Właściwości prozdrowotne i mechanizmy działania beta-glukanów zbożowych
Authors: Kopiasz Łukasz
Published: November 2019

Beta-glukany to polisacharydy zbudowane z jednostek D-glukozy połączonych wiązaniami beta-glikozydowymi. Związki te są obecne w różnych produktach spożywczych, takich jak zboża, grzyby, drożdże czy wodorosty. Pochodzące ze zbóż beta-glukany są liniowymi polimerami dobrze rozpuszczalnymi w wodzie, które wykazują szereg prozdrowotnych właściwości. W niniejszej pracy dokonano przeglądu najnowszej literatury dotyczącej korzystnego wpływu beta-glukanów obecnych w zbożach na organizm ludzi i zwierząt oraz mechanizmów ich działania. Powszechnie wiadomo, że związki te skutecznie obniżają poziom cholesterolu i zmniejszają glikemię poposiłkową, co umożliwiło dopuszczenie stosowania oświadczeń zdrowotnych na produktach spożywczych zawierających odpowiednie ilości beta-glukanów pochodzących z owsa i/lub jęczmienia. Ponadto jest wiele dowodów wskazujących na silne właściwości immunomodulujące i przeciwzapalne tych związków, które wydają się być szczególnie istotne w terapii coraz powszechniej występujących, nieswoistych zapaleń jelit. Nieliczne badania z ostatnich lat wykazały również działanie prebiotyczne i przeciwnowotworowe tych polisacharydów.

Published: November 2019

W ostatnich latach wzrosło zainteresowanie stylem życia osób starszych, w tym żywieniem, jednak nadal niedostateczna jest wiedza o specyfice żywienia tej grupy populacyjnej zamieszkującej wieś. W przeprowadzonym badaniu własnym zauważono częste spożycie mięsa i wędlin, potraw smażonych, słodyczy oraz częste dodawanie cukru do produktów i napojów, co najbardziej było widoczne u mężczyzn. Znacząca większość badanych nie dysponowała odpowiednimi środkami finansowymi na zakup żywności. Najczęstszymi czynnikami decydującymi o wyborze żywności przez badane osoby były względy smakowe, przyzwyczajenia, cena produktów, względy zdrowotne, łatwość dostępu, reklama. W badanej grupie osób starszych stwierdzono wiele nieprawidłowych zachowań żywieniowych, stanowiących ryzyko niedożywienia lub zespołu metabolicznego, co w efekcie może prowadzić do pogorszenia jakości ich życia. Konieczne zatem wydaje się podejmowanie wszelkich działań edukacyjnych skierowanych do osób starszych mieszkających na wsi oraz ich opiekunów, ale także zwrócenie uwagi lekarzy na ten problem.

Studies on the storage stability of white beet sugar depending on its quality
Authors: Bruhns Philipp , Koch Timo , Kroh Lothar
Published: November 2019

Storage stability of white beet sugar is an important factor determining the sugar quality. Due to color formation during storage the sugar color can exceed the quality criteria of the European council directive 2001/111/EC for white sugar. It is not possible to predict the color formation tendency of a white sugar lot at the time of its production. Also the source and the mechanism of color formation during storage are unknown. Color formation in general can be caused by several factors, which can be divided into external influences such as humidity and temperature during storage and internal causes such as contents of ash, polyphenols, mono- and oligosaccharides, and amino compounds.
In this work, the effect of the above mentioned factors and the nature of the formed colorants were analyzed. Studies on the color distribution in sugar crystals were carried out and the nonsucrose compounds in the surface film were determined. The syrup film on the crystal surface contains the same compounds and in similar contents as thick juice. A correlation between the changes in the amino acid and monosaccharide content and the color formation was established, which shows that the Maillard reaction is responsible for the color development during storage of sugar.
A new lapsiine jumping spider from North America, with a review of Simon’s Lapsias species (Araneae, Salticidae, Spartaeinae)
Authors: Maddison Wayne P.
Published: November 2019

