Authors: Hundertmark Megan E. , Waring Stephen C. , Stenehjem David D. , MacDonald Danielle A. , Sperl David D. , Yapel Ann , Brown Jacob T. 
Published: August 2020

Background: While pharmacists are well positioned to implement pharmacogenomic testing in healthcare systems, uptake has been limited.
Objective: The primary objective of this survey was to determine how post-graduate education and training influences pharmacist’s knowledge and attitudes of pharmacogenomic testing.
Methods: Survey questions were developed by the study team, and responses were collected electronically using REDCapTM. The electronic survey was sent to all pharmacists (n=161) within a large, multi-state healthcare system by email.
Results: A total of 75 (47%) respondents completed all aspects of the survey. The majority of respondents were female (60%), worked in acute care settings (57%), were full-time employees (80%), and worked in an urban area (85%), with many graduating in or after 2010 (43%). For post-graduate education, 36% of respondents completed a Post-Graduate Year One Residency (PGY-1), and 27% had a board certification. Those that completed a PGY-1 residency were significantly more likely to have received formal training or education on pharmacogenomics than those who had not. They also assessed their own knowledge of pharmacogenomic resources and guidelines higher than those without PGY-1 training. More recent graduates were also significantly more likely to have received formal training or education on pharmacogenomics. Additionally, pharmacists who completed a PGY-1 residency were more likely to respond favorably to pharmacogenomics being offered through pharmacy services. Pharmacists with board certification were more comfortable interpreting results of a pharmacogenomic test than those without board certification.
Conclusions: Pharmacists who have completed a PGY-1 residency or received board certification appear more comfortable with interpretation and implementation of pharmacogenomic testing.

Fodder beet gene pool from the VIR collection: diversity, potential
Authors: Sokolova D. V. 
Published: August 2020

Relevance.As a source of juicy feed for livestock, fodder beet plays a leading role among fodder root crops. It plays an important role to solve the problem of improving domestic feed production, since the production of fodder beet is the most balanced in terms of carbohydrate and protein complex. A large number of feed units from the area of sowing in a complex with a high yield, a balanced mineral complex and the possibility of long-term storage makes the crop in demand for the livestock complex in Russia. The VIR fodder beet collection has a rich gene pool and, given the lack of varieties and hybrids in the State Register of the Russian Federation, is a source of raw material for domestic breeding.The purposeofthe study is to identify the potential of the collection of fodder beet in the most important areas of modern crop selection.Materials and methods. The experiment involved a representative sample of 190 accessions that were grown in the vegetable crop rotation of the Research and Production Base of Pushkin Laboratories of the VIR from 2015 to 2019. Description and biochemical studies were carried out according to the VIR Guidelines.Results.The characteristics of fodder beet cultivars with signs of high yield, productivity, resistance to abiotic and biotic factors, suitability for mechanized harvesting and storability were given. There was a manifestation of axenium resistance of the culture to cercosporosis due to morphophysiological characteristics of the leaf apparatus of plants.Conclusions.The VIR fodder beet collection has a wide variety and well-studied gene pool, which is the potential to create the modern varieties and hybrids of crops with a complex of economically valuable characteristics, which are necessary for their high-tech production.

Published: August 2020

Relevance.The contribution of varietal and environmental factors to the variability of the length of the endosperm and the embryo of carrot seeds was studied.Materials and methods.The objects of study were the original seeds of Rogneda, Lubava and Chernozemochka, Chantene 2461 and Boyarynya varieties. The seeds were grown at the Voronezh and West Siberian experimental stations. The linear dimensions of the seed and endosperm were measured using a caliper. The length of the embryo was measured using a microscope (Micromed) and a video eyepiece (DCM 300 MD) at х40 magnification. Statistical processing of the research data two-factor experiment was carried out using analysis of variance. Differences in the compared parameters were considered statistically significant at p 0.05.Results.The linear dimensions of all the main elements of seeds, as well as the index of Ie/z on average for three years significantly differed in the studied carrot varieties (P < 0.001). The maximum length of the seed (3.14±0.02 mm), the length of the endosperm (2.66±0.02 mm) and the length of the embryo (1.23±0.03 mm) on average for three years was observed in the Rogneda variety. The average coefficient of variation (V) of seed length was minimal and varied from 10.1% to 12.9%. The average values of the coefficient of variation (V) for the length of the endosperm varied in a wider range from 12.0% to 14.6%. The length of the embryo had a maximum level of variability from 18.7% in the Rogneda variety to 20.3% in the Chernozemochka variety 21.3%. The variety factor had a predominant influence (from 50.8 % to 86.5 %) on the size of the seed and its morphological elements. The contribution of the environmental conditions of the year of reproduction to the formation of morphometric parameters did not exceed 22.3 %. This allowed us to draw a conclusion about the prospects of selection and the possibility of selective changes in the morphological parameters of the seed.

