Abstract: A new environmentally plastic, highly productive winter bread wheat cultivar 'Nosivochka' has been created. The article describes morphological, agroecological, and biological characteristics of cv. 'Nosivochka'. High environmental plasticity, productivity, and grain and flour quality are highlighted. It was shown that the new cultivar had a high biotic potential in the woodlands-forest-steppe and forest-steppe ecotopes. During environmental trials (in 2001–2006, 2008–2022, in the woodlands-forest-steppe ecotope (Chernihivska Oblast) region) and in 2007–2014, in the forest-steppe ecotope (Kyivska Oblast)), the new cultivar gave a high mean yield of grain: 6.54–9.11 and 5.72–7.74 t/ha, respectively. Cv. 'Nosivochka' is highly intensive. It has improved morphological and agrobiological features, a wide norm of reaction under optimized growing conditions, and thickened straw. All these features make it fairly highly resistant to adverse abiotic and biotic factors, be able to assimilate high doses of nitrogen mineral fertilizers, and respond well to timely soil cultivation (plowing) and after-effects of organic fertilizers.

Published: December 2024

The Yuriev Plant Production Institute of NAAS breeds naked food barleys, including those with pigmented caryopses and waxy starch. The strating material was obtained from the National Center for Plant Genetic Resources of Ukraine: accessions of the varieties nudum L. and daghestanicum Vav. et Orl. with gray-green caryopses, of the variety viride Vav. et Orl. with green caryopses, of the varieties violaceum Koern. and nudidubium Koern. with purple caryopses, of the varieties nigrinudum Vav. and nudimelanocrithum Giess. et al. with black caryopses, and line SGI 7024 with blue caryopses bred at the Plant Breeding and Genetics Institute – National Center of Seed and Cultivar Investigations. The sources of changed starch composition were Canadian naked cultivars ‘CDC Alamo’ (waxy), ‘Mebere’ (waxy), and ‘CDC Hilose’ (high amylose). It was found that the contents of phenolic compounds and anthocyanins depended on genotype and growing conditions, and these characteristics were consistently high in line ‘Violet 18-1207’ and cvs. ‘CDC Alamo’ and ‘CDC Hilose’. In our valuable line ‘Violet 18-1207’ (UA 0805977) of the variety nudidubium, not only caryopses are purple, but also all other parts of the plant are bright purple in the “earing-filling” phase. After ripening, the plant turns gray-lilac. The content of anthocyanins in grain is 0.260 relative units D530/g; the content of phenols is also high (1.04 mg/g of gallic

acid equivalent). Analysis of hybrid populations showed that, as a rule, a dark color was inherited by F1 and some accessions stably transmitted their caryopsis color over generations when participating in crossing as both the female and male forms. In F2 populations, segregation occurred by caryopsis color; the inheritance of caryopsis color in barley can be explained by interactions of non-allelic genes mainly via complementarity. In some populations, traits that were not intrinsic to parents and valuable for enriching starting materials for breeding were detected.

Published: December 2024

Plant density and fertilization regimens are considered as important elements of the sunflower hybrid cultivation technology. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of seeding rates and mineral fertilizers on biometric parameters and seed yield of new zoned sunflower hybrids in the Eastern Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. The study was conducted in an experimental field of the Yuriev Plant Production Institute of NAAS of Ukraine in 2021 and 2023. We studied two classic oil sunflower hybrids (‘Yarylo’ and ‘Khoryv’), two fertilization regimens (without fertilization (control) and N30P30K30), and four seeding rates (40,000, 50,000, 60,000, and 70,000 germinable seeds per 1 ha). The tallest plants (165.8 cm) were recorded for hyb. ‘Khoryv’ sown at a seeding rate of 70,000 seeds/ha in the control and the shortest ones – for hyb. ‘Yarylo’ (139.2 cm) sown at the seeding rate of 60,000 seeds/ha hybrid and fertilized with N30P30K30. The mean number of leaves per plant was greater in hyb. ‘Khoryv’ (31.2 leaves) than in hyb. ‘Yarylo’ (30.4). The maximum leaf area per plant and per hectare was formed by hyb. ‘Yarylo’ sown at the seeding rate of 40,000 seeds/ha and fertilized with N30P30K30P30K30 (9,425.6 cm2 and 39,500 m2, respectively). Hyb. ‘Yarylo’ yielded more seeds when sown at the seeding rates of 40,000 seeds/ha and 50,000 seeds/ha, especially after N30P30K30 fertilization (2.07 t/ha and 2.02 t/ha, respectively). Hyb. ‘Khoryv’ yielded more seeds in the control when sown at the seeding rate of 70,000 seeds/ha (2.19 t/ha) and

in the N30P30K30 experiment when sown at the seeding rate of 40,000 seeds/ha (2.24 t/ha). Therefore, the sunflower plant height, number of leaves, leaf area, and seed yield depended on hybrid features, fertilization, and plant density.

