Peat is a hetorogenous material containing humic substances (HS) that increase its fertilizer value, and acid functional groups that react with ammonia. However, polyvalent cations may block some ammonia-sorbing sites. Sixty-seven peat samples were collected in Quebec (i) to relate the colorimetric Kaila pyrophosphate test for extracting HS to the von Post field test and (ii) to correlate ammonia sorption capacity (ASC) to selected peat properties as follows: von Post test, Kaila pyrophosphate test, pH(H2O), pH(CaCl2), pH(KCl), exchangeable acidity as well as ash, Ca, Al and Fe contents. Exchangeable acidity was the most highly correlated with ASC (P < 0.01). Using field-moist material and a 1:4 peat:solution volumetric ratio, the most reliable criteria were pH(CaCl2) < 4.4 and pH(KCl) < 4.5. Using air-dry peat and a 3:50 peat:solution ratio, the corresponding criteria were pH(CaCl2) < 4.3 and pH(KCl) < 4.1. The pH(CaCl2) method provided the most consistent determination of peat acidity, whether taken on a volume or weight basis. A minimum pyrophosphatate test value between 0.1 and 0.2 absorbance unit is apparently required for making peat composts and peat-ammonia-mineral fertilizers enriched in soluble humic substances. The pH(CaCl2) method and the Kaila pyrophosphate test should be combined to routinely control the quality of peat materials for making peat composts and peat-ammonia-mineral fertilizers. Key words: pH, exchangeable acidity, pyrophosphate test, ammonia sorption capacity

Aim. Verification of scientific concepts regarding the spatial heterogeneity of field agrocenoses. Identification of the variability of phytometric and structural crop ndicators and determination of the degree of their influence on the yield and quality of winter wheat grain in the steppe zone of the Orenburg Urals.Material and Methods. Establishment of field experiments, related observations and counts in accordance with the methodology of state variety crops testing and B.A.Dospekhov's guidelin. Monitoring of winter wheat crops was carried by measuring the vegetation index (NDVI) with a Green Seeker Handheld Crop Sensor, Model HCS‐100 (Trimble, USA). Determination of grain quality indicators was conducted according to GOST 9353‐2016 Wheat – Technical Conditions. Microsoft Office Excel was employed for the correlation and regression analysis of experimental data. Results. Analysis of the intra‐field heterogeneity of winter wheat agrocenoses in terms of yield and grain quality was conducted. The dependences of yield and grain quality on the principal crop phytometric and structural parameters were defined and expressed in the form of regression equations.Сonclusion. The results of the studies attest to the growth of reserves of grain yield to 3.0 t/ha and grain quality to class I‐II class in zonal climatic conditions of optimization of environmental factors to the level of the best basic plots by levelling out field soil heterogeneity. This is possible by restoring the fertility of anthropogenically‐degraded soil through the introduction of landscape‐adaptive and resource saving farming systems, soil protective and soil restorative crop rotation, differentiated application of organic and mineral fertilizers and selection of the most adaptive varieties. We also advise the introduction of intelligent ‘digital technologies’ aimed at fuller implementation of the genetic potential of cultivated varieties with careful consideration of natural resources and the preservation of biological diversity.

SummaryThe plasma tissue factor (TF) concentration was correlated to factor VII concentration (FVIIag) and factor VII activity (FVIIc) in 498 healthy volunteers ranging in age from 17 to 64 years. Immunoassays using monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were developed for the determination of TF and FVIIag in plasma. The mAbs and the test systems were characterized. The mean value of the TF concentration was 172 ± 135 pg/ml. TF showed no age- and gender-related differences. For the total population, FVIIc, determined by a clotting test, was 110 ± 15% and the factor VIlag was 0.77 ± 0.19 μg/ml. FVII activity was significantly increased with age, whereas the concentration demonstrated no correlation to age in this population. FVII concentration is highly correlated with the activity as measured by clotting assay using rabbit thromboplastin. The ratio between FVIIc and FVIIag was not age-dependent, but demonstrated a significant difference between men and women. Between TF and FVII we could not detect a correlation.