A new spider genus and species from México and Guatemala, Amilaps mayanagen. et sp. nov., is described, distinct from other members of the jumping spider tribe Lapsiini (subfamily Spartaeinae) by its four retromarginal cheliceral teeth and the large sclerite cradling the embolus. It is the first living lapsiine known outside of South America. This tribe has received attention recently for new species and genera in Ecuador and Brazil, but Simon’s original four species of Lapsias, described from Venezuela in 1900 and 1901, remain relatively poorly known. Accordingly, new illustrations of Simon’s type material are given, and a lectotype is designated for L. cyrboides Simon, 1900. The three forms of females in Simon’s material from Colonia Tovar, Aragua, are reviewed and illustrated, and they are a tentatively matched with the three male lectotypes of his species from the same location.
Radiographic method for evaluation of tarsus morphometry
Authors: Akbar Z. , Al-Juhaishi O.A. , Olusa T.A.O. , Davies H.M.S.
Published: November 2019

The equine tarsus is the most common area of the hind limb associated with lameness. Tarsal function is probably directly related to its conformation. Previous conformational measurement methods and radiological data are either limited or too specific to explain the complex tarsus conformation in different loading conditions. This study aimed to develop a consistent method to evaluate equine tarsal conformation from lateromedial radiographs. Twenty cadaveric hind limbs from 15 adult horses of different breeds were cut at the distal one third of the tibia. Hind limbs mounted in a loading rig and positioned with the metatarsus vertical were digitally radiographed. The zero-degree lateromedial (ZLM) was defined by vertical and horizontal landmarks including overlapping of the lateral and medial trochlea of the talus and a contact point between the dorsal edges of lateral and medial borders of the distal central tarsal bone. Radiographs missing these features were retaken to achieve consistent ZLM views. Specific radiographic features were selected as landmarks to develop tarsal parameters based on their clarity and their being consistently identifiable. The intra-rater repeatability of ten measurable morphometric parameters was evaluated with each radiograph measured twice with an interval of at least one month and Bland-Altman plots developed from this data. Repeat measurements did not differ significantly (Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) ranged from 0.731-0.966). This study provides a base for evaluation of the tarsal conformation by radiography.
Labor market sorting and health insurance system design
Authors: Aizawa Naoki
Published: November 2019

This paper develops and estimates a life‐cycle equilibrium labor search model in which heterogeneous firms determine health insurance provisions and heterogeneous workers sort themselves into jobs with different compensation packages over the life cycle. I study the optimal joint design of major policies in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and the implications of targeting these policies to certain individuals. Compared with the health insurance system under the ACA, the optimal structure lowers the tax benefit of employer‐sponsored health insurance and makes individual insurance more attractive to younger workers. Through changes in firms' insurance provisions, a greater number of younger workers sort into individual markets, which contributes to improving the risk pool in individual insurance and lowering the uninsured risk.
Dealing with inequality in mobility: Tactics, strategies and projects for poor households on the outskirts of Paris
Authors: Jouffe Yves , Caubel David , Fol Sylvie , Motte-Baumvol Benjamin
Published: November 2019

Many poor households cannot meet the requirements of automotive mobility. They suffer great inequalities in their daily mobility, especially when they live away from urban centers, in areas where the provision of public transport and local amenities are reduced. Nevertheless, a normative interpretation in terms of shortages, based on the observation of low mobility capacity, underestimates the concrete mobility practices of poor households, and secondly how these households bypass the injunction of mobility required of them. This set of alternative practices – be they tactics, strategies, and projects – can substitute expensive automotive mobility with a set of resources drawn fundamentally from spatial proximity. This article aims to analyze the diversity of these practices, their quantitative importance and nesting, for the case of Paris suburban and periurban areas. To conclude, it draws how the variety of adjustments exhibited by poor households could be taken into account by public action.keywords : daily mobility, poverty, spatial inequality, social inequality, stakeholder, territorial policies

