In this study, the antifungal potential of chemical constituents from Piper pesaresanum and some synthesized derivatives was determined against three phytopathogenic fungi associated with the cocoa crop. The methodology included the phytochemical study on the aerial part of P. pesaresanum, the synthesis of some derivatives and the evaluation of the antifungal activity against the fungi Moniliophthora roreri, Fusarium solani and Phytophthora sp. The chemical study allowed the isolation of three benzoic acid derivatives (1–3), one dihydrochalcone (4) and a mixture of sterols (5–7). Seven derivatives (8–14) were synthesized from the main constituents, of which compounds 9, 10, 12 and 14 are reported for the first time. Benzoic acid derivatives showed strong antifungal activity against M. roreri, of which 11 (3.0 ± 0.8 µM) was the most active compound with an IC50 lower compared with positive control Mancozeb® (4.9 ± 0.4 µM). Dihydrochalcones and acid derivatives were active against F. solani and Phytophthora sp., of which 3 (32.5 ± 3.3 µM) and 4 (26.7 ± 5.3 µM) were the most active compounds, respectively. The preliminary structure–activity relationship allowed us to establish that prenylated chains and the carboxyl group are important in the antifungal activity of benzoic acid derivatives. Likewise, a positive influence of the carbonyl group on the antifungal activity for dihydrochalcones was deduced.

Relevance. In September, 2017 the International Convention on Control of Ships’ Ballast Waters and sediments, in which the Russian Federation takes part, came into effect.Aim of article is to cover the results of implementation of the Convention in Russia, regarding selection and analysis of ballast waters tests for compliance with the international standard.Material and methods. The materials for work were data on ship arrivals at the international seaports of the Russian Federation, provided by sanitary and quarantine departments of the Russian ports, and monitoring researches of ballast waters in seaports of some regions of the Russian Federation. Analytical, bacteriological, molecular methods were applied.Results. The studies of ballast waters in the Leningrad and Kaliningrad regions have been conducted for the first time in 2018, and in the Rostov region the study lasts since 2010. The laboratory researches of ships’ ballast showed that E. coli, Enterococcus spp. were in norm, V. cholerae O1 and O139 in ballast were absent. 12 of 21 ballast water tests investigated by specialists of the Rostov region laboratories contained V. cholerae non-O1/non-O139, ballast was taken on the ships which arrived from Romania and Turkey.Сonclusion. The results of the molecular and genetic researches suggest that there is a probability of V. сholeraе introduction brougth with ship ballast. Management decisions are demanded to ensure biological safety of shipping and to decrease intestinal infections incidence in residents of the seaside cities.

Modern constitutional transformations, asserting a “value” legal understanding, actualize theoretical and practical problems of legislative regulation, serve as a prereq- uisite for rethinking the essence, role and significance of law in the life of society, and determine the formulation of a number of issues related, first of all, to the qualitative implementation of novelties. This collection reflects the diversity and depth of scientific discussions of the XV In- ternational school of young legal scholars on the topic “Constitution and modernization of legislation”, which was held by the Institute of legislation and comparative law under the Government of the Russian Federation in cooperation with the International Union of lawyers. In the context of a difficult epidemiological situation related to the spread of corona- virus infection, in order to protect the health of conference participants, the organizing Committee decided to hold the XV School remotely (by correspondence). For the first time, all its scientific events were held online. The participants had a unique opportunity to communicate with the direct developers of amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation, present their reports in a new format.

