Problems about the Canon in Teaching Philosophy in Colombia
Authors: Prada Londoño Manuel , Prieto Fredy H.
Published: December 2023

This text is focused on the question of what we should teach in high school philosophy and the relationship of this teaching to recognizing oneself as a good philosophy teacher. We hold that these points are connected to the idea of “canon” and “history of philosophy” that we gained with and despite Ricœur himself. This paper advances a critical view of contemporary practices in philosophy teaching in Colombia through Ricœur’s thought. In the first part, we follow Ricœur’s considerations about the history of philosophy and its connections to the very practice of thinking. In the second part, we concentrate on the question of the canon. At the end of each section, we will give some pedagogical stitches to interweave Ricœur’s philosophical legacy with the didactics and theory of the curriculum, thus forming a tripod that should be part of the didactics of philosophy as an independent discipline.

Tefsîrü’l-Menâr’da Kıraatlere Yaklaşım
Authors: Şimşek İbrahim
Published: December 2023

The recitations (kıraat) are one of the most important factors in understanding the Qur’an. The subject of recitations has become one of the important topics of the science of interpretation (tafsir). Therefore, recitations are one of the topics that commentators emphasize and evaluate in tefsir books. Tefsîru’l-Menâr, one of the tefsirs written for understanding the Qur’an, is a concise, clear, and widely used work. Tefsîru’l-Menâr tefsir also examines the recitations while trying to understand the verses, and it is an important tefsir work in which the recitations are approached in different ways. In Tefsîrü’l-Menâr, importance is given to the preference of recitations and the conformity of the recitations to the stylistic integrity of the Qur’an. For these and similar reasons, the examination of recitations in the tefsir of Tefsîru’l-Menâr is important in terms of recitations and the science of tafsir.

Briefly Recalling Moments in Mathematics Education History:
Authors: Darrow, Jr. Brian D.
Published: December 2023

Arithmetic was the first mathematical subject to enter the school curriculum in the United States in a formalized manner. Until the first quarter of the nineteenth century, the prevailing pedegogy of this subject revolved around the tenets of mental discipline theory and the rules method of teaching, which valued memorization and repetivive drill of procedures. This continued until pedegogical alternatives to this approach were offered by innovative textbook writers, most notably William Colburn and his 1825 text First Lessons in Arithmetic on the Plan of Pestalozzi. In this article, the teaching of arithemtic in the early United States and the influence of Colburn's text is discussed and is later contextualized through their influence on modern mathematics education practice.

Authors: Petrova Hristina , Wątor Katarzyna , Rusiniak Piotr , Vakanjac Boris , Ristić Vakanjac Vesna , Kmiecik Ewa
Published: December 2023

Regarding the aspect of mineral, thermo-mineral, and thermal waters, on the territory of the Republic of North Macedonia, there are 65 registered locations, of which 8 are categorized as spas. This includes the Kežovica spa, also known as the Štipska spa. In the vicinity of Kežovica Spa is the thermo-mineral L’Dži spring with mineralization around 1.3 g/L and the water temperature at the time of sampling was 50.1°C. Spring L’Dži is generated by a fault structure and is linked to a granite massif of Mesozoic age. These are alkaline waters (pH=8.3) and the hydrochemical type is chloride-sodium. Regarding the trace elements, the water of the L’Dži spring contains a large amount of boron and silica. Water also contains an increased content of arsenic (200 µg/L) and tungsten (169 µg/L). Elevated concentrations of As and W are characteristic of alkaline thermal waters in reducing conditions. Often elevated concentrations of Mo are accompanied by elevated concentrations of As and W, which is also the case.
The teacher-student relationship: A comparative study of the report of students with autism spectrum disorder and typical development
Authors: Zañartu Isidora , Pérez-Salas Claudia
Published: December 2023

The teacher-student relationship (TSR) is an important factor for promoting academic success. Even though students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) experience more educational difficulties, the TSR in ASD students has been understudied, and there is a significant empirical gap in the perception that ASD adolescent students themselves have of their relationships with their teachers. The present study followed a non-experimental, correlational, cross-sectional and comparative design to analyze the TSR in ASD adolescents in comparison to the TSR of their typically developing (TD) peers. Sixty-four students (33 females, 31 males) who were in their first year of secondary school ( participated in the study. 32 of them had ASD and 32 had TD. The TSR subscale of the SEI was applied (Appleton et al., 2006). The results show significant interaction effects between student condition and gender, where female ASD students reported a worse relationship than their male ASD peers. These findings differ from existing research indicating that ASD students experience worse TSR and that female students experience better relationships than male students. The important role of the existing school integration program in Chilean schools, and guidelines for future research to explain the gender differences found in this study are discussed.

