Preeclampsia is a disease that is not contagious but can cause death in pregnant women. Preeclampsia can be treated with non-pharmacological methods, one of which is foot bath therapy with warm water. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of foot soak therapy with warm water on reducing blood pressure in preeclamptic pregnant women at the North Galesong Public Health Center. This study is a quantitative study with a quasi-experimental design and a one group pretest-posttest design which was conducted on 37 preeclamptic pregnant women. The sampling technique used was purposive random sampling with a total sampling method that had been adjusted to the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria. Bivariate analysis used the Wilcoxon test with a significance level of < 0.05. The results of this study indicate, before giving foot bath therapy with warm water to pre-eclamptic pregnant women there is mild and moderate preeclampsia blood pressure, after giving foot soak therapy with warm water to preeclamptic pregnant women there is normal and mild preeclampsia blood pressure, Wilcoxon test shows the pretest- posttest on blood pressure p Value = 0.000. The conclusion of this study is that there is an effect of giving foot soak therapy with warm water on blood pressure in pre-eclamptic pregnant women at the North Galesong Health Center. Therefore, warm water foot soak therapy can be used as a non-pharmacological therapy that can be done independently to reduce blood pressure in preeclamptic pregnant women.

Personalization and machine learning algorithms are core to two of the most popular mobile dating applications, Tinder and Hinge. However, do they know their users better than users themselves? To explore this question, this paper investigates the most prominent ethical concerns with Tinder and Hinge’s algorithms and their ability to “nudge” and aggregate users’ decisions. Specifically, guided by Value-Sensitive Design, this paper examines the ethical concerns posed to users on matters of autonomy, opacity, and transparency, as Tinder and Hinge’s algorithms tread a fine line between supporting and controlling users’ matching decisions. Finally, calling for further research, this paper discusses the critical need for additional scholarly focus on the ways algorithms structure choice and whose interests they value.
Invisible Labour of Book Digitization Projects
Authors: Armstrong Grace
Published: March 2024

A consequence of increased digitization and online access to library materials is that users may view the book digitization process as being devoid of human labour. This process is an example of an invisible infrastructure that utilizes the guise of access and efficiency to underpay, undervalue, and deskill workers. Ruhleder and Star’s (1996) infrastructure framework defines infrastructure as a system that is learned, works with other standards and base systems, and becomes visible upon breakdown. This paper examines the Google Books Project and libraries to illustrate how book digitization projects can easily be made invisible at both an inflated and local scale.

Published: March 2024

Three-year (2020–2022) studies on the black soil of a typical experimental field of the Bila Tserkva National Agrarian University found that on unfertilized variants fertilized with 6t/ha of manure + N64P54K58, 6t/ha of manure + N98P66K92 and 6 t/ha of manure + N126P82K116 according to the use of non-commercial products of agrophytocenoses as organic fertilizer, the dry matter of root residues was 2.64, respectively; 3.89; 4.64 and 5.13 tons, plant residues – 3.63; 5.25; 6.24 and 6.84 tons, and crop rotation productivity – 1.98; 3.42; 4.40 and 4.83 tons of dry matter of the main products and 4.48; 7.84; 10.22 and 11.43 tons of the main products and by-products of crops per hectare of arable land. With an increase in fertilizer application rates, the increase in marketable products of agrophytocenoses is higher than that of plant residues. At the same time, the ratio of the dry mass of the main products and byproducts of agricultural plants to the mass of their root and plant residues, as well as the share of their nonmarketable products, is increasing. A positive balance of soil humus was recorded only in the fields of white mustard and buckwheat, it is negative under the rest of the agrophytocenoses. On unfertilized plots fertilized with 6 tons of manure + N64P54K58, 6 tons of manure + N98P66K92 and 6 tons of manure + N126P82K116 with the use of by-products of agrophytocenoses as organic fertilizer, the balance of humus in the arable layer of typical black soil was positive and was, respectively, 0.34; 0.63; 0.55 and 0.60 t per hectare of crop rotation. When noncommodity crop production was removed from the fields, this indicator was negative in all experimental variants. In general, the share of humus formed from manure, plant residues, green manure and non-commodity crop products in the crop rotation was 0, 36, 31 and 33% on unfertilized plots, respectively; 10, 30, 27 and 33 % – fertilized with 6 t/ha of manure + N64P54K58; 8, 29, 27 and 36 % – fertilized with 6 t/ha of manure + N98P66K92; 7.29, 26 and 38 % – fertilized with 6 t/ha of manure + N126P82K116. According to the indicator of the ecologization coefficient of agriculture, the zero fertilization system (without the application of manure and mineral fertilizers) corresponds to biological farming, the first is ecological, the second and the third – the ecologization of the branch. Agrotechnically efficient is the use of agrophytocenoses by-products as organic fertiliser and ploughing only for a row crop in a five-field crop rotation.

