturing the aesthetics and values prevailing throughout Nusantara (the Indonesian archipelago). Additionally, this research offers an analysis of the timeline and geographic distribution of performers from the standpoint of the growth of new media art. Data were collected using a variety of methods, including observation, interview, and literature review involving both historical archives and literary works. Findings indicate that the two periods of performance art history, i.e. the early era and the digital age, are historically and geographically separated. Even if globalization has affected arts, local identity has never really disappeared during this time; in fact, it is growing stronger. Representations of the archipelago is a sign of the new emerging artists’ presence in the contemporary international art scene. The influence of local identity in artworks, however, is no longer debatable and can reflect an artist’s self-identification.

En el presente trabajo se muestran los resultados correspondientes a la elaboración de recubrimientos mediante proyección térmica, haciendo uso del proceso de oxígeno-combustible a alta velocidad y de arco eléctrico sobre una aguja de inyección de turbinas Pelton y tubos de calderas respectivamente. Para la obtención de los recubrimientos sobre agujas de turbinas Pelton se empleó como material de proyección carburo de tungsteno de referencia TAS 340 T con una tasa de deposición de 2,7 kg/hora a 15 cm del sustrato correspondiente a un acero inoxidable martensítico. Para los recubrimientos elaborados mediante proyección térmica por arco eléctrico se hizo uso de un alambre tubular de referencia comercial PMET 292 correspondiente a una aleación Fe-Cr depositado sobre tubos de caldera ASTM A192 grado B7 a una tasa de alimentación de 9,9 kg/hora. Mediante la técnica de oxígeno-combustible a alta velocidad se obtuvo un recubrimiento denso y fuertemente adherido al sustrato el cual posee una microestructura fina y homogénea, aumentando la vida útil de la aguja de inyección en turbina Pelton en 11 meses. Por otra parte, el recubrimiento elaborado mediante el proceso de proyección por arco eléctrico obtuvo una rugosidad media aritmética final Ra entre 1,5 y 2,5 µm y una dureza entre 60 y 65 Rc y después de inspecciones año tras año se pudo garantizar una vida útil de los tubos de caldera de por lo menos 5 años. Los resultados obtenidos indican que los recubrimientos depositados mediante oxígeno-combustible a alta velocidad pueden contribuir a la eficiencia en la transformación de energía hidráulica en energía eléctrica, mientras que los recubrimientos elaborados por proyección por arco eléctrico sobre los tubos de caldera pueden ayudar a la eficiencia en la transformación de energía térmica en energía eléctrica.

El presente artículo se encuadra en una investigación sobre el trabajo artístico independiente y el asociacionismo, en tiempos de pandemia y pos pandemia, en la Norpatagonia argentina, esto es, en un circuito lejano a los centros culturales hegemónicos. Nos centraremos en el análisis de un conflicto que estalló en el terreno virtual, un grupo de WhatsApp. Para ello, deberemos partir del estudio de los valores enarbolados por los protagonistas del enfrentamiento. Ello nos permitirá comprender, no sólo la virulencia de los intercambios, sino también los acuerdos previos y posteriores. Pero, también, abordaremos la citada mensajería instantánea, en tanto escenario de disputa y, también, los condicionamientos que produce sobre las lecturas del conflicto realizadas por los/as integrantes del colectivo.
La religión popular como estructurante significativo de la sanación
Authors: Prieto González Tomás Javier
Published: September 2023

El punto de partida del presente trabajo es la forma en que opera el catolicismo popular como sustrato de ideas, creencias y prácticas en la actividad sanadora de las santiguadoras y curanderos de Canarias. A partir de ahí se analiza la configuración de un proceso ritualístico en el que distintos aspectos actúan como representaciones simbólicas que son, a su vez, catalizadores del poder de sanar por mediación de entidades sagradas que son convocadas en el rito, como puede ser la intervención de miembros del santoral católico. A estos se apela a través de fórmulas y estrategias que, por un lado, establecen una suerte de comunicación con lo divino y, por otro, implican un sistema de intercambio, en donde juegan un papel relevante las oraciones, el santiguado y todo un conjunto de ofrendas votivas.