Published: December 2023

Les informations médicales ne sont pas toujours faciles à comprendre pour les patients. Il existe des documents en ligne et des sites Internet, mais les informations ne sont pas nécessairement fiables, suffisamment vulgarisées ou utiles, et peuvent stresser davantage les patients et leur famille. Le but de cette recherche en cours est de mieux outiller les patients francophones vivant en milieu minoritaire pour augmenter leur degré de compréhension lié aux différentes étapes de la chirurgie cardiaque, diminuer leur degré d’anxiété par rapport à l’intervention chirurgicale et s’assurer qu’ils fournissent un consentement libre et éclairé lorsque vient le temps de subir une chirurgie cardiaque. Pour ce faire, des vidéos multimédias bilingues ont été créées pour expliquer les différentes étapes de la chirurgie cardiaque et les risques associés dans un langage simple à comprendre. Dans la phase pilote de ce projet, 49 participants ont visionné les deux premières vidéos (« Avant la chirurgie » et « Pendant la chirurgie ») et ont répondu à un questionnaire relatif à leur appréciation. Les résultats obtenus ont été prometteurs. La prochaine étape de la recherche consistera à réaliser une étude randomisée en utilisant un groupe expérimental (patients avec le format vidéo) et un groupe contrôle (patients utilisant le format papier standard).
Utiliser ou non les logiciels de télésurveillance dans un contexte d’évaluation en formation à distance?
Authors: Sirois Jean-Sébastien
Published: December 2023

Dans un contexte de formation à distance, l’évaluation en ligne représente un réel défi, alors que tant d’informations sont accessibles en quelques clics et au bout des doigts des apprenants. Dès lors, les logiciels de télésurveillance d’examen sont devenus des outils incontournables. Cet intérêt pour l’utilisation de cette technologie doit s’accompagner d’une réflexion quant aux possibles effets que peut avoir la télésurveillance sur les étudiants. Ces effets peuvent être désirés, découlant de la nature même des logiciels de télésurveillance en permettant d’assurer l’intégrité intellectuelle des évaluations à distance, mais il existe aussi un effet indésirable lié à l’anxiété augmentée par le recours à la télésurveillance, notamment en raison du caractère intrusif de ces outils, du facteur technologique et des conditions à respecter qu’ils supposent. Cet effet indésirable pouvant être atténué et contrôlé, la télésurveillance représente un outil précieux dans le nécessaire combat contre la fraude scolaire. Les logiciels de télésurveillance demeurent des outils importants pour que l’évaluation en ligne soit réalisée de manière sécuritaire et efficace, pourvu que tous les moyens soient mis en place pour accompagner les étudiants dans ce mode de surveillance.

Authors: Goel Vibhor , Saharan Ajeet Kumar , Saharan Manisha
Published: December 2023

Objective: Purpose of this study is to compare the effect of Conventional Physiotherapy techniques and exercise therapeutic regime versus advanced programmed based electrotherapeutic interventions and exercise therapeutic regime on chronic lumbar discogenic radiculitis (unilateral or bilateral).
Subjects: In this study subjects are classified in two groups. One is control group and another is experimental group. 52 patients of age group between 25 to 34 years of age were randomly divided equally in control group (n=26) and experimental group (n=26).
Methods: Control group was treated with Conventional Physiotherapy and Experimental group is intervened by advanced programmed based electrotherapeutic interventions & exercise therapeutic regime. Treatment was given 6 times per week for three weeks and follow up was done after 4th week of initial evaluation of patients. Numeric Rating scale of pain (NRS) and Revised Oswestry Disability Index (ROLDI) was assessed in both the groups on the basis of pretreatment and post treatment scores.
Results: In both these groups exercise therapeutic plan or regime is same so it is clear that advanced programmed based electrotherapeutic interventions is more effective in giving good clinical prognosis not only in NRS scale but also in ROLDI scale. Clearly p value is less than 1% and it is almost equivalent to 0 level and rejection of null hypothesis is advocated strongly.
Conclusion: Advanced programmed based electrotherapeutic interventions and exercise therapeutic regime is better treatment approach as compared to conventional physiotherapeutic techniques and exercise therapeutic regime in treating chronic discogenic radiculitis.