A SERVIÇO DA IGREJA E DA COROA – MISSIONAÇÃO, DOMESTICAÇÃO E COLONIZAÇÃO: OS FRANCISCANOS E OS GENTIOS (1585-1619)
Authors: Mainka Peter Johann
Published: November 2019

A Ordem de São Francisco com a sua experiência e metodologia missionária, adquirida na África, Ásia e no México, chegou, de forma institucional, em 1585, no início da União Ibérica, para o Brasil – a serviço da Igreja Católica e da Coroa (espanhol-) portuguesa (união de cruz e espada). Desde o início, os franciscanos dedicaram-se, por um lado, à missionação e conversão dos géntios no Nordeste do Brasil, defendendo os direitos dos indígenas, contribuindo, por outro lado, com a sua atuação missionária, domesticadora e civilizadora para a colonização e a consolidação do sistema colonial no Brasil em concorrência com a Companhia de Jesus. Defendendo os direitos dos indígenas, os franciscanos sofreram as críticas e pressões dos colonos e das autoridades seculares, perdendo, finalmente, as suas competências temporais sobre as aldéias indígenas. Com base na historiografia franciscana, ainda hoje pouco utilizada, e referências bibliográficas atuais, este artigo analisa a atuação dos franciscanos, posicionados entre os indígenas e os colonos, no processo colonizador do Brasil.

Published: November 2019

Esse texto trata de uma experiência investigativa e de extensão acadêmica na área da educação popular, que busca investigar o processo de construção dos sentidos do trabalho feminino e sua relação com a categorização de gênero, a partir das histórias de vida dessas mulheres aliada com a produção artesanal produzida por cada participante. Para isso, construiu-se um espaço de educação não-formal para a produção artesanal, onde as memórias dos grupos são resgatadas não apenas a partir da oralidade, mas também na produção concreta do artesanato, de forma coletiva e solidária. O trabalho vem sendo realizado há mais de três anos com grupos de mulheres assentadas participantes do Movimento de Trabalhadores Rurais Sem Terra – MST, no interior da cidade de Pinheiro Machado, no estado do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. Neste período, é possível percebermos a construção e o fortalecimento de uma coletividade, onde se desconstrói parâmetros historicamente construídos, buscando ressignificar o feminino num processo de aprendizagem. Esse texto aborda, inicialmente, a proposta educativa da educação popular como pano de fundo para compreender os movimentos sociais, especialmente o MST. Após, busca-se demonstrar a importância do artesanato no trabalho que vem sendo realizado com as mulheres assentadas para, na sequência, apresentar aspectos mais específicos da investigação encaminhada, problematizando a divisão sexual do trabalho das mulheres do campo, apresentando alguns achados.

Authors: Miranda Fernanda Rodrigues de
Published: November 2019

O artigo se compõe de três partes. Na primeira, traço alguns paralelos entre a obra Ponciá Vicêncio, de Conceição Evaristo, frente a outros romances de autoras negras brasileiras, sinalizando a contiguidade de um conjunto disperso, porém comunicante, de obras que se cruzam pelo gênero romanesco e pela autoria de mulheres negras – como o pioneiro Úrsula, de Maria Firmina dos Reis, publicado no século XIX; Água funda (1946), de Ruth Guimarães, primeiro romance de uma autora negra publicado depois do fim da escravidão; Pedaços da fome (1963) e Diário de Bitita (1986), ambos de Carolina Maria de Jesus; As mulheres de Tijucopapo (1982), de Marilene Felinto e Um defeito de cor (2006), de Ana Maria Gonçalves. Em um segundo momento abordo o conceito de escrevivência, observando sua localização limítrofe entre ficção, realismo e autobiografia, salientando que fortuna crítica do conceito gera uma ampliação dos seus respectivos alcances. Por fim, destaco algumas linhas de força da obra, visando frisar sua potência narrativa de forjar e tornar visíveis contramemórias coloniais da nação.

