NEW MEDIUM-RIPENING WATERMELON VARIETY YUBILYAR FOR PRODUCERS IN THE SOUTH OF RUSSIA
DescriptionAt present, the demand of producers and the market determine the model of future varieties. Task for breeders is to develop varieties having a set of economic and biological traits fitting into the model templates. The developed varieties and hybrids should ensure for climatic conditions of the Krasnodar region consistently high yields, better product quality and maximum efficiency of crop industry. As a result of breeding work there was developed a watermelon variety called Yubilyar, belonging to medium-ripening group, having high figures of economically valuable traits. The variety has resistance to unfavorable factors of growing conditions and stable yields. It is suitable for cultivation in rainfed areas and practically does not require protective measures against major diseases prevalent in the southern regions. Fruits are large, of wide elliptical shape, with bright crispy red flesh and a thin crust. Determined by stable fruiting under different weather conditions, friendly yield return, commercial fruits – up to 92%. Potential yield – up to 25 t/ha. Good stored for 40-50 days, suitable for transportation on a long distance. Passed preliminary tests on the fields in the Krasnodar, Rostov regions and the Republic of North Ossetia. According to results of evaluation from producers the variety meets requirements of the market and has a commercial appeal

NEW α-GLUCOSIDASE INHIBITOR PRODUCER AND ITS CHARACTERISTICS
DescriptionThe data of the morphological, cultural, physiological and biochemical characterization of α-glucosidase inhibitor producer, isolated from soil sample by selective methodic is presented in this work. It is shown that on the set of listed attributes the culture can be referred to Kitasatoa genus. The 9th edition of “Key to the bacteria,” Bergey, Kitasatoa genus moved to a group of “Streptomyces and related genera” and transformed into the Streptomyces genus. In this case, strain 839 was named Streptomyces species, it was given the number 1328-D

A NEW METHOD OF THE RAGWEED INHIBITION (AMBROSIA ARTEMI-SIIFOLIA L.) OF SOUTH RUSSIA
DescriptionAdventive weeds control using classical approach of biological protection against adventive species is not always satisfactory. A new method of the ragweed inhibition is developed that is based on shifting of the natural phenological stage of the phytophage growth. It makes possible to produce a large group of ragweed noctuidae under laboratory conditions on an artificial nutrient medium and to inundate weed infested areas with them by the time of the invader emergence

Description
Green building, forestry, agriculture of the Rostov region is in desperate need of resistant and long-lived samples of deciduous trees of the first grade. The main object of the search of promising forms of deciduous trees were artificial plantations of Quercus robur in the Botanical Garden of SFU. The research identified several of samples of Quercus robur, which are of economic interest. Based on ecological and biological properties and economic qualities, the most promising on was a sample of Quercus robur var. tardiflora, planted in 1888. This sample is less receptive to pests and diseases. It also has a high winter hardiness and drought resistance and significantly superior to similar samples of Quercus robur along longevity and has a high decorative effect. Dedicated sample of Quercus robur var. tardiflora, and his generation from seed is very different from other samples of the population by time of phenological phases. The all main henological phases of this sample occured later by on 10-15 days. The sample belongs to the group of plants of late phenological dates start and end of the growing season. The phenology of dedicated samples contributes to their high steadiness into regional climate. It propagates by sowing freshly harvested seeds. Phenological features of the selected sample might be inherited in the seminal generations

NEW ADVENTIVE WEED PLANT AMMANNIA COCCINEA Rottb. IN THE RICE FIELDS OF THE KRASNODAR REGION
DescriptionRice fields all over the world are one of the places of invasion of adventive weed species. They can reduce the yield of the rice crop by 20-30%. The phytomonitoring studies in the rice systems of the Krasnodar region in 2017 have discovered a new species of Ammannia coccinea Rottb. (Lythraceae) among the weed vegetation of the grain crops. The article gives a botanical description of the species; its biological and ecological features and ways of its distribution are discussed. Ammannia coccinea is an annual plant, light-loving and hygrophilous. The country of origin is North America. This is one of the most malicious weeds in California and the United States in general. In Asian and European countries, the plant is brought with rice seeds. Currently, in many rice-growing regions of the world, the species A. coccinea tends to spread and increase the severity of infestation. The species was registered in the Krasnodar region in the rice fields of the Abinskiy, Kalininskiy, Krasnoarmeiskiy and Slavyanskiy regions. The number of plants of A. coccinea does not exceed one plant per 10 m2, with the exception of three locations of invasion, where the density is up to 5-7 pcs/m2 and the plants occupy an area about 0.5 hectares. Considering the fact that in rich soils the height of the plant reaches 1 m, with the ramification of the stem, the plants go to the first tier. They successfully compete with rice plants, suppressing their growth and development. This can adversely affect crop yield. The article discusses the reasons for the appearance of A. coccinea in the rice fields of the Krasnodar region

MORPHOMETRY OF LEAVES OF THE KUBAN WILD-GROWING LIANAS OF GRAPE
DescriptionThe morphometry of leaves of the Kuban wild-growing lianas of grape, as we know, is not learnt till now and availability of quoters of pure subspecies of Vitis vinifera silvestris Gmel is not demonstrated., though suppositions about this information soared in the scientific environment as old as Adam [5]. With the advent of a direction of morphometry taxonomy there was a necessity of accurate bracing of a current state of a genotypical diversity of lianas and biological polymorphism of leaves for link establishment silvestris - silvesatis - sativa