A surgical site infection (SSI) occurs within 30 days after surgery. SSIs can present as deep infections affecting the muscle and fascia or superficial infections. Every year, between 160,000 and 300,000 people are diagnosed with surgical site infections. SSI causes a significant burden on healthcare systems. One of the most important strategies to avoid SSIs is antibiotic prophylaxis. The level of incidence of SSI that has persisted for several decades in spite of advances in prophylactic antibiotic therapy and preoperative bacterial decolonization. There is no doubt that rigorous adherence to numerous evidence-based interventions concerning perioperative sterility, technique, and prophylaxis are essential. This review highlights the significant impact of SSIs on patient morbidity, healthcare resources and the importance of preventive measures. It also emphasizes the need for adherence to infection prevention guidelines. Additionally, it stresses the role of antibiotic prophylaxis in preventing SSI and the challenges posed by multi drug resistant bacteria. It concludes that it is necessary to manage and prevent SSIs to improve patient outcomes and to reduce healthcare costs.

Theoretical substantiation of the requirements for an intelligent video monitoring system for analyzing the physiological state of cows and predicting its changes
Authors: Achilov V. V. , Olontsev V. A.
Published: December 2023

At  the  present  stage  of  development  of dairy farming, the main task facing the industry  is  the  effective  management  of  all processes that ensure the operation of a farm with a large livestock. This task will not be achievable without the use of digital intelligent  production  control  and  management systems, tracking the health of animals and their productivity.  There  are  many  systems that integrate into production and allow you to  monitor  the  health  of  cows  on  a  dairy farm. These systems are based on the identification,  tracking  and  collection  of  information about the physiological state of animals through various sensors. However, all these  systems  are  expensive,  demanding  to maintain, often fail due to aggressive operating conditions. The article considers the possibility of using an intelligent video monitoring system to analyze the physiological state of cows and predict its changes. To substantiate the requirements for an intelligent video monitoring system of the physiological state of cows, a mathematical model of the life of productive cows in the form of a graph of states is proposed. This method graphically displays the possible states of the system and their possible transitions from state to state. Having constructed a graph of states, relying on the central probability theorem for event flows, it is possible to determine the probability and intensity of state transitions using differential equations. For the functioning of the  video  monitoring  system  for  analyzing the physiological state of cows and predicting its changes,  the proposed  mathematical model can be the basis of the system and be based on the collection and analysis of video information  about  animal  behavior.  When covering the entire territory of the animal's living space with video cameras, the intelligent video monitoring system will be able to provide  early  diagnosis  of  changes  in  the physiological state of the observed animals and  issue  a  warning,  which  will  allow  for timely therapeutic and preventive measures.

Increasing  the  output  of  aquaculture products is an important condition for supporting food security in Russia and ensuring the  socio-economic  development  of  the  regions. One of the key factors for the sustainable functioning of trout farms is the timely and  effective  prevention  of  the  occurrence and spread of diseases in farmed fish [8,10]. The purpose of the presented study was to monitor the condition of rainbow trout based on the assessment of biochemical and morphological blood parameters in age dynamics to identify critical periods and develop an adaptogen  from  green  microalgae  for  the correction  of  metabolic  processes.  In  the presented study, the hematological status of rainbow trout was studied in the conditions of the fisheries of the Republic of Karelia. The study was conducted in the summer in 4 age groups. During the research, it was revealed that the age of trout significantly affects  the  biochemical  blood  levels  studied. As a result of the research, it was revealed that in the studied animals with age there is a significant increase in such biochemical parameters  as  ALT,  Total  protein,  albumin, and urea. Thus, during the monitoring of the biochemical  status  of  rainbow  trout  under aquaculture conditions, it was found that the condition  of  the  fish’s  body  worsens  with age,  which  is  reflected  in  the  biochemical parameters  of the blood, such as total protein, albumin, and urea. In this case, green microalgae  Chlorella  can  act  as  a  natural adaptogen  that  normalizes  blood  biochemical  parameters  due  to  the  high  content  of available carotenoids. It has been established that the pigments chlorophyll a (6.68 mg/g) and carotenoids (3.36%) accumulate in noticeable quantities in the biomass of.