Etnografía y lengua ritual
Authors: Altamirano Olmedo Andrés Darío , Grana Romina
Published: September 2023

Resumen: El presente artículo analiza el funcionamiento de una lengua ritual dentro de la religión Umbanda desde la perspectiva de la etnografía de la comunicación. Los ritos afrobrasileños plantean una situación lingüística compleja para sus practicantes de habla hispana: la lengua ritual empleada es el portugués; las deidades y sus saludos respectivos provienen del idioma yoruba; mientras que las performances complejas de sus practicantes -que incluyen elementos verbales y paralingüísticos- se manifiestan en una especie de portuñol. Mediante un trabajo de campo en un templo de la Ciudad de Córdoba, Argentina, se analiza la comunidad de habla, la situación comunicativa, los eventos y actos de habla que conforman un espacio social donde el dominio de la lengua ritual pone en contacto a los actores con las fuerzas espirituales de dicha religión, generando el efecto performativo del rito y definiendo el lugar ocupado por cada participante.
Analysis of Count Time Series: A Bayesian GARMA(p, q) Approach
Authors: Pala Luiz Otávio de Oliveira , Carvalho Marcela de M. , Sáfadi Thelma
Published: September 2023

Extensions of the Autoregressive Moving Average, ARMA(p, q), class for modeling non-Gaussian time series have been proposed in the literature in recent years, being applied in phenomena such as counts and rates. One of them is the Generalized Autoregressive Moving Average, GARMA(p, q), that is supported by the Generalized Linear Models theory and has been studied under the Bayesian perspective. This paper aimed to study models for time series of counts using the Poisson, Negative binomial and Poisson inverse Gaussian distributions, and adopting the Bayesian framework. To do so, we carried out a simulation study and, in addition, we showed a practical application and evaluation of these models by using a set of real data, corresponding to the number of vehicle thefts in Brazil.
THE IDEOLOGY OF RACISM AS A POLITICAL PHENOMENON PUTIN’S REGIME
Authors:   Kyiv International University (Kyiv) Ukraine, Krupenya Iryna
Published: September 2023

The article examines the term «racism» and states that it is a socio-political practice and ideology based on russian imperialism and chauvinism, the traditions of the communist regime of the USSR and national socialism, which was condemned by the Nuremberg trials. The signs of V. Putin’s regime are listed, in particular, militarism, the cult of the leader and the sacralization of state institutions, the self-aggrandizement of the russian federation through violent oppression and/or denial of the existence of other nations, the imposition of the russian language and culture on other nations, the promotion of the ideas of the «russian world», systematic violation of norms and principles of international law, sovereign rights of other states, their territorial integrity and internationally recognized borders. It has been established that one of the tools of spreading the ideology of racism is the use of symbols that include the Latin letters «Z», «V». It was noted that the use and propaganda of the symbols of the military invasion of Ukraine is a socially dangerous act and significantly threatens the foundations of Ukraine’s national security. The key tenets of the ideology of racism regarding the war in Ukraine, which are used by Russian propaganda to justify the crime of aggression, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide, have been studied. It was emphasized that the principle of justice and the supremacy of international law should not be debatable but should be understood equally by all states of the world.
THE MEANING OF THE IDEOLOGEMES "SUCCESS" AND "LUCK" IN THE MODERN BUSINESS CULTURE OF UKRAINE
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, Tovmash Dmytro
Published: September 2023

