During 1978—1981 a total of nearly 200 raspberry cane samples were investigated originating mainly from southern and eastern Finland. The samples consisted of young and already fruited canes injuried to different degrees. Phoma sp., the conidial stage of Didymella applanata (Niessl) Sacc., causer of raspberry spur blight, was most common of the isolated fungi; the perfect stage did not develope until afer preservation in cold. The peak of pycnospore release on raspberry canes was in July 1981. Other weak wound pathogens were isolated: Fusarium avenaceum (Cda. ex Fr.) Sacc., which occurred in 22 % of the transfers, F. culmorum (W. G. Sm.) Sacc., Botrytis cinerea Pers. ex Fr. and the secondly most common Phoma species, P. exigua Desm. v. exigua Maas. The fungi mentioned above were mainly obtained from different depths of the raspberry stem tissues, the least on an average from the pith. Alternaria alternate (Fr.) Keissl. was the most common ’surface fungus’, Phialophora spp., wood rotting saprophytes, common also in the pith. Leptosphaeria coniothyrium (Fckl.) Sacc., the most strong of the pathogens, was rare in the samples. The occurrence of Cylindrocarpon destructans (Zinssm.) Scholten in root samples changed 8-70 %. The cv. Muskoka is more susceptible to spur blight than cv. Ottawa. On the other hand, the larvae of raspberry cane midge (Resseliella theobaldi (Barnes)) produced plenty of injuries in Ottawa-samples originating from Mikkeli in 1980 and thus increased also the fungal damage.

The experiments were carried out in the years 2002 and 2003 on parsley seeds of 6 cultivars: Alba, Berlińska, Cukrowa, Kinga, Lenka, and Vistula. Mycological analysis of parsley seeds showed that the most common inhabitans were fungi from genus <i>Alternaria</i> (mainly <i>A. alternata</i> and <i>A. radicina</i>) and <i>Fusarium</i>, especially <i>F. avenaceum</i> and <i>F. oxysporum</i>. During the glasshouse investigations fungi <i>Alternaria radicina</i>, <i>A. alternata</i> and <i>Fusarium avenaceum</i> were the main reason for parsley damping-off. The highest number of infected seedlings was observed for Berlińska and Kinga, because in both years of experiments these cultivars had the lowest number of healthy seedlings. The highest number of healthy seedlings had cultivars Alba and Lenka, especially in the second year of experiments. In the field experiments not only fungi from genus <i>Alternaria</i> and <i>Fusarium</i> were the most often isolated from diseased parsley seedlings. <i>Fusarium oxysporum</i> was more often isolated from diseased field seedlings than from glasshouse parsley seedlings. Other fungies isolated often from parsley seedlings cultivated in the field were: <i>Pythium</i> spp., <i>Rhizoctonia solani</i>, <i>Cylindrocarpon destructans</i> and <i>Stemphylium botryosum</i>.

During 1975 and 1977—1979 studies were carried out on the fungus diseases of experimentally cultivated arctic bramble (Rubus arcticus L.). The most common pathogenic or weakly pathogenic fungi isolated from the diseased clones were Cylindrocarpon destructans (Zins.) Scholten and Fusarium avenaceum (Cda ex Fr.) Sacc. Some other Fusarium species and Botrytis cinerea Pers. ex Fr. were rather uncommon. Didymella applanata (Niessl) Sacc. and plenty of pycnidia of Phoma spp. were established on nearly withered clones; among the isolates were P. exigua Desm. var. exigua Maas, Phoma spp. and Coniotbyrium fuckelii Sacc. (con. st. of Leptosphaeria coniotbyrium (Fuck.) Sacc.). Isolates of little significance were identified in the whole from 26 fungal genera.

The aim of the study was to determine the fungi causing dying out of one-yearold heather seedlings. Observations were carried out on: 'Amethyst', 'Annemarie', 'Colette', 'Perestroika' and 'Reini'. The shoots revealing necrotic symptoms were plated on PDA medium. 25 species of fungi were isolated. Among them <i>Pestalotia sydowiana</i>, <i>Alternaria alternata</i>, <i>Cylindrocarpon destructans</i>, <i>Leptosphaeria coniothyrium</i> and <i>Epicoccum purpurascens</i> were dominant, while <i>Mammaria echinobotryoides</i>, <i>Phoma leveillei</i>, <i>Kaissleriella subalpina</i>, <i>Botrytis cinerea</i> and <i>Phytophthora cinnamomi</i> occurred less frequently.

The versatility of Low Temperature Field Emission SEM (LTFESEM) for viewing frozen-hydrated biological specimens, and the high resolutions that can be obtained with such instruments have been well documented. Studies done with LTFESEM have been usually limited to the viewing of small organisms, organs, cells, and organelles, or viewing such specimens after fracturing them.We use a Hitachi 4500 FESEM equipped with a recently developed BAL-TEC SCE 020 cryopreparation/transfer device for our LTFESEM studies. The SCE 020 is similar in design to the older SCU 020 except that instead of having a dedicated stage, the SCE 020 has a detachable cold stage that mounts on to the FESEM stage when needed. Since the SCE 020 has a precisely controlled lock manipulator for transferring the specimen table from the cryopreparation chamber to the cold stage in the FESEM, and also has a motor driven microtome for precise control of specimen fracture, we have explored the feasibility of using the LTFESEM for multiple-fracture studies of the same sample.

Underground spaces in town centres present a big attraction for investors. However, they put special requirements to the internal environment. Those requirements can be fulfilled by means of daylighting. Examples of lighting of underground spaces are discussed. It is shown that the common systems of natural lighting are not always possible to use and cause big heat losses. Hollow light guide pipes allow avoid the shortcomings of common daylight systems. Method of calculation of daylight factors from hollow light guide pipes is shown. The results of calculation of daylight factors under the light guide pipes of different diameters in the different depths are presented.

Monitoring of sea water condition is one of major requirements for carrying out the reliable ecological control of water environment. Monitoring networks contain such elements as sea buoys, beacons, etc. and are designated for measuringvarious hydrophysical parameters, including salinity of sea water. Development of specialized network and a separate buoy system for measuring thesea water salinity at different depths makes it possible to determine major regularities of processes of pollution and self-recovery of the sea waters. The article describes the scientific and methodological basics for development of this specialized network and questions of its optimal construction. It is well-known that at a depth of 30-45 m of the Caspian Sea salinity decreases and then at a depth of 45-60 m salinity is fully recovered. The mentioned changes of salinity at the relatively upper layer of sea waters is of special interest for studying the effect of ocean-going processes on the climate forming in the Caspian area. In terms of informativeness of measurements of surface waters salinity, the most informative is a layer ata 30-60 m depth, where inversion and recovery of salinity take place. It is shown that in most informative subrange of measurements, i. e. at a depth of 30-60 m optimization of regime of measurements complex should be carried out in order to increase the effectiveness of held researches. It is shown that at a depth of 35-50 m choice of the optimum regime of measurements makes it possible to obtain the maximum amount of information.