Cell phone is an easy, fast and convenient device for communication. The main purpose of the study was to determine the extent of use of Cell Phone in receiving agricultural information and to explore the relationship between the selected characteristics of the farmers in using Cell Phone for receiving agricultural information. Data were obtained from 97 Cell Phone user farmers in selected village named Chorjamalpur of Boyra union under Singair upazila of Manikganj through face-to-face interview. Appropriate scales were developed in order to measure the concerned variables. Pearson Product Moment Correlation test was used to ascertain the relationship between each of the selected characteristics of the farmers with their use of Cell Phone for receiving agricultural information. The finding shows that 89.7 percent of the respondents had no use to low use of Cell Phone for receiving agricultural information and 10.3 percent of the respondents had medium use to high use of Cell Phone for receiving agricultural information. The finding clearly indicates the ignorance of the respondents about the use of Cell Phone for receiving agricultural information. Among 11 selected characteristics of the farmers, eight characteristics namely, education, land possession, effective farm size, annual family income, agricultural training exposure, organizational participation, innovativeness, cosmopoliteness showed significant and positive relationship with their use of Cell Phone. Problem confrontation of the farmers in using Cell Phone showed significant negative relationship with their use of Cell Phone for receiving agricultural information. But age of the farmers and farming experience of the farmers showed non significant relationship with the use of Cell Phone by the farmers.

Expected Winning Probabilities in Sequential Truels under Uniform Distributions
Authors: Hare David R , Kaleem Faisal
Published: November 2019

In this paper we examine the expected probabilities of survival of each of the three participants in sequential truels assuming uniform distributions for their marksmanships. We start by discussing the two most common sequential truels, one in which everyone has to attempt to eliminate someone on each turn, and the other in which the weakest marksman has the option to abstain. We conjecture that the expected winning probabilities in sequential truels cannot be calculated analytically, and so we estimate these probabilities using multiple computational approaches. We also calculate the expected winning probabilities of each of the participants for one fixed marksmanship at a time. At the end we show that as the three marksmanships approach 0, the sequential truel approaches the simultaneous truel and this explains some aspects of the sequential truel for small marksmanships.
ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL ASPECTS
OF AIR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT IN POLISH AIRSPACE
Authors: Markiewicz, PhD Assoc. Prof. Telesfor Marek
Published: November 2019

The article discusses selected provisions of EU aviation law concerning economic
issues of air traffic management. This process in European airspace is carried out by
air navigation service providers, which, unlike airport operators and air carriers, have
a monopolistic position and do not operate under market conditions. Consequently,
the lack of competition between air navigation service providers replaces the common
charging system for airspace users established by European Union law. In order to
increase the cost-effectiveness of the services provided while maintaining a high level
of safety of air operations, the navigation charges system was linked to the parallel
implementation of the Single European Sky performance scheme for air navigation
services in 2010. In 2019, the rules governing both systems were consolidated into
a single legal act. The study also looks at the basic indicators of economic efficiency
of air traffic management based on the example of the Polish Air Navigation Agency.

This article describes the process of recognising and acquiring new capabilities in
the frame of operational planning process. It refers to the changes in the operational
environment which can be observed nowadays. Educating senior officers is
a process which requires proper tools, techniques, methods and approach. War Studies
University tries to respond to these appearing needs in the field of operational planning
process, especially in understanding the operational environment. The article looks at
the elements of this process. Implementing the design thinking may possibly be an
offer that has to be tested. A general overview of the testing model is the aim of the
second part of this article. A description of the experimental model includes control
and experimental group, dependent and independent variables. Additionally, selected
tools are presented. The conduct of the pilot research to verify methods and the way
of conducting the experiment is also predicted. The article also refers to the problems
of cultural adaptation of the scenario. First of all, the scenario has to be of complex
context. This is the consequence of used typology of the operational environment. In
the Cynefin framework, environment is divided into four types: simple, complicated,
complex and chaotic. The article underlines the meaning of the research concerning
the design thinking, as a divergent approach, in the process of implementing this into
operational planning.
DEVELOPMENT OF THE IT SYSTEM SUPPORTING
THE MANAGEMENT OF THE TRANSPORT
AND MOVEMENT SYSTEM OF THE ARMED FORCES
OF THE REPUBLIC OF POLAND
Authors: BYŁEŃ, PhD Sławomir
Published: November 2019