Marek's disease is a dangerous immunosuppressive  viral  disease  of  poultry.  Most egg poultry farm in the Russian Federation vaccinate their chickens on the first day of life against this viral disease. Thanks to this vaccine prevention tactic, poultry farms protect  themselves  from  the  outbreak  of  this disease and economic damage. Traditionally, among  the  viruses  related  to  this  disease, there are the 1st serotype of the Marek's disease  virus  (Gallid  alphaherpesvirus  2)  and the 3rd serotype of the Marek's disease virus, which is not such in a strict taxonomic sense (Meleagrid  alphaherpesvirus  1,  also  called turkey herpesvirus). When poultry is infected, this virus causes a significant change in the expression of the main immunity genes (IL6,  PTGS2,  IRF7).  Based  on  the  results obtained, it was concluded that the expression of the IL6 and PTGS2 genes was slightly  higher  than  the  level  of  expression  of these genes in the control group. It is possible  that  local immunity  was  suppressed by the  immunosuppressive  properties  of  the Marek's  disease  virus.  When  studying  the expression of the IRF7 gene, a strong effect of viruses of both serotypes on this gene was found,  and  Gallid  alphaherpesvirus  2  exceeded the level of this effect compared to the  effect  of  Meleagrid  alphaherpesvirus  1 by 4 times. These results may indicate that sharply  increasing  expression  of  the  IRF7 gene may be a sign of Marek's disease virus replication (since Gallid alphaherpesvirus 2 and  Meleagrid  alphaherpesvirus  1  interact with the same cellular receptor, the vaccine effect  of  Meleagrid  alphaherpesvirus  1  is based  on  this).  On  the  other  hand,  we  can conclude that the introduction of these viruses does not cause inflammatory and immune reactions in the ileocecal tonsils of birds.

Published: December 2023

The  heart,  as  the  central  organ  of  the cardiovascular system, also has its own arterial lines to supply blood to its wall. Currently, the vascularization of the heart in animals has  not  been  sufficiently  studied,  there  are conflicting  facts  from  various  authors  of domestic  and  foreign  origin  regarding  the types of blood supply to the heart in various species  and  breeds  of  domestic  and  wild animals, and there are also inconsistencies in the  topography  of  the  branches  of  the  left and right coronary arteries. The brown bear is a common predator in the Russian Federation,  which  can  often  be  found  in  various public institutions for keeping animals. The purpose of this study is to study the architectonics of the left coronary artery in a brown bear. To study the anatomy of the heart, the corpses  of  brown  bears  aged  three  to  five years were taken. A total of six brown bear hearts were examined. To study the vascularization of the heart of the studied animals, classical and modern anatomical techniques were  carried  out,  such  as  fine  anatomical dissection  and  the  production  of  corrosive preparations using latex. As a result of the study, it was established that the brown bear has  a  predominantly  left  coronal  type  of blood  supply,  since  in  four  individuals  the left coronary artery vascularized the area of the  paraconal  groove,  subsinus  groove  and interventricular  septum.  But  at  the  same time,  it  can  also  be  assumed  that  a  brown bear may have a uniform type of blood supply to the heart, due to the fact that in two individuals the subsinus groove was supplied with blood by the right coronary artery.

It is known that the gut microbiota plays a central role in the health and biology of the animal, and is therefore important for scientific research. Microorganisms of the genus Lactobacllus  are  widespread  in  nature  and are considered representatives of the microflora  of  the  macroorganism  of  the  animal. Lactobacllus acidophilus is widely used as a probiotic, and is known for its immunostimulating effect, it colonizes the intestines of a newborn  and  accompanies  the  animal throughout its life. Enterococcus faecium is also used as a probiotic, due to its high antagonistic activity against pathogenic microbiota, and also participates in the formation and maintenance of immunity. The purpose of  this  study  was  to  evaluate  the  probiotic component of L. acidophilus 13, E. faecium k-50  in  conditions  simulating  the  gastrointestinal tract, to study the bacteriocinogenic potential and antagonistic properties of lactobacilli and enterococci and their composition.  In  this  review,  we  summarize  recent advances  in  understanding  the  mechanisms involved in bacterial tolerance to bile, with particular  emphasis  on  research  contributions. In addition, the physiological and ecological role of enzymes and their importance for animal health, as well as the function of bile  acid  as  a  regulator  of metabolism,  are discussed.

