AGRICULTURAL AND BREEDING PREREQUISITES FOR SUCCESSFUL INTRODUCTION OF MIRONOVKA WINTER WHEAT VARIETIES IN THE USSR AS THE BASE FOR INTRODUCING NEW VARIETIES RESISTANT TO SIBERIAN... by V. E. Kozlov

“…As shown by the experience of the Mironovka Institute of wheat selection and seed production in the USSR, the large scale of the use of varieties raised at the Institute was determined by their winter resistance and the development of varietyoriented technologies, depending on the climatic belt, soil, rotation of crops, watering mode, etc. In our opinion, extensive growing of the new varieties is greatly hampered by the absence of such technologies for Siberia. …”

Spectral Characterization of Fungal Metabolites in Aqueous Medium with Humus Substances by D. A. Khundzhua, S. V. Patsaeva, V. A. Terekhova, V. I. Yuzhakov

“…The experiments revealed that the effect of microscopic fungi growing in the culture medium with added humate appeared as changes in the humic-type fluorescence: its characteristics became more similar to that of nonliving organic matter in natural waters than to original humate preparation. The experiments demonstrated degradation of coal-originated humate due to microbial activity into compounds of smaller molecular size and increased heterogeneity. …”
