Розглянуто модифікований спосіб зберігання ма-точних коренеплодів селекційних форм моркви посів-ної, в основі якого – скорочення втрат коренеплодів під час зимового зберігання та отримання чисто-сортного насіння заданих комбінацій у процесі селек-ційної роботи. Розглянутий модифікований спосіб зберігання маточних коренеплодів моркви посівної безпосередньо у полі перспективний для освоєння в науково-дослідних установах та насінницьких госпо-дарствах у зонах Північного Лісостепу та Полісся України. The modified method of storage of uterine root crops of plant-breeding forms of sowing carrot was considered; in its basis is reduction of root crops’ losses during winter storage and receipting of high-quality stock seed from the set combinations in the process of plant-breeding work. The considered modified method of storage of uterine carrot seed directly in the field is perspective for development in research institutions and seed farms in areas of the Northern Forest and Woodlands of Ukraine.

The existence in Mexico of blight-resistant species of potato has been known for many years, but they occur in the wild and are quite unsuitable for agricultural purposes. In order to utilise their resistance to disease it is necessary to combine disease resistance with the cropping qualities of cultivated forms while eliminating the undesirable characters which are prominent in the wild forms. Breeding work with this object in view has been in progress at the Scottish Plant Breeding Station for several years, and results obtained in the course of testing progenies for reaction to blight infection are discussed in the following pages.

<p>Plant breeding, as an applied of plant genetics, is based and is supported by various subdisciplines of genetic sciences, includeing plant germplasm, classical genetics, molecular genetics, cytogenetics, gene-transformation techniques, etc. Linkage and team work system between plant germplasm management and plant breeding program is most required, since the success of plant breeding maybe obtained from the contribution of gene donor parents, derived from the germplasm management. Without the flow of genes from the germplasm collection, varieties produced by the plant breeder would suffer a narrow genetical based or a bottle-necking genetic based. Plant germplasm research is an integral part of the germplasm management, aimed to (1) evaluate the genetic variation of the germplasm collection, to be readily available for the breeding program and to be used for scientific publications, (2) tracing the origin of plant species, and (3) officially release a selected germplasm, containing new economic gene (s). The linkage between germplasm management and plant breeding research program could be facilitated through the following activities (1) identifying an elit germplasm for varietal release, (2) selection and stabilization of a promising germplasm accession for possible varietal releases, (3) use of germplasm accession as a gene donor parent to incorporate adaptive genes into improved variety, (4) use of germplasm accession for a specific donor gene, (5) use of germplasm to broaden the genetical base of varieties through an introgression and nobilization, (6) use of germplasm to improve the genetic value of the breeding population, and (7) to develop multiple crossess involving many parents to broaden the genetical base of the breeding population. Another important function of the germplasm management is to conserve accessions carrying genes which may be useful in the future, to anticipate the dynamic changing of biological and environmental stresses on crop. Germplasm management is considered successfully conducted when it is continously supplying donor gene parents to breeders for parental crosses on their breeding program, conversely, breeding program in considered successfully managed, when it uses the rich genetic variability available on the germplasm collection. Separating the organizational units among the breeding program, germplasm management and molecular genetic research, is only for enhancing the intensity of the research, but should not separate the linkage program of the research.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Abstrak</strong></p><p>Pemuliaan tanaman merupakan ilmu genetika terapan yang didukung oleh berbagai cabang ilmu kegenetikaan, termasuk plasma nutfah, genetika klasik, genetika molekuler, sitogenetika, dan genetika transformasi. Keterpaduan antara pengelolaan plasma nutfah dengan pemuliaan tanaman tidak dapat ditawar, karena keberhasilan pemuliaan sangat tergantung dari ketersediaan sumber gen yang disediakan oleh pengelola plasma nutfah. Tanpa kontribusi sumber gen dari pengelola plasma nutfah, hasil pemuliaan tanaman mengalami penyempitan kandungan genetik, atau terjadi gejala leher botol genetik. Penelitian plasma nutfah merupakan bagian integral dari pengelolaan materi plasma nutfah, bertujuan untuk (1) menggali kekayaan sifat genetik plasma nutfah guna penyediaan tetua persilangan dan bahan publikasi ilmiah, (2) menelusuri asal-usul spesies tanaman, (3) melepas secara resmi plasma nutfah sebagai sumber gen yang diakui kepemilikannya. Keterkaitan pengelolaan plasma nutfah dengan program pemuliaan dapat dilaksanakan melalui (1) pemanfaatan langsung aksesi plasma nutfah elit untuk dilepas sebagai varietas unggul, (2) pemurnian dan pemantapan populasi aksesi plasma nutfah sebagai calon varietas, (3) pemanfaatan aksesi plasma nutfah sebagai donor gen untuk rekombinasi gen-gen unggul adaptif, (4) plasma nutfah sebagai donor gen spesifik, (5) plasma nutfah sebagai bahan perluasan latar belakang genetik varietas melalui proses introgresi dan nobilisasi, (6) pemanfaatan plasma nutfah untuk perbaikan genetik populasi seleksi, dan (7) pembentukan populasi dasar yang mengandung keragaman genetik luas melalui persilangan banyak tetua. Fungsi pengelolaan plasma nutfah lainnya adalah melestarikan sumber daya genetik untuk kebutuhan gen di masa depan, agar dapat menyediakan gen-gen untuk mengantisipasi perubahan ras patogen dan tipe baru serangga hama yang bersifat dinamis, serta penyediaan gen guna mengatasi cekaman abiotik alamiah. Pengelolaan plasma nutfah dinilai berhasil apabila telah mampu menyediakan aksesi plasma nutfah sebagai sumber gen donor dalam program pemuliaan. Pemuliaan tanaman berhasil secara optimal apabila telah memanfaatkan keragaman genetik sifat yang diinginkan, yang tersedia dalam koleksi plasma nutfah. Keterpisahan kelembagaan antara unit kerja pengelolaan plasma nutfah dengan program pemuliaan tidak boleh membatasi keterpaduan program penelitian antara kedua cabang disiplin keilmuan tersebut.</p>