Abstract. The purpose of the research was to assess the duration of the length of productive life of Simmental cows. Methods. The research was carried out on Simmental cows bred in 14 regions of the Russian Federation, the total livestock was 8 832 heads. The calculation of the heritability coefficients and correlation (genetic and paratypic) was carried out by using the programs RENUMF90 and REMLF90. Results. A fairly strong relationship was established between the duration of a productive life (months) and the age of culling (lactations) r = +0.795, the length of productive life (months) and lifetime productivity within the range of +0.669…+0.714. However, the relationship between the age of culling (lactations) and lifetime productivity is moderate, from +0.261 to +0.316. A moderate negative relationship was obtained between the age of culling (lactations) and milk yield per first lactation from –0.472 to –0.486. The average relationship was found between milk yield per first lactation and lifetime productivity from +0.567 to +0.588. Cows of the Altai Territory (3.08 lactations or 61.6 months), the Republic of Mordovia (3.38 lactations or 62.4 months) and the Lipetsk region (3.40 lactations or 65.7 months) were distinguished by low age of culling. While the greatest length of productive life was noted in animals and Bryansk (5.48 lactations or 86.9 months) and Irkutsk regions (4.57 lactations or 77.1 months). Bryansk (23 630 kg of milk), Tyumen (18 156 kg) and Irkutsk (17 751 kg) regions occupied the leading positions in lifetime productivity of cows in the sample, while the outsiders were the regions of traditional cattle breeding - Altai Territory (12658 kg of milk), the Republic of Bashkiria (12 482 kg). Scientific novelty. For the population Simmental cattle of the Russian Federation, for the first time, an assessment of selection and genetic parameters of lifelong productivity and length of productive life of Simmental cows was carried out, depending on the breeding region.

The purpose of this work is to analyze regional characteristics of drug use in the Russian Federation in order to form a general picture of the spread of drug use in the country and to develop effective anti-drug policy measures that meet the challenges of the current drug situation. The regions of the Russian Federation that have, according to statistics, the maximum and minimum indicators of drug use are considered. The results of the analysis of current medical statistics (indicators for the number of people with the first-time established drug dependence syndrome, as well as the number of people with the first-time established diagnosis of “harmful (with harmful consequences) drug use”, the number of cases of acute drug poisoning, etc.), law enforcement statistics (indicators for the number of registered crimes in the field of illicit drug trafficking, the number of seized drugs, the structure of the most common drugs, etc.). A secondary analysis of specialized literature, as well as data from research conducted by the sector of sociology of deviant behavior of the Federal Center of Theoretical and Applied Sociology of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The problem of drug abuse in various regions of our country does not lose its urgency to this day. The presence of a huge territory that unites numerous regions that are diverse in their characteristics causes the polarization of indicators of drug use within the country. Based on the results of the work, conclusions were obtained about the most risky regional features in the drug sphere, as well as regional features that act as a kind of protective factors against the spread of drug use.

Omphalocele is a congenital malformation belonging to the group of abdominal wall defects. Objective. To determine the incidence of omphalocele and analyze its dynamics for the period 2011–2018 in the regions of the Russian Federation according to monitoring data of congenital anomalies. Materials and methods. Statistical analysis of omphalocele cases among newborns and fetuses with malformations for the period 2011–2018 in 22 regions of the Russian Federation was carried out. The incidence of malformations was calculated per 10,000 births. Results. A total of 1,073 cases of omphalocele were reported from 2011 to 2018, of which 69.34% were in fetuses eliminated due to the prenatal detection of malformation, 27.03% – in liveborn fetuses, and 3.63% – in stillborn fetuses. The male to female ratio was 1.56:1. The overall incidence of omphalocele was 2.95 (95% CI 2.77– 3.13) and the incidence among newborns excluding fetuses was 0.9 per 10,000 (95% CI 0.81– 1.01). There was a statistically significant positive time trend in the dynamics of the overall incidence of omphalocele between 2011 and 2018. Conclusion. The evaluation of the incidence of severe malformation – omphalocele – was obtained in different regions of the Russian Federation for the first time. The incidence of this malformation tended to increase over the study period. Male gender and maternal age over 35 years can be considered as risk factors. These results can be used in planning preventive measures. Key words: congenital malformation, monitoring, newborns, omphalocele, fetuses, incidence, epidemiology