For almost a decade since joining NATO, the armed forces did not have an information
system supporting the management of their own transport system. For military logistics, the
implementation and operation of an IT system supporting the work of transport and army
forces was of significant importance from the point of view of improving the efficiency
of the logistics system. The progressiveness of this article is manifested in the fact that in
addition to the characteristics, role and tasks of the system presented in previous studies,
the author additionally carried out research, evaluated the functioning and presented
directions of development of the IT system code named CONVOY. The significance
of the system has even increased since NATO decided to strengthen its eastern flank in
2016. Consequently, this has resulted in an increased number of convoys on the roads that
must be accompanied by competent transport and troop movement in order to be there.
IT system CONVOY allows this process to be speeded up by electronic reconciliation,
development and issuance of road traffic permits and monitoring them in real time.
CHANGE OF ACCURACY DUE TO BARRELS INTERCHANGEABILITY IN THE MODULAR SMALL ARMS SYSTEM
Authors: Goździk Dawid , Kijewski Jacek , Koperski Wojciech , Kupidura Przemysław , Zahor Mirosław
Published: November 2019

Rifles of MSBS-5.56 system are equipped with a mechanism for an easy barrel changing, what was one of basic assumptions of system modularity. But barrel changing, although possible even under field conditions (with the use of basic tools), causes displacement of shot pattern mean point. Due to the fact that the sights are mounted on the upper receiver, it is important that this displacement is as small as possible. In order to determine the mean value of displacements for the pattern mean point and the construction parameters affecting them, a series of firings were performed using a laboratory stand and shooting range. Both repeatability of fixing the same barrel (ex-changeability) and other barrels (inter-changeability) were taken into account.

Published: November 2019

Eliciting emotions, particularly uncomfortable emotions, through exhibition design can have a positive impact on the patrons’ reception of the exhibition. In this study, patrons visiting an exhibition designed to create a dark and macabre atmosphere were given an exit survey asking them to identify and rate the intensity of the emotions they felt during the experience. The survey also assessed visitor likelihood of returning to view the exhibition again. In general, visitors who recorded feeling negative emotions while viewing the exhibition were significantly more likely to visit multiple times than those who did not.
STRUCTURAL MODEL OF EFFICIENCY OF COVALENT FUNCTIONALIZATION OF CARBON NANOTUBES
Authors: Kozlov Georgii V. , Dolbin Igor V.
Published: November 2019

Functionalization of carbon nanotubes (covalent and noncovalent ones) is effective and often applied method of enhancement of their interaction with polymer matrix of nanocomposites. In present work the treatment is proposed, for the first time allowing quantitative estimation of efficiency (quality) of this nanofiller functionalization. For this purpose proposed earlier generalized model was used, taking into consideration characteristics of matrix polymer and nanofiller and also type of the last. Application of the indicated model allows to obtain quantitative characteristic of functionalization efficiency and also elucidation of interconnection of the indicated efficiency with structure of carbon nanotubes in polymer matrix of nanocomposite, namely, with radius of their annular structures. It has been found that the same method of functionalization from the chemical point of view can be changed its efficiency in 20 times that is dependent upon structure (radius) of annular formations of carbon nanotubes. Their specific surface is the more precise characteristic of these formations. This surface serves as indicator of intensity of contact of polymer matrix and surface of nanotubes, which in the end forms mechanical and other properties of the considered nanocomposites. The equation has been obtained, showing the dependence of functionalization efficiency on two parameters: effective specific surface and content of carbon nanotubes. The sharp discrete reduction of functionalization occurs at reaching of percolation threshold of nanofiller. This means that functionalization of local structures of carbon nanotubes is more effective than functionalization of uninterrupted structures of this nanofiller. The most important mechanical property of polymer nanocomposites, namely, the reinforcement degree, is defined unequivocally by efficiency of functionalization. This approach allows making structural prediction of mechanical properties of nanocomposites polymer/carbon nanotube depending of efficiency of nanofiller functionalization.