Η διδασκαλία του αρχαίου δράματος στα ελληνικά σχολεία της Σμύρνης είχε ενταχθεί ήδη πριν από την Ελληνική Επανάσταση του 1821, στην ύλη των αρχαίων ελληνικών. Μεταφράσεις και θεατρικές παραστάσεις αρχαίου δράματος στα ελληνικά σχολεία της Σμύρνης εντοπίζονται μετά τα μισά του 19ου αιώνα. Παρόλο που στο ρεπερτόριο των ελληνικών και ξένων θιάσων της εποχής εντοπίζονται παραστάσεις αρχαιόθεμων δραμάτων της κλασικίζουσας δραματουργίας με τον τίτλο Μήδεια, φαίνεται πως η παράσταση του ευριπίδειου δράματος στη Σμύρνη το 1898 είναι η πρώτη κατά τους νεώτερους χρόνους.

This study gives a brief overview of the two recorded performances of Euripides’ Medea by students at the Evangelical School in Smyrna, in 1898, directed by their teacher Antonios Voreadis. Ancient Greek drama was taught in the Greek Schools of Smyrna already before the Greek Revolution of 1821, in the syllabus of ancient Greek language. Translations and performances of ancient Greek drama in the Greek schools of Smyrna are recorded after the second half of the 19th century. Although a considerable number of dramas called Medea, western European offsprings of the ancient Greek prototype, are detected in the repertoire of the Greek and foreign troupes who gave performances in Greece and the cities where the Hellenic Diaspora lived and thrived at that time, the performances of 1898 in Smyrna seem to be the first recorded ones of the Euripidean tragedy in recent times.
My life: Napoleon Lapathiotis’ autobiography
Authors: Ιακωβίδου Σ.
Published: December 2023

Η αυτοβιογραφία του Ν. Λαπαθιώτη, αντί για ένα ολικό πορτρέτο του συγγραφέα, όπως μοιάζει να υπόσχεται ο τίτλος Η ζωή μου, προσφέρει μόνο μια επισκόπηση της χρυσής εποχής του βίου του, όταν το ζεύγος των γονιών ήταν ακόμη εν ζωή και η δική του ύπαρξη συνιστούσε μια διαρκή παράσταση σε φιλολογικούς και κοσμικούς κύκλους. Προσφέρει περισσότερο ένα πορτρέτο του δανδή σε νεαρή ηλικία. Το περιεχόμενό της ορίζεται σε μεγάλο βαθμό από το πλαίσιο που θέτει το οικογενειακό περιοδικό όπου πρωτοδημοσιεύτηκε, μαρτυρώντας την αδυναμία του να κάνει λόγο τόσο για τα κατοπινά χρόνια, όσο και για την ιδιωτική του ζωή.

My life, N. Lapathiotis’ autobiography, instead of providing a thorough analysis of his life and work as the title seems to imply, offers an overview of the golden era of his life, when his parents were still alive and his own existence was nothing but a continuous performance in literary and social cycles. It forms a portrait of the dandy as a young man. Being incapable to describe his later years as well as his private life, Lapathiotis succumbs to the limitations of the family magazine where his autobiography is published.
C. P. Cavafy’s subjective time
Authors: Πέτκου Έ.Χ.
Published: December 2023

Ο Κ. Π. Καβάφης γίνεται θησαυριστής στιγμών ενός χρόνου χαμένου, επιδιώκοντας στην ποίησή του τη σύζευξη των χρονικών διαστάσεων. Στην παρούσα μελέτη εξετάζεται πώς πραγματοποιείται η διαστολή της καβαφικής χρονικότητας τόσο στα ιστορικά ποιήματά του με την αξιοποίηση της «αντικειμενικής συστοιχίας» και με τη χρήση της ειρωνείας ή της αλληγορίας όσο και στα ερωτικά ποιήματα του με την ενεργοποίηση της ατομικής μνήμης. Μελετάται ακόμη η καβαφική διαλεκτική μεταξύ γήρατος και νεότητας και διερευνάται η ενσωμάτωση στην ποιητική του μελλοντικών ενατενίσεων και σκόπιμα επιλεγμένων ή επαναλαμβανόμενων χρονικών σημάνσεων και δομών, που εξυπηρετούν ευφυείς σκηνοθετικές επιλογές ή τη δραματικότητα της γραφής του. Προάγοντας την αντίληψη του χρόνου ως ατομικού βιώματος, ο υποκειμενικός χρόνος του Καβάφη εύλογα μπορεί να συσχετιστεί με την έννοια της χρονικότητας των Ε. Husserl, H. Bergson και M. Heidegger, του Αγίου Αυγουστίνου και του T. S. Eliot.