Current state of protective forest plantations with Sophora japonica (Sophora japonica L.) in the southern regions of Ukraine
Authors: Kurka S. , Ishchuk G.
Published: March 2024

The results of studies of the state, growth dynamics and agroforestry efficiency of shelterbelt forest plantations of different species composition in the southern regions of Ukraine are presented. The positive impact of shelterbelt forest plantations on the state of agricultural land is noted, which is manifested in the termination of water and wind erosion, accumulation of moisture in the soil, creation of a favourable microclimate in crops, increase in overall biodiversity, which leads to yield enhancement of field crops by 15 %. Their optimal species composition, parameters and optimal structure in the respective types of habitat conditions are determined. The current state and silvicultural and taxation indicators of shelterbelts were analyzed. A survey of plantations with Sophora japonica growing on the territory of Odesa and Mykolaiv regions was conducted. In these plantations, the heights and diameters of trees were measured, their condition was established, planting schemes were established for the creation of 2-4-6-row forest strips, and their current density at the age of 30 to 96 years was determined. Field-protective belts with Sophora japonica compared to Quercus robur, which are created on ordinary black soils, are well adapted to the arid climate. They have significantly higher productivity in all types of plantings and are endowed with a whole complex of high adaptive and economically valuable features, thanks to which they can be widely used in planting field-protective forest belts. It has been established that the current state of protective forest plantations is significantly negatively affected by anthropogenic factors: trees are damaged by unauthorized fellings, every year, a significant part of them is damaged by fire during the stubble burning, the plantations located near the settlement are used as a place for storing household and other waste, and uncontrolled grazing is carried out. To increase the effectiveness of protective forest plantations, we recommend bringing the plantations into proper sanitary condition through selective sanitary felling; to carry out reconstruction in the field protection plantations, as well as to organize monitoring of pest foci and control unauthorized fellings.

Sowing productivity and grain quality of winter triticale with the use of biological preparations
Authors: Karpenko V.
Published: March 2024

The article highlights the experimental results of research on the influence of pre-sowing seeds and crops treatment with biological preparations of fungicidal properties on crop productivity formation and the quality of winter triticale grain. The analysis of yield and quality of winter triticale grain showed that they changed depending on the type and methods of application of the researched preparations and weather conditions during the years of research. In 2021 when seeds were bacterised with «Melanoriz» and «Biozlak», there was a tendency to increase the yield level compared to the control by 0.4 and 0.3 t/ha respectively. Grain yield increment of 0.3–0.7 t/ha was obtained with the application of «Baktofit» biofungicide at the norms of 2.0–3.0 l/ha. A noticeable increase in yield occurred when spraying crops by «Baktofit» on the background of seed bacteriization with microbial preparations. In particular, for application 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 l/ha of biofungicide on the background of seed treatment by «Biozlak» the yield increased by 0.9, 1.2 and 1.4 t/ha, on the background of seed treatment by «Melanoriz» – on 1.0, 1.3 and 1.7 t/ha according to the «Baktofit» norms. The dependence of winter triticale yield formation on the type and methods of application of the studied preparations was also observed in 2022 and 2023. However, in these years it slightly decreased, which was due to weather conditions and the active development of pathogenic microbiota in the sowings. The studied preparations had a significant impact on the formation of winter triticale grain quality indicators, especially when used in combination (seed treatment and application during the growing season). In particular, the highest weight of 1000 grains (by 1.5–2.2 g more than the control) and grain weight (by 31.4–39.8 g/l more than the control) were formed by the application of «Baktofit» against the background of seed bacterisation with «Melanoriz». The highest content of protein and starch in winter triticale grain was noted for spraying crops with «Baktofit» on the background of pre-sowing seed bacteriization with «Melanoriz», which exceeded the control by 0.6–1.5 % and 6.4–7.1 % respectively.
Key words: productivity, grain quality, biological preparations, «Melanoriz», «Biozlak», «Baktofit», winter triticale.
Establishing the optimal parameters of determining the sicklepod seed germination (Astragalus falcatus Lam.)