Aim. In the second half of the 20th and the beginning of the 21st century, there were significant changes in the hemp growing that affected the improvement of morphological, biological and economic properties, by providing the opportunity, on the example of new varieties, to declare the creation of a new subset of sown hemp in which the main achievements of breeders and seedlings were accumulated. Methods. With the creation of the Institute of Bast Crops, scientific breeding has begun, based on improved and developed new breeding methods that include several significant steps as increasing of the yield of created monoecious form, as the elimination of their narcotic properties. Results. For the first time in the world, non-drug hemp that can produce high yields of straw, fiber and seeds while maintaining immunity to damage to pests and diseases were created. Conclusions. Responding to the doubts of tax of collectors and botanists about the classification of the hemp family, we share the opinion of the first scientists and our teachers that include Cannabis sativa L. and Cannabis indica L. to one species of Cannabis sativa L., combining all kinds and varieties. The elimination of a number of high-yielding varieties of non-drug monoecious hemp, which became the result of long-term breeding, testifies the creation of a new variety of Cannabis sativa L. convar non-narcotic Vyrovets, emphasizing the leadership and executive role of Professor V. Vyrovets during a long selection process.

Aim. The purpose of the research is to determine the manifestation of the feature “seed weight from a plant” (the, parental forms) and hybrids, to establish the level of variability behind the soybean varieties in the F2–F5 hybrid combinations, to determine the effectiveness of selections for productivity in terms of the “seed weight from a plant” indicator from the hybrid populations of the F2–F5. Methods. The field, selection and genetic, calculation and comparative methods of the research were used. The varieties that are different in terms of fecundity and origin, also hybrids F1 and hybrid populations F2–F5 were studied. Selections on the basis of the “seed weight from a plant” were carried out in the F2–F5 populations. Results. It has been established that in soy characteristic “seed mass from a plant” has significant genotypic variability and has significant differences in varieties of different groups of ripeness, which may be a prerequisite for predicting the effective selection for this factorial trait. A high correlation of this trait with seed yield was also established. The proportion of the families from the selections, that were carried out in the F3 populations, exceeded the seed yield standard and was in the range of 28.0–37.5%. In the second generation of hybrids the efficiency of selection was 1.5–2 times lower. Conclusions. The highest yield of high-yielding genotypes, reached by the “seed mass from a plant” indicator was obtained from the F3 populations. To create the new high-yielding soybean varieties with a 3.5–5.5 t/ha yield under irrigation conditions, it is promising to use in the crossings the variety samples which are contrastive by groups of ripeness and genetic pedigree. Keywords: variety, soybean, hybrid, population, yield, irrigation.

Physiological and biochemical analysis of transgenic wheat plants of seed generation T2 with double-stranded RNA suppressor of the proline dehydrogenase gene
Authors: Kulesh S. S. , Dubrovna O. V. , Slivka L. V.
Published: November 2019

Aim. To carry out physiological and biochemical analysis of genetically modified plants of bread wheat of seed generation T2 with the double-stranded RNA suppressor of the proline dehydrogenase gene. Methods. Biochemical determination of free L-proline content and activity of the enzyme proline dehydrogenase; physiological examination of plant growth in vitro and in vivo. Results. It has been shown that transgenic plants, in contrast to control groups, grow more intensively in a selective medium with mannitol, maintaining a green color. It has been established that under normal conditions and under conditions of water deficit, plants of the T2 have an elevated level of free proline in the leaves, compared with the control genotypes. It was found that transformants are characterized by reduced activity of the enzyme of proline dehydrogenase, which manifests itself when the norm-stress-norm conditions change. Transgenic T2 plants had a higher resistance to aqueous deficiency compared to baseline, which was reflected in the nature of their growth. In conditions of soil moisture shortage, the yield of the most of the transformed lines was significantly higher than non-transformed plants. Conclusions. The obtained results allow us to conclude that the use of the pBi2E vector construct with the double-stranded RNA suppressor of the pdh gene is effective for the production of transgenic bread wheat plants with a high level of resistance to water deficiency.