Published: December 2024

Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) is mainly produced as an infallible crop in semi-arid and arid areas. Though the impact of salinity on crop production is extensively documented, very limited studies are available demonstrating the interaction between fodder quality and irradiance use efficiency in sorghum. To study such interactions, the present study aimed to evaluate the resource use efficiency in different sorghum lines for fodder evaluation under a varied salinity regime (60 to 120 mM NaCl), on the 2017-18, 2018-19 and 2019-20 kharif seasons. Sorghum grown on June 15, 2018employed higher thermal and heat units than July 2, 2019. Sorghum genotypes' differential quality and yield responses to various temperatures were due to differences in high salinity tolerance during various growth stages. The crop sown on June 15th required the most growing degree days units to reach various phenological stages and physiological maturity. SSG 59-3 maintained higher crude protein, in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD), crude protein yield, and digestible dry matter at 120 mM NaCl. SSG 593 exhibited maximum green fodder yield (GFY) and dry matter yield (DMY), while PC-5 had the minimum. SSG 59-3 genotype accumulated high radiation use efficiency (281.23 kgha-1 MJ1), heat susceptibility index (0.42%), and yield stability ratio (87.2%) in both control and stressed environments, while PC-5 showed moderate tolerance to temperature stress and thus recorded a lower heat susceptibility index. Since there is no discernible correlation between the agronomic and fodder quality factors, it is possible to breed for desired qualities using independent associations. The results showed that the SSG 59-3 genotype adopted optimum allocation of resources for biomass production, maximized yield potential, and could be utilized in breeding programs as a potential fodder crop in saline regimes.

Organic farming is an eco-friendly farming strategy involving balanced application of organic manures, biofertilizers and organic formulations to boost plant growth and yields. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of different organic sources of nutrients, alone or in combination, on the growth and yield attributes of the strawberry cultivar Flavia. The study comprised ten treatments and laid in a randomized block design (RBD). The results indicated that, compared with the control treatment (T10), all the treatments (T1 to T9) enhanced the growth and yield. The combination comprising 60% RDN – 30% through vermicompost (90 g/m2) + 30% through neem cake (45 g/m2) and biochar (800 g/m2) + Panchgavya + Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhiza (VAM), each @ 50 mL/plant (T9), resulted in a significant increase in vegetative growth and yield attributes. The vegetative parameters included highest plant height (6.7 and 13.33 cm), plant spread in East-West direction (EW ) (15.87 and 24.63 cm), plant spread in North-South (NS) (14.00 and 25.59 cm), number of trifoliate leaves (5.97 and 17.40) at 45 and 90 days after planting (DAP), respectively and stem girth (3.41 cm). Similarly, this treatment combination also contributed to the maximum chlorophyll index (57.90 SPAD), leaf area (48.76 cm2), along with highest number of fruits per plant (28.14), average berry weight (16.53 g), yield per plant (447.88 g) and yield efficiency (0.47 kg/cm2), compared to the other treatment combinations and the control. These results offer practical guidance for sustainable strawberry cultivation and lay the groundwork for future research on organic nutrient management in various crops.

Published: December 2024

Antimicrobial resistance is one of the top 10 global threats to public health. Natural products can be effectively used to prevent antimicrobial resistance. Spices are highly used food commodities. Their essential oils (EOs) possess excellent antimicrobial potential. Therefore, the present study aimed to extract oil from three commonly used spices and assess their antimicrobial activity.The EOs were extracted from cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum J. Persel), cumin (Cuminum cyminum L.) and trigonella (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) and were characterized by GC-MS. Antimicrobial activities were screened against two Gram +ve bacterial strains: Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC No. 737), Bacillus subtilis (MTCC No. 441); two Gram-ve bacterial strains, Escherichia coli (MTCC No. 443), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MTCC No. 1688); and two fungal strains: Aspergillus oryzae(NCIM1008) and Fusarium oxysporum (MDU-4) via disc diffusion and broth dilution assays.The highest yield of EOs was obtained with trigonella (4.35 %), followed by cinnamon (2.75%) and cumin (1.53%). GC-MS analysis confirmed the presence of various phytocompounds in different EOs. Antimicrobial results showed that cinnamon EO was the most active with the maximum zone of inhibition of 15.3±0.08 mm, 11.3±0.25 mm, and 13.1±0.14 mm against E. coli, P. aeruginosa, and F. oxysporum, respectively. Cumin EOhas also shown promising antimicrobial activity with a zone of inhibition of 13.0±0.09 mm, 10.2±0.20 mm, and 11.4±0.08 mm against E. coli, P. aeruginosa, and F. oxysporum. E. coli and F. oxysporum were the most sensitive microbial strains.Cinnamon EO exhibited the highest antimicrobial activity and, therefore, can be used as a natural antimicrobial herb after clinical trials.