Published: March 2024

Establishing the good quality of the seed material and the sowing qualities of the seeds is one of the important aspects of the successful cultivation of sicklepod. At the same time, control of the seed material of medicinal plants, the requirements of which must be consistent with the international standards and the requirements of the «Guidelines on good cultivation and harvesting practice» (GACP) of raw materials of plant origin is impossible without establishing methods for determining its seed qualities. Special attention in the study of these issues should be paid to the seeds of medicinal plants that are grown in culture for a short time, such as sicklepod (Astragalus falcatus Lam.). It should be noted that germination is a standardised and most important indicator of seed quality, which is the basic indicator for the purchase and sale of seeds and the release of seeds for sowing. After all, germination rate established by the standard ensures normal germination of seeds in field conditions, formation of optimal crop density and crop yield. However the conducted patent search – analysis of scientific literature and regulatory documents – showed that in Ukraine for a wide range of medicinal and essential oil crops, in particular sicklepod, there are no regulatory documents (current standards) on methods of determining sowing qualities and technical conditions for seeds. Therefore, the purpose of the research was to establish the peculiarities of sicklepod seed germination determining using standard procedures and methods that are applied in domestic and international practice. The methodological approaches used for other crops in regulatory documents both in force in Ukraine and abroad were taken into account. The optimal parameters for determining the germination energy and germination rate of sicklepod seeds were experimentally determined. It was established that the optimal substrate is filter paper, and the germination method – on the filter. The optimal temperature regime for germination is variable (+20–30 °C) temperatures. Accounting periods: germination energy – 5 days, germination – 12 days.

Peculiarities of mustard genofond formation in Ukraine
Authors: Mikolajko I. , Karpuk L.
Published: March 2024

The purpose of the research is to assess the features of the formation of the mustard genofond and its distribution in production in Ukraine. As of 2023 in the Register of plant varieties approved for the use in Ukraine, there are 40 varieties of mustard, of which 14 varieties are white mustard or 35 % of the total. The largest number of varieties of sarepda spring mustard is 42.5 % of the total number, which is due to a greater demand, since all other types of mustard are sown before winter. There is a great threat of their death during the overwintering period, but there is no such threat when sowing spring mustard. Most varieties are recommended for cultivation in all soil and climatic zones of Ukraine. Varietal change is most intense in varieties of white and black mustard, in the register of new varieties white mustard contains 57.2 %, black mustard – 66.7 %. Mustard was grown in Ukraine by all categories of farms, and the main indicators – sowing area before harvesting, grain yield and gross harvest – were mandatory for statistical reporting until 2015. After that it was not separately identified in statistical reporting, which complicates the accounting and analysis of crop cultivation volumes. The analysis of mustard areas before harvesting showed that the main amount of mustard was grown in agricultural farms in 2009, 167.53 thousand hectares or 96.5 % of the total area. By 2015, the mustard sown areas had been significantly decreased and amounted to 58.8 thousand ha in all categories of farms, or 2.85 times, compared to 2009, and the grain yield increased by an average of 0.24 t/ha. Yield enhancement provided gross harvest increment of mustard grain intensively, although due to the reduction in areas before harvesting, the gross grain harvest decreased.

