Antagonistic Activity of Bacterial Association of Apple Shoots Against Phytopathogenic Fungi

Microbial associations on surfaces and internal environment on shoots of apple sorts Golden Delicious, Wealthy and Berkutovka with symptoms of fungal infections were studied. 195 strains of epiphytic and endophytic bacteria, of which 8 strains had marked antagonistic activity against phytopathogenic fungi Alternaria alternaria, Aspergillus tubiengensis, Fusarium incarnatum equiseti, Fusarium tricinctum and Phoma fungicola were isolated. Antagonistic bacterial strains are identified as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens SA77, B. badius SA68, B. gibsonii SA104, B. methyloprophicus SA94, B.

Effect of Exopolysaccharides of the Bacterium Paenibacillus Polymyxa 1465 on Growth and Defense Responses of Wheat

Rhizobacteria of the genus Paenibacillus promote plant growth and induced systemic resistance to diverse environmental stresses. Here we present the results for the effect of exopolysaccharides (EPS) obtained from growth of Paenibacillus polymyxa 1465 with different carbon sources on the early stages in the development of wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Saratovskaya 29) and on the peroxidase activity in wheat seedling tissue.

Light Influence on Morphogenesis Wheat

In work results of research morphogenesis wheat are presented at presence or absence of the light factor. Influence of light on growth of all leaf shoot, activity of a cone of increase and growth of germinal root system of a seedling of wheat is established. In the presence of the light factor growth epicotyl begins with the moment of the termination of growth coleoptile. Growth epicotyl occurs synchronously to growth of a sheath of 1st leaf. In the absence of light growth coleoptile and epicotyl proceeds and after end of growth of a plate and a sheath of 1st leaf.

Morphologigal Characteristics of Seeds of Some Iris L. Species in Saratov Region

The Recommended Species of Terrestrial Invertebrates for Including in the New Edition of the Red Book of Saratov Province

In article gave the information of rare and endangered species of terrestrial groups of invertebrates recommended for including in the third edition of the Red book of the Saratov Province (RBSP). Also lists species that should be removed from the list of protected species for several established reasons. The main publications over the past 10 years from the time of release the second edition of RBSP on the population dynamics and distribution of endangered species in the region.

The Rare and Endangered Species of Water Invertebrates Offered for Inclusion in the Third Edition of the Red Book of the Saratov Region

The list of species of water invertebrates and the amphibiotic insects is analysed by results of the long-term researches in 2006 – 2015. Effects of climate transformation and change of the hydrological treatment on a condition of water ecosystems and population of such species are shown. The key factors causing negative consequences for ecosystems of the rivers, floodplain lakes and temporary waterbodies serving as biotopes of rare and endangered species of hydrobionts are defined.