The Ramganga River flows from north to south and drains the northeastern (Lesser Himalaya) of the Himalaya. It transects with numerous active faults, thrusts, and litho-tectonic units before the confluence with the Saryu River at Rameshwar.The present study aimed to determine the virtue of geomorphic indices in appraising the status of neotectonic activity in the Ramganga River Valley, Eastern Kumaun, Himalaya. The watersheds and drainage network were extracted using the Advanced Space-borne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) DEM at 50000 and 100 Pixels threshold, derived18 sub-watersheds and detailed drainage network. Further, this study deciphered the relative neo-tectonic activity of the Ramganga river using the Index of Relative Active Tectonics (IRAT) based on various geomorphic indices Bifurcation Ratio (Br), channel sinuosity (Cs), Asymmetry Factor (Af), Hypsometric Integral (HI), Basin Elongation Ratio (Re), Drainage Density (Dd), Drainage Texture (Dt), and Stream Length Gradient (SL). These indices were classified into high, moderate and low to provide a rank to sub-basin for deriving the IRAT. The northeastern bank of Ramganga River shows high neo-tectonic activity, viz., stream length gradient (500- 1688), channel sinuosity (1.41- 1.48), and valley floor width to height ratio (0.11- 0.34) than southwestern parts.

Published: December 2024

Diabetes adversely affects male reproduction and closely associated with male infertility. The present study designed to assess the synergistic effects of Camel milk and Hibiscus rosa sinensis on the reproduction of type II diabetic Wistar rats over one month. Rats were divided into seven groups: control (Group I) and diabetic control (Group II). Group III received 125 mg/kg/day H. rosa sinensis, whereas Group IV received 50 ml/rat/day Camel milk. Groups V–VII were treated synergistically with varying H. rosa sinensis and Camel milk dosages. Group II showed persistent hyperglycemic state, gradually decreasing in treatment groups (III-IV) and synergistic groups (V-VII). The pancreas of Group II rats was damaged, including acinar cell necrosis and vacuolation. These damages were significantly improved in treatment groups (III-IV) and synergistic groups (V-VII). Group II male rats exhibited significant damage to their seminiferous tubules, including a decrease in diameter, and loss of spermatozoa. Seminiferous tubule structures were significantly improved in treatment groups III & IV. The 1st synergistic group (V) demonstrated greater recovery of altered seminiferous tubule structures than the 2nd and 3rd synergistic groups (VI and VII). Sperm analysis revealed that Group II animals had significantly reduced sperm count, motility, and viability, whereas treatment groups III-IV had better sperm characteristics. The synergistic group (V) had a greater sperm count, motility, and viability than synergistic groups (VI and VII). The present study showed synergistic benefits of H. rosa sinensis and Camel milk in treating and reproducing type II diabetic rats at very low doses.

Published: December 2024

Proteus mirabilis has become a prevalent opportunistic pathogenic agent in clinical infections globally. The objective of this study was to analyze and discover some of genes responsible for antibiotic resistance in clinical isolates of P. mirabilis that exhibit resistance to multiple drugs, including IntI1, IntI2 and to assess the relationship in the phylogenetic tree among these genes in Iraq, comparing to world-wide strains in National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI ). A total of 250 samples from different sources were isolated in some Diyala province hospitals from August 2023 to January 2024 to be identified for the presence of P. mirabilis by biochemical and genetics test. The study demonstrated that 75 isolates were P. mirabilis 35 isolates (46.7%) from urine, (10.7%) from wounds, (13.3%) from burns and diabetic foot and 12 isolates (16%) from vaginal swabs and tested against 15 antibiotics for susceptibility. The prevalence of multi drug- resistance ( MDR) in this study was high (97%) while only 2 isolates was tended to be extensively drug -resistance (XDR) (3%) no pan-drug –resistance(PDR) was detected. From 12 isolates of p.mirabilis 9 Intl1 and 6 Intl2 genes were detectable. homology between the sequenced sample of P. mirabilis reference target sequences. These genes were sequenced and phylogenetic relationships among these genes and global genes were documented in NCBI. The study suggests that some Iraqi isolates contain genetic variation compared to global strains and demonstrated the utility of IntI1, IntI2 sequencing in investigating the genetic diversity of P. mirabilis strains and offering insights into the evolutionary history of these crucial bacterial pathogens.

ФОНОВІ АНТРОПОГЕННІ ЛАНДШАФТИ ГЕОЕКОТОНУ ПЕРЕДГІР’Я КРИМСЬКИХ ГІР
Authors: Ситник Олексій Іванович 
Published: December 2024

Передгір’я Кримських гір розглянуто як своєрідний ландшафтний екотон, якому ландшафтознавці приділяють мало уваги. Ландшафтний екотон передгір’я Кримських гір представлений передгірним лісостепом, що охоплює зовнішні і внутрішні куестові пасма. Тут різноманіття ландшафтної структури та відповідність лісостеповому висотному поясу Кримських гір ускладнюють чіткий поділ екотону на три складових: дві – пристепову і пригірську зовнішні та центральну – контактну. Детальніші дослідження ландшафтного екотону передгір’я Кримських гір у майбутньому дадуть можливість це зробити. Активне, особливо упродовж двох минулих століть, господарське освоєння передгірного ладшафтного екотону призвело до формування фонових сільськогосподарських польових, садово-плантаційних та лучно-пасовищних фонових антропогенних ландшафтів у межах передгір’я Кримських гір.