Crop productivity and quality of brown mustard seeds under the influence of pre-sowing fertilization and foliar feeding in the conditions of the North-Eastern Steppe of Ukraine
Authors: Rozhkov A. , Kyrychenko M.
Published: March 2024

The article presents the research results of the complex impact of the pre-sowing fertilizers and foliar fertilization on the yield and quality of gray mustard seeds in the conditions of the North-Eastern Steppe of Ukraine. The purpose of the research was to identify the options for pre-sowing application of complex fertilizers and foliar feeding, which ensure the formation of the highest seed yield and the largest collection of gray mustard oil the «Felicia» variety. The research was conducted in 2020, 2021 and 2023 on the basis of farm «Kyrychenko M» of Boriv district, Kharkiv region. A two-factor field experiment was set up using the split-plot method in four replications. The first-order plots were five variants of pre-sowing fertilization, the second order ones – five variants of foliar fertilizing with various combinations of watersoluble fertilizers. The area of the sown plot was 90 m2, the accounting plot was 70 m2 . The highest seed yield (2.27–2.33 t/ha) and oil collection (0.915–0.939 t/ha) were noted on the variants of the combination of pre-sowing application of N45P30K30 and N45P45K45 with two foliar top dressings during 21–23 and 50-53 microphases with a solution urea (10 kg/ha) and complex water-soluble fertilizer «Quantum technical» (2.0 l/ha). The oil content in the seeds did not undergo significant changes. There was only a tendency to increase the oil content in the seeds under the condition of foliar fertilizing and the dose reducing of pre-sowing fertilizers. In particular, the oil content in mustard seeds increased by 0.3–0.4 % in the variants of two foliar feedings compared to the control, and in the variants of pre-sowing application of N45P45K45 it deceased by 0.7 % compared to the control. Weather conditions led to significant changes in seed yield and oil yield per hectare, but the general tendency of influence of the studied factors remained. Based on this, increasing the dose of pre-sowing application from N45P30K30 to N45P45K45, as well as adding to the working solutions for foliar fertilization of the monoelement fertilizer «Quantum-BOR Active» is not advisable.

Published: March 2024

The article presents the results of the study of the seasonal rhythm of the growth and development processes of sweet cherry varieties in the conditions of the Right-Bank Forest Steppe of Ukraine. The beginning of culture development, passage and duration of the main phenophases are determined. There is slight varietal variability between the dates of the beginning and duration of vegetation in accordance with changes in weather conditions. As a result of the conducted observations, it was established that the beginning of vegetation of sweet cherry varieties takes place in the first decade of April. The beginning of flowering of cherry trees is noted in the first half of the third decade of April, the variation of cherry blossoming beginning over the years reaches 5–10 days, which is most typical for the example of the «Dar Mlieva» and «Drogan yellow» varieties. The onset of harvestable ripeness largely determines the variety's belonging to the ripeness group. The fruits of the «Mliivska yellow», «Dar Mlieva», and «Zoryana» varieties are the first to be harvested, and after 26 days, the fruits of the «Amazon» variety are harvested. According to the results of observations, sweet cherry varieties were conditionally divided into groups of ripeness: early ripening, in which the fruits ripen 44-48 days after flowering, medium ripening – fruits ripen 50–60 days after the end of flowering, late ripening – fruits ripen later than 60 days after flowering. Depending on the onset of the harvestable ripeness of the fruits and the duration of the fruiting phase, for timeliness and convenience of harvesting it became possible to create a kind of harvesting conveyor. The duration of the growing season was on average 186 days in the early-ripening group of sweet cherry varieties with the shortest period in the «Mliivska yellow» variety, 191 days for the medium-ripening group varieties with the longest period in the «Melitopolska krapchasta» variety and the shortest in the «Alyonushka» variety, in the lateripening varieties «Biruza» and «Amazon» varieties 196 and 200 days respectively.

Analysis of the project proposals for the reconstruction of the Tomilivskyi park, a memorial of landscape gardening art of local significance
Authors: Rohovskiy S. , Ishchuk L. , Zhykharieva K. , Khryk V.
Published: March 2024

