This article investigates the effect of exogenous phytohormones ABA and IAA on the content of reducing sugars and endogenous phytohormones in cotton seedlings of varieties Porlok-4, obtained on the basis of gene knockout technology and a marker of associated breeding - Ravnak-1. Exogenous phytohormones (ABA and IAA) can significantly change the level of cotton resistance to unfavorable environmental factors. Under the action of exogenous ABA causes an increase of cotton resistance to salinity. Biotechnological cotton variety Ravnak-1 showed sensitivity to prolonged exposure to salinity in combination with phytohormones, increasing the content of reducing sugars and endogenous phytohormones, depending on the duration of salt stress. In the Porlok-4 variety, under the influence of salinity, the content of reducing sugars and endogenous phytohormones had an insignificant increase, due to the inherent adaptive capacity of the variety. The conducted studies allow us to conclude that phytohormones are actively involved in the formation of cotton resistance to the action of unfavorable environmental factors of an abiotic nature.

Potential Role of Cytokines in Children with Acute Appendicitis and Acute Mesenteric Lymphadenitis Although, AAP and AML have different etiological factors, clinical symptoms are very much similar but treatment tactics in both the disease differ a lot. In case of AML, treatment is more conservative and does not require hospitalization while in case of AAP immediate hospitalization and maybe further surgery can be mandatory. With the identification of group of cytokines serum inflammatory mediators IL-8, IL-10, IL-12[p70], IL-17, TNF-a and MCP-1, it is believed early and proper diagnosis of AAP in the near future. Research of cytokines-serum inflammatory mediators has opened new opportunities for an early detection and differentiation of these two diseases in children.
