The article reveals the peculiarities of the selection and appointment of professional judges of Ukraine in the context of constitutional and legal requirements for candidates. It has been established that the specifics of the selection and appointment of professional judges in the context of constitutional and legal requirements for candidates are regulated by: the provisions and norms of the Constitution of Ukraine, the Law of Ukraine «On the Judicial System and the Status of Judges»; the Regulations on the procedure for considering issues and preparing materials for the selection of candidates for the position of a judge for the first time, the Regulations on holding a competition for the vacant position of a judge, approved by the Decisions of the High Qualification Commission of Judges of Ukraine; the Kiev recommendations on the independence of the judiciary in Eastern Europe, the South Caucasus and Central Asia. It is determined that the main stages of the procedure of selection and appointment of professional judges are 14 stages, which can be systematized and recommended in such as: announcement of a competition for the selection of candidates for relevant positions; submission of documents by persons who intend to become professional judges, and their admission to the procedure for selecting candidates applying for the position of judges; the process of organizing the procedure for conducting inspections, as well as collecting information about candidates applying for the position of judges; passing anonymous testing (exam) by candidates applying for the position of judges and sending them to undergo special training; drawing up a qualification exam by candidates applying for the position of judges; drawing up by candidates applying for the position of judges of a re-qualification exam (if the qualification exam was not drawn up successfully the first time, then the candidate applying for the position of a judge can draw it up again, but not earlier than one year later); determination of the rating of candidates applying for positions of judges; the formation and assignment of candidates applying for the positions of judges to the reserve for their replacement of vacant positions of the judge in the future; passing a competition to fill a vacant position of a judge. It is noted that the prospects for further research in this direction are the study of the peculiarities of the procedure for the selection and appointment of candidates for the posts of judges of the Supreme Court.

The results of the study of the duration of the juvenile period of indigenous Chechen willow leaf pear genotypes (Pyrus salicifolia Pall.) are given in connection with the acceleration of the breeding process and the use of selected forms in pear breeding for high precocity. The studies were carried out in 2016-2019 at OOO “Orchards of Chechnya” in accordance with the Agreement on creative cooperation with the Russian Research Institute of Fruit Crop Breeding. The work was carried out in accordance with generally accepted programs and methods. The objects of the study were one-year and two-year-old pear seedlings obtained from sowing seeds of selected dwarf and low-growing local Chechen forms of willow pear (P. salicifolia Pall.), laying fruit buds on annual growths and seedlings of Caucasian pear (P. caucasica Fed.), 20 500 pcs. of each specie. The aim of the research was to study the potential of precocity of willow pear seedlings and to reveal of selected forms with the greatest degree of this trait. Stratified seeds were sown in the sowing department of the OOO “Orchards of Chechnya” production nursery in April, 2017. The seedlings were grown according to the common technology in dryland conditions on the plot with chestnut soil. The first fl owering of plants was noted in the spring, 2019. As a result of the research, for the first time on a large number of the experimental material it was found that in the off spring of the indigenous Chechen willow leaf pear genotypes, the selection of a little more than 2% of seedlings with a very short juvenile period (2 years) was possible. They are of great interest in accelerating the breeding process and in the selection of new pear varieties with high precocity. 20 willow leaf pear genotypes were selected for the further use in breeding for high precocity and as sources of the trait of short juvenile period.

In monographs on Trifolium L., in «Atlas of seeds and fruits of the Central and East” as well as in articles published in prestigious journals the importance of seed characteristics in the taxonomy of clovers is pointed. Among the signs of seeds, the shape of the surface, the structure, size, and shape of their hilum are recorded. In addition, in many «Flora» and «Determinants» there is no data of the seeds, especially their micromorphological features in the description of the species of clover. Takinginto account the above, we studied the shape and structure of 8 species of clovers under an electron microscope. For the first time, micromorphological features of seeds of 8 species (T. angustifolium, T. pratense, T. lappaceum, T. subterraneum, T. resupinatum, T. tumens, T. campestre) of clovers (Trifolium L.) of the Talysh flora, collected from the Lankaran-Lerik region of the Azerbaijan Republic, belonging to 4 subgroups and 6 sections were studied on an electron microscope (SEM). The shape of the seeds, their size, color, surface structure, the shape of hilum and their sizes are important taxonomic features. The structure of seeds of the studied species refers to 4 types: seeds with granular surfaces; seeds with tuberculate surfaces; seeds, which have a surface with crystal-like ledges. Features of the structure of seeds can be used, when specifying the status of subgenera; and sections, the remaining morphological features — when determining species of the genus of clover.