In Ukraine, about 500 objects have the status of a park-memorial of landscape art, most of which require restoration measures. That is why the analysis of project proposals for the reconstruction of a park-memorial of landscape art on the example of Tomylivskyi Park, a park-monument of local importance, is an urgent task. This park was created in the middle of the last century near the city of Bila Tserkva as an arboretum of the forestry on an area of 2.4 hectares. The inventory revealed that 76 species of woody plants grow in the park, some of which are 60–70 years old. Their preservation is one of the goals of the reconstruction. The project was based on a reference plan made on the basis of a geodetic survey of the territory and an inventory of the park’s plantations. A detailed study of the situation made it possible to divide the trees into three large groups: the most valuable, relatively valuable, and those to be removed, and to mark their growth areas on the plan in different colours. The development of park management measures involves sanitary and landscape felling and the formation of tree crowns. At this stage dead, dying and heavily infested with Viscum album L. trees are to be removed. For the remaining trees, branches infested with mistletoe and lower branches up to a height of 4–6 m, as well as damaged branches, are removed, which will significantly improve the illumination of the canopy under the trees and free up space for planting new trees and shrubs and create conditions for the growth of herbaceous plants. The need to remove some healthy trees of self-seeding origin is discussed. It is proposed to expand the network of park paths, to ensure the expansion of existing paths and to install a hard top surface. It is proposed to install small architectural forms for utilitarian and decorative purposes. It is planned to create a number of wooden sculptures from the trunks of dead trees. The optimization of the park plantations involves planting 76 species and cultivars of woody plants, creating of compositions based on a systematic principle, addition of trees groups with backdrops of ornamental shrubs and forming of multi-tiered plantations on the edges of lawns and along the park’s borders. The planting of long-lasting coniferous and deciduous trees next to existing mature specimens is justified.

Published: March 2024

The article presents the results of research on the influence of different preparations of the «Quantum» system on the biometric parameters of potato plants of the medium-early variety «Zhytnytsia» and the medium-ripening variety «Melaniya». The purpose of the research is to develop new and improve existing agrotechnical measures for growing new potato varieties on sod-podzolic sandy loam soils of Ukrainian Polissya. It has been experimentally proven that the application of a complex of agrotechnical measures has a positive effect on the biometric indicators of potato plants development during the growing season. New potato varieties «Zhytnytsia» and «Melaniya» responded positively to fertiliser application, their rates and methods. According to the studies conducted in 2021–2022, both «Zhytnytsia» and «Melaniya» varieties distinguished 2 variants, the 4th and 6th, where N90P60K90 (locally) + «Quantum Seamin» (0,5 l/t) + Prolonged nitrogen (leaf – budding, flowering, after flowering) and N90P60K90 (locally) + «Quantum Diafan 3-18-18» (2 l/t) + Prolonged nitrogen (leaf – budding, flowering, after flowering) were applied. In 2021 in the varieties «Zhytnytsia» and «Melaniya» on average the period from planting to full germination was 44 days, from planting to budding – 58 days, from planting to flowering – 64 days. The period from planting to tops dieback in 1, 3 and 5 variants of «Zhytnytsia» variety was 100 days, and in 2, 4 and 6 variants – 110 days. Accordingly, in «Melaniya» variety these figures were 110 and 120 days. The highest density was found in variants 4 and 6, respectively, 49.3 and 47.5 thousand bushes/ha. In the same variants the field germination rate was 92.5 % and 89.1 %; the number of stems was 3.9 (401.7 thousand pcs/ha) and 3.5 (367.5 thousand pcs/ha) per plant respectively; plant height was 77.0 and 73.0 cm; leaf surface area was 229.2 and 194.3 cm² respectively. Similar results were obtained for the «Melaniya» variety. The same variants had a longer growing season due to the use of prolonged nitrogen, which had a good effect on the yield. Thus, after analysing these indicators, we can conclude that the best options for varieties «Zhytnytsia» and «Melaniya» are variants 4 and 6.