The modern world, as well as the business culture of our society, is filled with the ideologies of "successful success" and "inevitable luck". These ideologies are repeated in all media spheres and have become almost mantras. Everyone strives to be successful, to grab "luck by the tail", and the most successful sell trainings and books in these areas. The notion of "success" and the attribution of results to "luck" (good fortune) depend on cultural factors and social norms. Ukrainian business culture is shaped by historical experience, ideologies and aspirations. The purpose of our work is to identify the essential features of the social phenomena of success and luck, to differentiate them and to provide a schematic functional meaning. The concepts of "success" and "luck" have important cultural and social psychological significance, especially in the context of modern business culture. The issue of social practices is important both for personal self-realisation and for the development of Ukrainian society. It is important to recognise that social and national progress depends on the individual achievements of citizens. Given the constant changes in people's value system caused by the transformation of Ukrainian society, the study of the influence of ideologemes on the formation of personal strategies for achieving success and luck is becoming increasingly relevant. This research paper explores and compares the meanings given to these concepts within business culture. The article provides a conceptual search for the causes and impact of the phenomena of success and luck on the "brain drain", i.e. the emigration of highly skilled and educated people from one country to another.
Traumatology and Orthopedics in the Focus of Intellectual Property
Authors: Erivantseva Tatyana N. , Tuzova Svetlana Yu. , Lyskov Nikolay B. , Blokhina Yulia V. , Isamova Anna A.
Published: September 2023

High incidence of injuries, diseases of musculoskeletal system and connective tissue leads to a high demand for modern high-tech materials in the area of orthopedics and traumatology. Development of russian materials is an extremely relevant issue, especially under conditions of restricted supply of foreign products to the Russian Federation. Creation of new products and their subsequent launch to the market require comprehensive protection of unique information about the design, composition or production/manufacturing technology of the product. Analysis of patenting domestic solutions for trauma and orthopedic surgery in the Russian Federation has shown that there are various risks associated with the commercialization of national products. For example, russian developers in a number of cases neglect patent protection of their developments, which puts successful developments at risk of unauthorized copying or claims from other market players. On the other hand, patenting strategy of domestic developers for their products in most cases contains a number of errors, such as narrow bounds of patent protection due to incorrectly drafted patent claims. For example, these can be in formulations that can be easily bypassed in case of commercial interest in the product, preferential patenting of technological processes, lack of comprehensive patent protection of the product. Such patenting errors make the development unattractive for investors and manufacturers, which leads to low commercializability of russian inventions. Thus, russian developers, who have significant scientific potential and competencies to create highly effective national products, do not proceed with technology transfer and cannot bring their promising and in-demand products to the market.
Ambient Noise Tomography Using a Nodal Seismic Array Reveals Evidence for Igneous Intrusion Contributed to Ore Deposits in South China
Authors: Li MingRui , Fang Hongjian , Gao Rui
Published: September 2023

The causes of the large-scale and intense magmatism in South China and its coeval metallogenic processes in the Mesozoic have been debated, due partly to the lack of a high-resolution crustal model. In this study, we deploy ∼500 nodal seismometers around the Nanling metallogenic belt in South China, including one linear array across the metallogenic belt and one 2D array around the Fankou ore deposit: a deposit that hosts large amounts of lead and zinc in China. The derivation of the Moho and the intracrustal structures with receiver function imaging using the linear array was conducted in a separate study. Here, we focus mainly on the shallow shear wavespeed structure in the upper crust (from the surface to about 8 km depth) using ambient noise tomography with the 2D array data. We find low-shear wavespeed anomalies (VS<2.8  km/s) associated with a basin down to about 3.0 km and several high-shear wavespeed anomalies (VS>3.6  km/s) below 6.0 km adjacent to the Fankou ore deposit, which we interpret as the crystallized igneous intrusions in the Mesozoic. Gravity modeling shows that the high density anomaly derived using the wavespeed model is required to improve the data fitting. Considering the temperature derived from a typical geothermal gradient is insufficient for mineralization, we propose that the fluid and heat brought by the igneous intrusion might contribute to the mineral concentration of the Fankou ore deposit. This observation is consistent with geochemical and petrological evidence of diabase and quartz diorite veins in the study region. The experiment shows that ambient noise tomography using dense nodal arrays has the potential in resolving the favorable conditions for ore formation and may play a role in future ore exploration.