Aim. The detailed research of plant-breeding value of the synthesized multiflorous forms with long inflorescence. Methods. The field and laboratory experiments for study of quantitative signs of varieties and hybrids with the statistical processing of data. Results. Synthesized multiflorous forms of soybean were characterized by greater duration of period of vegetation (135–150 days) and high of plants (100–160 cm). On the signs of inflorescence multiflorous forms were distinguished from existent varieties by the amount of flowers in inflorescence – from 9.2 to 32.8 (at plant-breeding varieties – 2.6–5.0), long inflorescence – to 18.6 and more cm (at plant-breeding varieties are 0.3 cm to 1.8 cm). These forms were characterized by the greater amount of pods and seed from a plant, by mass of seed from a plant, and also by the greater amount of knots, amount of branches of first-order than plant-breeding varieties and numbers. The hybrids of first generation by the productivity considerably exceeded both paternal forms. Mass of seed from a plant changed from a 32.00 g to 60.61 g. On duration of period of vegetation the hybrids of first generation were inter-mediate between paternal forms. Conclusions. Multiflorous forms of soybean with long inflorescens are important source of breeding work on increase of seed productivity. Keywords: soybean, multiflorous inflorescence, long inflorescence, varieties, hybrids.

In 1947, while a caragana breeding improvement program was being carried out on the Forest Nursery Station, Indian Head, Saskatchewan, it was discovered that a large percentage of seed was being destroyed by an insect. This insect, the caragana seed chalcid, which interfered seriously with the plant breeding work, is apparently identical with the Russian Bruchophagus caraganae (Nik.) (Nikol'skaya, 1952).

Генетичні дослідження дозволили встановитиступінь спадковості господарсько корисних ознак,а також їх взаємозв'язок за певних умов годівлі йутримання свиней. Знання цих показників і викори-стання їх у селекційно-племінній роботі дає змогуудосконалювати породи в бажаному напрямі про-дуктивності. Розділити ознаки, залежні лише відвнутрішніх чинників або тільки від зовнішніх умов,практично неможливо. Проте можна визначитиступінь впливу тих й інших на формування кон-кретних властивостей тварин у процесі їх розви-тку. Це особливо важливо по відношенню до ознак,що обумовлюють продуктивні якості тварин. Даніпроведених досліджень підтверджують, що воднакових умовах годівлі й утримання полтавськім'ясні, великі білі та миргородські свині при одна-ковій живій масі мали різні забійні і м'ясні якості. Genetic research made it possible to detect the degree ofheritability of economic characters as well as theircorrelation under certain conditions of swine feeding andmaintenance. Knowing and using these characters inselection and breeding work allows us to improve breedsin the desirable direction of productivity.It is practicallyimpossible to divide the characters into those whichdepend on inner factors or on environmental conditionsonly. But the degree of effect produced by all of them onformation of certain animal qualities in the process of development can be detected. That is particularlyimportant as far as the characters conditioning productivequalities of animals are concerned.The data of theresearch conducted confirm that when with the same liveweight, Poltava meaty pigs, Large White and Mirgorodpigs had different slaughter and meaty qualities under thesame feeding and maintenance conditions.

In the present study four hybrids between winter and summer turnip rape are compared with each other and with their parents. In all crosses the father was the same summer turnip rape, namely Mette. F1 and F2 of the hybrids were intermediate as regards their development in comparison with the parents. About three-fourths of the F1 plants of the cross Rapido X Mette, one half of F1 of the crosses Gruber X Mette and Sprengel X Mette, and only a small part of the crosses Storrybs X Mette gave seed yields. The seed yield per plant of the F1-hybrids was larger than that of the summer turnip rape Mette. The seed weight per silique and the mean seed weight were considerably higher in F2 of all the hybrids than in the summer turnip rape Mette. The green fodder production of the hybrids can be expected to be large. The hybrids seem to be usable in plant breeding work.

Soybean is a major protein and oilseed crop for food and livestock feed production, which is increasingly utilized in the food industry due to its favorable protein content and a superior overall seed composition with a high nutritional value. However, some of the soybean seed components have the potential to reduce the value of soy-food products as they are posing different food safety risks. Therefore, the objective of the present review was to evaluate options of soybean genetic improvement for the development of food-grade soybeans with a focus on food safety traits. To date, useful genetic variation in soybean germplasm collections and breeding materials has been described for protein components such as allergens or anti-nutritional factors, for fatty acid composition relevant to food safety, and for toxic heavy metal accumulation. Due to the progress in genomic research, genetic markers are available for assisting the introgression of major food safety traits into breeding populations, and the genetic mechanisms behind particular food safety traits have been clarified. Moreover, analytical methods from the fields of proteomics or ionomics are helpful for validating selection response and for monitoring quality features across genotypes. As consumer demand for food safety is steadily increasing, plant breeding approaches are gaining in importance as they can provide high-quality soybean raw materials to the food industry. For implementing better food safety on the consumer level, however, it appears that coordinated action between plant breeding and genetic research, food processing and marketing of products needs to be developed.