The research was conducted in 2021– 2023 in the conditions of LLC «Savarske» Obukhiv district Kyiv region. The scheme of the experiment: Factor A. Varieties «Amadea», «Aurelina». Factor B. Fungicides. Control (treatment of seeds and plants with water), «Maxim Advance 195 FS» (1.25 l/t) (treatment of seeds before sowing), «Vibrance RFC» (1 l/t) (seed treatment before sowing), «Selest top 312.5 FS» (1 l/t) (seed treatment before sowing), «Standak Top» (2 l/t) (seed treatment before sowing), «Abacus» (2 l/ha) (during the growing season), «Maxim Advance 195 FS» (1.25 l/t) + «Abacus» (2 l/ha), «Vibrance RFC» (1 l/t) +»Abacus» (2 l/ha), «Selest top 312.5 FS» (1 l/t) + «Abacus» (2 l/ha), «Standak Top» (2 l/t) + «Abacus» (2 l/ha). The maximum indicators of the leaf surface area of soybean plants of the varieties «Aurelina» and «Amadea» were obtained in the phase of grain formation – 44.85 and 45.91 thousand m2 /ha. The smallest assimilation surface of crops was in the budding phase – 15.10 and 15.07 thousand m2 /ha. Under the influence of fungicidal protection the leaf surface area of varieties «Amadea» and «Aurelina» increased by 0.90 and 0.94 thousand m2 /ha in the flowering phase and by 3.11 and 3.46 thousand m2 /ha in the phase of grain formation, compared to control variants. The greatest increase in leaf surface area was noted for the combined use of fungicides «Standak Top» (2 l/t) for pre-sowing seed treatment and «Abacus» (2 l/ha) during the growing season. According to the results of dispersion analysis varietal characteristics (37.7 %) and fungicidal protection (35.4 %) had the greatest influence on the formation of the leaf surface area of soybean plants and the interaction of these factors was 12.3 %. The highest photosynthetic potential of the varieties «Amadea» and «Aurelina» was on the variants of fungicides application «Standak Top» (2 l/t) + «Abacus» (2 l/ha) – 3.09 and 3.16 million m2 × days/ha, «Selest top» (1 l/ t) + «Abacus» (2 l/ha) – 3.08 and 3.14 million m2 × days/ha and «Vibrance» (1 l/t) + «Abacus» (2 l/ha) – 3.06 and 3.13 million m2 × days/ha. The maximum values of the net productivity of photosynthesis in the varieties «Amadea» and «Aurelina» were obtained in the budding phase – 3.88–4.16 and 3.89–4.27 g/m2 × day. The use of fungicidal protection provided an increase of this indicator by 0.07–0.28 and 0.06– 0.38 g/m2 × day, compared to the control options. Depending on the accounting periods, the variety «Aurelina» was superior to the variety «Amadea» in leaf surface area by 1.6–3.8 % in photosynthetic potential by 1.2–2.5 % and in net photosynthetic productivity by 0.8–1.7 %.

Published: March 2024

Food wastes reducing, as well as non-invasive methods to extend the shelf life of perishable fruits, are important global challenges for scientists and entrepreneurs. With Ukrainian producers entering to foreign markets, the relevance of the topic of high-quality storage of fruit and vegetable products takes on special importance. The higher the yield and the number of berry crops grown by our farmers, the more challenges there are regarding the processing, storage and logistics of the harvested crops. In practice, it is difficult to provide optimal conditions for preserving quality, freshness, taste, aroma, and appearance due to the delicacy and capriciousness of products. Garden strawberry (Fragaria ananassa) is a highly nutritious and economically important berry crop with a short shelf life. This is a seasonal berry that is on the market for only a few months. During mass harvesting period strawberries is the leader in the number of losses among all berry crops due to its physiological characteristics. This paper proposes the use of chitosan to extend the shelf life of strawberries. The effect of are-treatment with chitosan solutions of different concentrations was studied. To assess the impact of are-treatment on quality indicators of strawberries the research was conducted every third day of storage, determining weight loss; m.h. SRR; m.h. organic acids; m.h. of sugars. Strawberrries were treated with chitosan solutions of three concentrations (0.1; 0.2; 0.3 %) by full immersion for 1 min. The treated berries were left until completely dry. Dry treated berries and the control ones were weighed and placed in perforated plastic containers with a capacity of 500 g and stored in a refrigerator at a temperature of 0+2 o C. Berries without treatment were considered as control. Strawberries of the «Dukat» variety grown in 2022–2023 accumulated an average of 10.4 % of dry soluble substances and 1.1 % of organic acids. It was found that the post-harvest treatment of strawberries with a chitosan solution ensured their highest preservation compared to the control, which proves the effectiveness of its application. Pre-treatment of strawberries with a chitosan solution slowed down the loss of dry soluble substances by 0.2–0.9 %, and organic acids by 0.04–0.12 % of the control.