Induction of breeding-valuable mutations in Triticum aestivum L. under the influence of physical and chemical mutagenic factors of the environment
Authors: Morgun V. V. , Yakymchuk R. A.
Published: November 2019

Aim. The use of induced mutagenesis opens greater possibilities to drastically improve cultivated plants genetically.  The areas of local and mass anthropogenic pollution have unique conditions of the effect of mutagenic factors, and they require the studying of their possible use while developing parental material for winter wheat breeding. The induction frequency of breeding-valuable mutations in Triticum aestivum L., affected by the contamination with physical and chemical mutagenic factors of the environment, was studied. Methods. The choice of mutants was made in М2 and М3 generations, using record techniques and separating visible mutations, phonological observations, biometric indicator analysis. Results. The pollutants of the environment cause the frequency increase of breeding-valuable mutations in T. aestivum L. by 7.5–12.5 times under the effect of the contamination with natural radioisotopes of the area of uranium ore mining, by 2.1–19.7 times – with heavy metals of industrial enterprises, and 4.1–9.8 times – with pesticides, prohibited and not suitable for use, and toxic wastes in the places of their storage. Spectrum is predominantly represented with low-grown forms, forms with intensive growth, a long-cylindrical spike, and it depends on the nature of a polluting agent and a genotype of a plant. Conclusions. The increase of frequency and the broadening of spectrum of breeding-valuable mutations, due to the induced mutagenesis with the environmental pollution, make it possible to use it for the implementation of breeding-genetic programs aimed at improving wheat cultivars.

Assessment of functional relationships between acids and neutral compounds of canabinoids in modern monoecious varieties of Cannabis sativa L.
Authors: Polyakova A. S.
Published: November 2019

Aim. The research was aimed at determining the correlation between neutral substances and acids in varieties of Cannabis sativa L. Methods. Taking into account lability and isomerization of cannabinoids under the influence of various factors, the TLC method was used for preserving the naturally formed ratio of cannabinoids without disturbing their qualitative and quantitative interrelations. Results. In the hemp variety YuSO 1 excluded from breeding work to reduce the content of neutral substances, varieties of French selection – Fedora 17 and Futura 77 with relatively high content of cannabinoids and with varieties of hemp Zolotonis’ky 15 and Viktoriya with reduced or absent content of neutral substances, high interdependence between neutral compounds and acids was determined. In the varieties of hemp YuSO 31, Hlyana, Hlukhivs’ky 46 insufficient selections for reducing the content of neutral substances led to a violation of the formed relationships between acids and neutral substances. Correlation interdependence was negative. Conclusions. The determined correlation between neutral substances and acids in cannabis varieties indicates the existing biologically determined dependence between them taking into account natural acids.

Related to Ppd-1 and Vrd gene systems peculiarities of initial development rate in new European winter bread wheat cultivars
Authors: Stelmakh A. F. , Fayt V. I.
Published: November 2019

Aim. Vernalization response and photosensitivity were evaluated in some new cultivars originating from West European countries. Methods. Vrd and Ppd-1gene effects were measured by comparing numbers of days to heading at planting in natural and 10-hours photoperiods after preliminary green seedling vernalization of various duration. Those genes inheritance was studied under environment combinations securing the division of their effects. Results. Studied gene effects were inherited as partially dominant with additive-epistatic interactions. Evaluated stocks characterized often by durable vernalization requirement and photosensitivity presence differing essentially from modern Ukrainian cultivars. Conclusions. We call in question the assertion of leading Ukrainian breeders that strong physiological reactions of initial development delay are the factors limiting the modern productivity level in winter bread wheat.
