Under conditions of the Central Chernozem Region in the period from 1990 till 2012 long-term and short-term experiments were carried out in order to study the effect of different systems and methods of main soil treatment on weed infestation of plantings and yield of field crops. Soil and plant samples analyses were performed by customary methods. It has been defined that improved fall-ploughing and supplementary fall-ploughing at a depth of 6-8 cm allow reducing the quantity of weed vegetation in sugar beet plantings by 22 % and 33.3 % respectively compared to conventional (two-phase) fall-ploughing.

The aim of the study is to find out the feasibility of including green manured fallow in specialized sugar beet crop rotations by comparing necessary assessment indicators with their values in a traditional crop rotation with black fallow against the background of unequal fertilization levels. The study was based on the analysis of experimental data from a long-term stationary experiment, laid out simultaneously in all fields and variants on typical chernozem in triplicate. The results are as follows: within the same fertilization levels, no significant differences in the yield of winter wheat (sugar beet precursor) were revealed, and the yield of sugar beet in a crop rotation with green manured fallow was stably higher (no more than 5 to 7%), an increase in yield relative to the control fertilizer variant (6 tons of manure per hectare per year) against the background of a double rate of manure in combination with mineral fertilizers amounted to 21.7 to 23.4% for wheat and 14.3 to 15.6% for beets with an increase in the productivity of crop rotations (in natural and value terms) by 1.2 times, but an increase in costs by 1.3 times caused an absolute decrease in the level of profitability by 23 to 25%. Differences in the assessment indicators for specific fertilization variants increased over time due to an unequal degree of soil fertility reproduction, and therefore in the fifth cycle of the crop rotation with black fallow turned out to be 1.1 to 1.3 times greater than in the green manured rotation.

57 Background: Our understanding of immunotherapies for prostate cancer (PSA-TRICOM, sipuleucel-T, ipilimumab) is incomplete in that such therapies have improved overall survival (OS) without changes in time to progression (TTP) in randomized trials. In an effort to better understand this discrepancy, we evaluated data from studies of PSA-TRICOM. A pox viral vaccine expressing PSA and 3 T-cell co-stimulatory molecules, PSA-TRICOM has demonstrated PSA-specific immune responses and evidence of clinical activity that supported initiation of a currently accruing Phase III trial. An analysis of NCI PCa trials (including a PSA-TRICOM trial) suggests that immune therapies may eventually slow the growth rate (GR) of tumors, leading to unaltered short term TTP, yet improved OS (Stein et al. Clin Can Res. 2011). Methods: PSA-TRICOM was administered to 50 hormone-naïve patients (pts.) with non-metastatic, castration naive PCa in a multi-center trial (ECOG 9802). Pts were treated every 4 weeks for 3 months, then every 12 weeks (preliminary data previously reported, DiPaola, RS et al. ASCO GU 2009). PSA values were used to calculate tumor GR within the first 100 days of treatment. (Pts were given no additional therapies during this time.) As previously described, a two-phase mathematical equation yielded concomitant PSA GR and regression rate constants.(Stein et. al., 2011) Results: See Table. Conclusions: These data suggest that PSA-TRICOM can alter GR significantly within 3 months. If confirmed in future trials, it could explain why vaccines have demonstrated improved OS without improved TTP. A slowing of the GR may not lead to substantial differences in short term TTP, but may enhance OS in the long term. This concept will be evaluated in an international Phase III trial of PSA-TRICOM in minimally symptomatic, metastatic castration-resistant PCa that is currently recruiting pts. Clinical trial information: NCT00108732. [Table: see text]

Rhizomania is one of the most devastating diseases of sugar beet worldwide. The disease poses a serious threat to Moroccan production and it is capable of significantly decreasing quality and yield of sugar beet plantations. The long-term survival of its fungal vector (Polymyxa betae) in soil makes it a very difficult disease to manage. Therefore, this study investigated the potential of a non-pathogenic fungal Fusarium oxysporum strain Fo47 to control Polymyxa betae. This biocontrol agent was applied as soil treatment, seed treatment, or a combination of the both treatments. A bio-test was performed on treated soil. After four weeks of culture, the roots of sugar beet seedlings were retrieved and analyzed by the DAS-ELISA test. Results indicated that F. oxysporium Fo47 reduced the activity and survival of P. betae when compared to a reference biocontrol agent Trichoderma harzianum, which only revealed significant in reducing the viral load of Beet Necrotic Yellow Vein Virus (BNYVV) as seed treatment. The non-pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum Fo47 was more effective as soil treatment and allowed almost the same reduction of BNYVV virus concentration as T. harzianum 908. Therefore, our findings emphasizes that the performance of the biocontrol agent depends on the method of application.

AbstractSalt tolerance is largely dependent on a plant’s ability to maintain optimal water status in leaves. The adjustment of water relations under salinity involves changes in the transcriptional activity of genes encoding plasma membrane aquaporins (PIPs). Here, we report the effects of long-term or short-term treatments with moderate or strong salt stress on the expression of BvPIP1;1, BvPIP2;1 and BvPIP2;2 in the leaves of sugar beet, Beta vulgaris cv. Huzar, and its halophyte relative, Beta vulgaris ssp. maritima. Plants subjected to long-term treatment were watered with salt-supplemented media during a 32 day long culture period. Short-term salt treatments were executed either by immersing the petioles of excised leaves into salt solutions for 48h, or incubating excised leaf blades in salt-supplemented media for 20h. B. vulgaris ssp. maritima reacted to long-term salt treatment with a decrease in BvPIP1;1, BvPIP2;1 and BvPIP2;2 expression. Contrastingly, only BvPIP2;2 transcript was down-regulated by salinity in leaves of B. vulgaris cv. Huzar, whereas BvPIP1;1 and BvPIP2;1 did not vary in response to salt-treatments. On the other hand, the expression of BvPIP1;1, BvPIP2;1 and BvPIP2;2 was enhanced by salinity if salt solutions was supplied through leaf petioles, irrespective of genotype. PIP expression in excised leaf blades revealed a complex pattern of changes. BvPIP1;1 and BvPIP2;1 expression underwent a period of transient increase in both the control and salt-treated leaves. Furthermore, BvPIP1;1 expression was enhanced by strong salinity. BvPIP2;2 expression was up-regulated by strong salinity or up- or down-regulated by moderate salinity during the treatment period.

The growth of modern systemic challenges in the context of globalization and integration processes leads to the creation of an effective regional agrarian structure, as one of the most pressing problems of scientific research in economic and social forecasting. The formation of an effective modern agrarian structure and the prospects for its long-term development will largely be determined by state policy, the institution of selective structural support for the state. The agrarian policy of the state to improve the institutional agrarian structure in the region on the basis of foreign and domestic experience should: - contribute to the growth in the number of family peasant farms in all sub-sectors of agriculture in all territories of the region; - create favorable economic conditions that stimulate the economy to create consumer (service) cooperatives of various specializations; - to economically stimulate large agro-industrial formations to interact with small forms of agribusiness. The conceptual directions and mechanisms of the long-term development of the agrarian structure in the Central Chernozem Region are defined, which include goals, stages, principles and objectives of the long-term development of the agrarian structure in the region, legal regulation, financial support, innovative development, the development of markets for agricultural products measures to implement the concept.