The use of DNA markers in raspberry (Rubus L.) research: a review
Authors: Dyman N. , Karpuk L.
Published: March 2024

Raspberry (Rubus L.) is one of the most common berry crops in horticulture. It is a valuable food product for humans and a raw material for food processing companies. The assortment of raspberries in Ukraine includes more than 30 varieties. Modern breeding and genetic programs are aimed at expanding genetic diversity and creating new raspberries varities. Molecular genetic methods are increasingly being used in both fundamental and applied research of Rubus species. This article presents an overview of the main types of molecular markers used to study genetic polymorphism of Rubus species. Out of the whole variety of available DNA markers, such molecular methods of analysis as RAPD, RFLP, AFLP, ISSR, SSR and SNPs have proved to be the most effective in solving problems related to genotypes, population polymorphism, genetic mapping, and phylogenetic studies of raspberries. Their high efficiency is associated with increased resolution, reproducibility, high informativeness, the possibility of analysis automatization, speed, simplicity and availability. These markers are a convenient tool for genomic selection and research of genetic diversity of not only the genus Rubus representatives, but also of all living organisms. As of retrotransposon markers, which make up the main part of the eukaryotes genome, there are few scientific papers on their use for the study of representatives of the genus Rubus, unlike other crops. Significant progress in raspberry breeding is associated with the development of modern sequencing technologies. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) allows simultaneous generation of a large number of SNP markers that are used to create genetic maps, identify pathogen resistance genes, map economically useful traits etc.

Published: March 2024

The main focus of the institution's breeding work is the creation of highly productive potato varieties based on high-quality breeding material characterized by a higher manifestation of economically valuable traits and stability of their expression regardless of external conditions. The aim of the research is to study the peculiarities of manifestation of economically valuable traits in hybrid combinations created from intervarietal crosses with subsequent selection of valuable genotypes to improve selective traits in new promising potato varieties. Field, laboratory, measuring and weighing, organoleptic, mathematical and statistical methods were used in the research. The research was conducted in 2020–2022 in the Polissya Research Department of the Institute of Potato Growing of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine according to generally accepted methods in potato growing. The object of the research is intervarietal hybrids created with the participation of the best domestic varieties. According to the research results, it was found that highly productive offspring are obtained by combining parental forms by maturity: early/medium early, super early/early, mid-season/medium early, mid-season/super early and mid-season/early. Significant potential was found in some genotypes of combinations that demonstrate a 2–2.5 times higher yield than the parental form. Combinations have been identified in which an increase of 1.5–2 times the average weight of tubers is observed compared to the variety. At the same time, it should be noted that the 100 % share of genotypes in the combinations in preference to the parental form is as follows: productivity 48 %, average tuber weight 13 %, starch content 13 % and taste 22 %. Of the 23 combinations studied, 10 showed low starch content at the level of 14.3–16.0 % and 13 variants with an average ranging from 16.1 % to 18.0 %. Based on the research results, hybrid combinations were identified: «Vzirets» / «Svitana», «Vektar» / «Vzirets», «Svitana» / «Mezhyrichka 11» and «Bohach «/ «Vyhoda», which contain forms with a high starch content of 20.1–20.6 %. It should be noted that in terms of taste, the proportion of offspring with a positive increase in the trait to the parental form is 87 %. The most effective combinations with the highest tasting score have been selected. It was found that in the studied offspring, a positively high and medium correlation was observed between yield and average tuber weight.

‘Even the Stones Will Cry Out’: Native American Cosmology, Theological Anthropology and the Mission of Creation
Authors: Conarroe Gregory
Published: March 2024

Based on a unique cosmology Native American theologians propose theological anthropologies which represent humanity as the weakest of all created beings. Accordingly, this paper will advocate reframing humanity’s call to creation care from one of superiority in which humankind cares for creation, to one of humility in which humankind is cared for by creation. This paper will begin by outlining a prominent symbol for a properly ordered cosmos across Native American contexts known as the Sacred Circle. By identifying the origins of Native American contextual theologies in a pan-Native American cosmology popularised by the teachings of Lakota holy man and Catholic catechist Nicholas Black Elk (1863–1950) it will introduce core tenets of Native American cosmology. The most prominent of these is the Sacred Circle’s representation of a cosmological priority for space over time, which is often linked to an egalitarian, interrelated view of the cosmos. By engaging a range of primary source texts from Native American theologians who continue the legacy of Black Elk by contextualising Christian faith in accordance with the Sacred Circle, this paper will recognise land as the locus of a tangible spirituality. Accordingly, non-human beings have spiritual agency and personhood, and human beings must learn to relate to them rightly to participate in cosmological harmony. Human beings may do this by recognising human fragility and dependence on non-human persons for survival. Therefore, humanity’s call to creation care begins and ends with humility, manifested through gratitude and reciprocity towards non-human creatures.
Algorithm of methodological aspects of nature management in Ukraine as constitutionally motivated requirements of today
Authors: Kovaliv O.
Published: March 2024