Authors: Putina O. V. , Besedin A. G. 
Published: August 2020

Relevance.The aim of the work is to define the adaptive ability and environmental plasticity of pea genotypes of different ripeness groups which were selected in Krymsk EBS VIR Branch in special conditions of Krasnodar region.Materials and methods.Eleven pea varieties and one pea strain were sown for studying in fields of Krymsk EBS VIR Branch in 2013-2017. The area of the plot was 10 m2. Each variety was sown three times. The recording of the harvest was made in period of industrial ripeness. The share of influence of different factors on the yield of pea was defined with the help of mathematical methods. The differential ability of environmental and adaptive ability of genotypes, stability and environmental plasticity were also defined.Results.2013 was the most unfavorable year because of the bad weather conditions. That year the pea yield was only 5/1 tons per hectare. We detected a great influence of the environmental factors (38%), the genotype factors (31) and their cooperative factors (27) on the yield of pea. The main differential ability of environmental was detected in 2016 and 2016. There were average conditions in 2014. During all years of studying there was a high effect of environmental destabilization which showed the great difference between the yields of the different genotypes. The following genotypes were found: the genotypes with a high total adaptive ability – Kudesnik 2, Vesta (k-9352) Berkut (k-8856), G-344/16; stable genotypes – Krasavchik (k-9449) and Istok (k-9353); the genotypes with an environmental plasticity – Alpha (k-7071), Vesta (k-9352), Parus (k-9350), G-344/16. The varieties which were found for breeding purposes on the totality of different characteristics of adaptability, stability and environmental plasticity are Prima (o155213) of a very early ripeness group, Vesta (k-9352) – medium-early, Parus (k-9350, leafless) –medium and the G-344/16 – medium-late.

Authors: Saltanovish T. I. , Doncila A. N. 
Published: August 2020

Relevance. High temperatures are among the environmental factors that negatively affect the development of most crops including tomatoes. Thus, important condition for the realization of potential plant productivity is the heat resistance.Methods of the gamete selection in combination with classical approaches can be used to select resistant genotypes and create initial breeding material with resistance to the temperature factor. Materials and methods.The experiments were carried out with intraspecific hybrids F4 of tomato: Elvira x Milenium, Elvira x Tomis, Elvira x Prestij, Mihaela x Milenium, Mihaela x Tomis, Mihaela x Prestij, Jubiliar х Milenium, Jubiliar x Tomis, Jubiliar x Prestij, Milenium x Elvira, Milenium x Mihaela. Plants were grown in the field. Flowers were collected, anthers were separated, pollen was isolated. Pollen was heated for 2 or 4 hours at 43°C in the experimental variants. In the control, pollen was maintained at a temperature of 26°C. Then pollen was sown and germinated on a cultural medium. The viability was determined by the length of pollen tubes.Results.A different reaction of pollen grains to temperature influence was established. The main sources of variability and their contribution to the variability of the pollen and seedling traits were determined. The temperature and genotype mainly determine the variability of the gametophyte and sporophyte. More than half of the hybrids combined high indicators of resistance of both pollen and seedlings, formed a larger number of flowers and better set fruits. Thus, tomato genotypes with good indicators of heat-resistance for applying in breeding have been identified based on a complex of methods for assessing the resistance of hybrids using gametophyte and sporophyte characteristics, as well as results of genetic-statistical analysis.