Published: September 2023

The paper shows that it is expedient to use vector masks for solving some types of digital image processing problems. The main advantage of vector masks compared to matrix masks is that they reduce the computational complexity of algorithms while maintaining, and in some problems even improving, quality indicators. The article demonstrates examples of the use of vector masks in the problem of estimating the level of discrete white noise in an image, forming a basis for constructing a correctly working sigma filter, which are used for obtaining smoothed partial derivative estimates in the problem of edge detection and detecting straight lines in a contour image. The work uses results obtained by the authors in their earlier publications.
Focusing a vortex beam with circular polarization: angular momentum

Based on the Richards-Wolf formalism, we obtain two different exact expressions for the angular momentum (AM) density in the focus of a vortex beam with the topological charge n and with right circular polarization. One expression for the AM density is derived as the cross product of the position vector and the Poynting vector and has a nonzero value at the focus for an arbitrary integer number n. The other expression for the AM density is deduced as a sum of the orbital angular momentum (OAM) and the spin angular momentum (SAM). We reveal that at the focus of the light field under analysis, the latter turns zero at n = –1. While both these expressions are not equal to each other at each point of space, 3D integrals thereof are equal. Thus, exact expressions are obtained for densities of AM, SAM and OAM at the focus of a vortex beam with right-hand circular polarization and the identity for the densities AM = SAM + OAM is shown to be violated. Besides, it is shown that the expressions for the strength vectors of the electric and magnetic fields near the sharp focus, obtained by adopting the Richards-Wolf formalism, are exact solutions of the Maxwell's equations. Thus, Richards–Wolf theory exactly describes the behavior of light near the sharp focus in free space.

La obra de Platón es inextinguible. A pesar de ser una de las obras más influyentes, comentadas y referidas de la historia de la filosofía y de la cultura, continúa interpelando y generando interpretaciones. El diálogo con Platón no se termina; su riqueza continúa iluminando el pensamiento en la actualidad. La colección de ensayos que se encuentran en este volumen y el proceso de investigación del que son resultado muestran la vigencia y actualidad del pensamiento de Platón y, en general, del mundo clásico. El propósito de esta colección de escritos es presentar diferentes perspectivas interpretativas de la obra de Platón. La publicación de un libro resultado de investigación, ofrece ciertas libertades que las revistas académicas no permiten; por ello, incluimos textos sin coartar el estilo de cada autor, sin imposiciones de número de palabras o número de referencias bibliográficas. Estas libertades, que no implican el abandono del rigor científico de cualquier investigación filosófica, permiten que los lectores encuentren en cada capítulo de este libro una provocación literaria y hermenéutica que convida a un encuentro siempre festivo, alegre y jovial con el amor a la sabiduría.

Semi-Classical Quantum Generalization of the London Equations and the Monopole Hypothesis
Authors: Aliev I.N. , Samedova Z.A. , Lyatifov R.E.
Published: September 2023

The paper considers the London equation semi-classical generalization leading to a connection between the Cooper pairs magnetic flux quantization and the electric charge discreteness. Using the Bohr --- Sommerfeld quantization rule, a derivation of the magnetic flux quantization was made on the basis of the fluxoid uniqueness. The resulting quantization was applied to the magnetic monopoles hypothesis proposed by Dirac, which remains relevant due to the asymmetry present in the modern physics in describing electrical and magnetic properties of matter. On a fairly simple model of the possible experiment, an option of registering a monopole by a jump in the magnetic induction flux and the associated alteration in the circuit current were studied. The paper analyzed the problems of the monopole different measurement units and the results similar to those obtained on the basis of the Schwinger series of works, where he proceeded from considering introduction of a hypothetical particle with the electric and magnetic charges, i.e., the dyon. Possible explanation of the Abrikosov vortex is presented, it is based on vortex representation in the form of a magnetized thin thread through the magnetic tubes, at the ends of which monopoles of different charges (dipole) are positioned. Unlike most the works devoted to this problem, calculations were performed in the SI system. The monopole quantization conditions were derived