Cavafy becomes treasurer of the moments of a lost time, seeking in his poetry the coupling of temporal dimensions. This study examines how Cavafy’s expansion of temporality is realized both in his historical poems through the use of the “objective array”, the use of irony or allegory, and in his love poems through the activation of individual memory. In addition, Cavafy’s dialectic between old age and youth is studied, and the incorporation in his poetics of future reflections and deliberately chosen or repeated temporal markings and structures, which serve ingenious staging choices or his dramatical writing, is explored. Cavafy’s poetry projects a conception of time as an individual experience and consequently his subjective time can be reasonably related to the notion of temporality of E. Husserl, H. Bergson and M. Heidegger, St. Augustine and T. S. Eliot.

Kritika institucionalnog obrazovanja u misli Ivana Illicha
Authors: Hostić Bernard
Published: December 2023

U članku se istražuje kritika institucionalnog načina obrazovanja formirana od strane Ivana Illicha, svjetski poznatog mislioca druge polovice 20. st., koji je svoju društvenu kritiku implementirao na mnoga područja modernog društva: medicinu, obrazovanje, ekologiju, poslovnu etiku i gender raspravu. Razrada članka sastoji se od četiri dijela. Prvi dio osvjetljava Illichevo poimanje institucija tj. »ideju otuđenja« koja se nalazi u temelju gotovo svih njegovih opservacija i kritika. Drugi dio donosi pregled glavnih elemenata Illicheve kritike školstva i tako čini okosnicu cijelog članka. Treći dio prikazuje moguća rješenja tj. prijedloge realizacije prisutne u njegovim djelima i esejima. Četvrti dio sadrži usporedbu Illicheve pedagogije sa sve popularnijim waldorfskim načinom obrazovanja iz koje proizlaze moguće poveznice s idejama Rudolfa Steinera. Cilj članka je na temelju obrađene kritike i ideja zaključiti vrijednost i aktualnost Illicheve misli vezane uz institucionalno obrazovanje.

Effects of porous medium filling on thermally developing forced convection in a parallel plate channel
Authors: Baig Mirza Farrukh
Published: December 2023

This study obtains the semi-analytical solutions and explores the thermal characteristics of a thermally developing flow in a parallel plate channel, partially filled with a porous medium at the core, while considering local thermal non-equilibrium conditions, and viscous dissipation for the first time. The developing temperature field, for a porous medium filling of volume fraction fixed at 0.9, indicates an increasing difference in temperature between the solid and fluid phases with the axial distance. Besides, heat flux bifurcation starts in the entrance region as more heat diffuses to the solid at the interface, more markedly with a decreasing Darcy number, Da. When the thermal transport is dominated by interstitial heat transfer between solid and fluid in the porous medium, the thermal entrant length is the shortest. An increasing amount of porous medium filling with such quality and an increasing Da tend to shorten the thermal entry length. Nonetheless, as a lower Da porous media convects more heat away from the interface, it expedites the thermal development in cases where interstitial heat transfer in porous medium is poor. With an increasing porous medium fraction, the impact of viscous dissipation on heat transfer magnifies at the entrance region, thereby reducing the effectiveness of porous medium insert.

Authors: Moga Andreea Anamaria
Published: December 2023

The cherry is a fruit tree with economic importance, due to its nutritional proprieties, technological and commercial, in Romania finding good conditions for growth and production. The study was conducted at Research Station for Fruit Growing Constanta (RSFG Constanta), in a cherry plot planted in 2020. The objective of the study was to evaluate the orchard, in the climatic conditions of the South-East Romania of some cultivar/rootstock combinations. Ten cherry cultivars, created in Romania, or newly introduced in our country were studied, grafted on two vegetative rootstocks: IPC5 and IPC7. In the two years of the study (2021-2022), observations were made on growth vigor, tree height and on the number of anticipated shoots for each combination studied cultivar/rootstock. In terms of growth vigor, the highest average trunk diameter was recorded for the Daria/IPC7 30.56 mm. The highest average length of shoots was noted in the cherry cultivars Cociuvas and Daria grafted on the rootstock IPC7, which were 129 cm and 118 cm, respectively.