A constitutionally motivated algorithm of methodological aspects of land and nature use, especially in the agricultural sphere, which is an effective mechanism (tool) for painless correction (elimination) of assumed errors in the process of the so-called «land reform» in Ukraine. The need to demarcate the rights of two different property objects to «land», namely: — to «land plot» (border) as an object of civil rights; and — on «land and its natural resources» as natural objects of ownership of the Ukrainian people, which are located within such areas, as well as the introduction of a de facto institute of nature management on a paid basis according to established regulations. It has been established that the criminal replacement of the current constitutional land norm of «use» with the unconstitutional factor of «distribution» contributes to the self-righteous use of natural resources as objects of someone else's property. A system mechanism is recommended for the implementation of approved project solutions of architectural, construction and land management arrangement in the entire geospace of the state, forming a balanced land use — from the standpoint of national interests and the interests of local communities. It has been proven that the application of this mechanism will eliminate any obstacles and objections in the primary identification and certification of all natural objects (existing and rehabilitated) that have a nature reserve, nature protection, water regulation, health, recreational, historical and cultural and other value. The outlined constitutional right will act fairly in the process of determining (removing from intensive use) plots in agro-landscapes that are subject to liming, afforestation and have environmental significance. It has been established that the main role as a factor of responsible financial support in the process of formation and formation of all such Ukrainian business entities (according to the target functional purpose) will be performed by the Budget of the National Land Institution of Ukraine together with and with the participation of able-bodied citizens who will independently decide in what way they will carry out their comfortable living in the relevant territory, as well as the budgets of local communities at the basic level. It is planned to organize more than 250,000 (preferably more than 500,000) new private family farms and peasant farms (ancestral, family estates) created by young families (the priority right is granted — to participants in hostilities (soldiers — winners) and their families) and their families), mainly, without hired workers, with a total area of almost 10 million hectares of small arable land massifs and other (4–5 million hectares) adjacent lands.

The article provides a general overview of the biota of the «Askania Nova» Biosphere Reserve named after F.E. Falz-Fein of NAAS based on existing reports and updating of some inventory data. The information on the area, functional zoning and physical and geographical location of the territory is presented. The original, historically defined infrastructure of the Askania Reserve Complex is noted, which significantly differs from the objects of the nature reserve fund of Ukraine due to the combination of natural ecosystems of virgin fescue-fescue steppe with plantations of the irrigated dendrological park and the zoo with semi-free keeping of wild ungulates. It is emphasized that such a combination of nature protection functions and heterogeneity of the natural-territorial complex determine a high level of biodiversity, including its rare component. Thus, the indicated heterogeneity of the Reserve's territory, as well as the succession of natural ecosystems, invasions and related consequences of introduction require periodic re-inventories, critical audits, coordination and systematization of general floristic and faunal summaries of the territory, individual species lists in the context of functional zones, and clarification of the sozological status of species. Existing materials on the biota diversity and the list of rare species of flora and fauna of the «Askania Nova» Biosphere Reserve have been consolidated into a single, comprehensive list, which illustrates the full species composition of natural and artificial ecosystems of different functional zones, proves the factual richness of the current version of the general biota summary, provides the necessary cadastral information and methodological basis for assessing the environmental damage caused by the armed aggression and occupation of the territory. Currently, the biodiversity of the «Askania Nova» Biosphere Reserve, including the dendrological park of national importance and the zoo, comprises 2570 species of phytobiota (vascular plants — 1762, bryophytes — 54, algae — 285, fungi — 330, lichens and lichenicolous fungi — 139) and 2292 species of zoobiota (invertebrates — 1945, vertebrates — 347). The biota includes 167 species of flora and 307 species of fauna with national, regional, and international protection status.