In breeding, biofortification is aimed at enriching the edible parts of the plant with micronutrients. Within the framework of this strategy, molecular screening of collections of various crops makes it possible to determine allelic variants of genes, new alleles, and the linkage of allelic variants with morphophysiological traits. The maize (Zea maysL.) is an important cereal and silage crop, as well as a source of the main precursor of vitamin A – β-carotene, a derivative of the β,β-branch of the carotenoid biosynthesis pathway. The parallel β,ε-branch is triggered by lycopene-ε-cyclaseLCYE, a low expression of which leads to an increase in provitamin A content and is associated with the variability    of the 5’-UTR gene regulatory sequence. In this study, we screened a collection of 165 maize inbred lines of Russian selection for 5’-UTRLCYEallelic variants, as well as searched for the dependence ofLCYEexpression levels on the 5’-UTR allelic variant in the leaves of 14 collection lines. 165 lines analyzed were divided into three groups carrying alleles A2 (64 lines), A5 (31) and A6 (70), respectively. Compared to A2, allele A5 contained two deletions (at positions -267–260 and -296–290 from the ATG codon) and a G251→T substitution, while allele A6 contained one deletion (-290–296) and two SNPs (G251→T, G265→T). Analysis ofLCYEexpression in the leaf tissue of seedlings from accessions of 14 lines differing in allelic variants showed no associations of the 5’-UTRLCYEallele type with the level of gene expression. Four lines carrying alleles A2 (6178-1, 6709-2, 2289-3) and A5 (5677) had a significantly higher level ofLCYEgene expression (~0.018–0.037) than the other 10 analyzed lines (~0.0001–0.004), among which all three allelic variants were present.

Walnut is an important horticultural crop, the production of which ranks second among all nut crops. Despite the significant demand in the domestic market in Russia, the industrial production of walnut fruits in Russia is currently underdeveloped. At the same time, there is a need to update the assortment with new highly productive varieties adapted to local agro-climatic conditions and having high quality nuts that are competitive at the world level. An important issue for the successful implementation of breeding programs is a comprehensive study of the gene pool. In this regard, within the framework of the study, the task was to evaluate promising varieties from the collection of the walnut gene pool of the Nikitsky Botanical Gardens and analyze genetic relationships based on microsatellite genotyping. On the basis of the performed phenotypic assessment, the study sample, which included 31 varieties, was divided into several groups according to the main phenotypic traits, such as frost and drought resistance, the start of the growing season, the ripening period, the weight and type of flowering, the weight of the fruit, and the thickness of the endocarp. Varieties with economically valuable traits that can be recommended as promising as initial parental forms in breeding work for resistance to abiotic stress factors have been identified, as well as varieties with increased productivity and large fruit sizes. Based on the analysis of eight SSR markers (WGA001, WGA376, WGA069, WGA276, WGA009, WGA202, WGA089 and WGA054), an analysis of the level of genetic diversity was performed and genetic relationships were established in the studied sample of varieties. Six (for WGA089) to eleven (for WGA276) alleles per locus have been identified. A total of 70 alleles were identified for the eight DNA markers used, with an average value of 8.75. Analysis of SSR genotyping data using Bayesian analysis established the presence of two main groups of genotypes. Taking into account the fact that all the studied varieties are selections from local seed populations in different regions of the Crimean Peninsula, the revealed level of polymorphism may indirectly reflect the level of genetic diversity of the local walnut populations. Furthermore, the presence of two genetically distant groups indicates the presence of two independently formed pools of the autochthonous gene pool of the species Juglans regia L. on the Crimean Peninsula