For the first time, micromorphology structure of seeds in 10 species (L. annuus, L. cicera, L. hirsutus, L. tuberosus, L. miniatus, L. pratensis, L. laxiflorus, L. aphaca, L. nissolia, L. sphaericus) belonging to sections (Lathyrus, Pratensis, Aphaca, Nissolia, Linearicarpus) of Lathyrus L. collected from various regions of Azerbaijan were analysed. Seed samples of 10 species were taken for analysis from different biotopes and different populations located away from one-another. Collected seed materials were gathered in special sterile paper bags and their moisture was dried with silicagel substance in laboratory conditions. During the research, morphological characters, as well as general shape, size and colour of seed, length and width of hilum were identified under Leica EZ4D stereomicroscope. The largest seeds have been measured in Lathyrus (L. cicera 4,4–5,0 mm) section and the smallest seeds in Nissolia (L. nissolia 1,8–2,3 mm) section. The longest hilum belongs to L. miniatus 1,8–2,8 mm and the smallest in L. Nissolia 0,4–0,7 mm. The width hilum was measured in L. annuus (0,7–1,0 mm) and the narrow hilum L. nissolia (0,1–0,3 mm). Mature seed (2–3) samples were selected from each type under the SEM, the seeds were placed on stools with double-sided adhesive tapes and covered with gold powder through the JEOL JFC1600 ion-spray device for 1 to 2 minutes. Seed samples were researched on the side surface. The photos of the surface of seeds were taken in a 3000× size in JEOL JSM6610 lv electronic microscope, and structural analysis of the different places of their surfaces was conducted. The results showed that the microscopic research of the surface of seed is of taxonomic importance and is used in specification of the status of sections. The morphological properties such as surface structure, hilum length and width, papillae features can be used to differentiate some sections and species, but seed size, general shape seed and hilum, seed colour are not characteristics can be used to differentiate some sections.

AbstractPsittacid Adenovirus-2 (PsAdv-2) was identified in captive orange-bellied parrots (Neophema chrysogastor) during a multifactorial cluster of mortalities at the Adelaide Zoo, South Australia, and an outbreak of Pseudomonas aeruginosa septicaemia at the Tasmanian Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment captive breeding facility, Taroona, Tasmania. This was the first time that an adenovirus had been identified in orange-bellied parrots and is the first report of PsAdv-2 in Australia. To investigate the status of PsAdv-2 in the captive population of orange-bellied parrots, 102 healthy birds from five breeding facilities were examined for the presence of PsAdv-2 DNA in droppings and/or cloacal swabs using a nested polymerase chain reaction assay. Additionally, eight birds released to the wild for the 2016 breeding season were similarly tested when they were recaptured prior to migration to be held in captivity for the winter. PsAdv-2 was identified in all breeding facilities as well as the birds recaptured from the wild. Prevalence of shedding ranged from 29.7 to 76.5%, demonstrating that PsAdv-2 is endemic in the captive population of orange-bellied parrots and that wild parrots may have been exposed to the virus. PsAdv-2 DNA was detected in both cloacal swabs and faeces of the orange-bellied parrots, but testing both samples from the same birds suggested that testing faeces would be more sensitive than cloacal swabs. PsAdv-2 was not found in other psittacine species housed in nearby aviaries at the Adelaide Zoo. The source of the infection in the orange-bellied parrots remains undetermined. In this study, PsAdv-2 prevalence of shedding was higher in adult birds as compared to birds less than one year old. Preliminary data also suggested a correlation between adenovirus shedding prevalence within the breeding collection and chick survival.

This essay takes up the relation between free speech and academic freedom by inquiring into the problem of academic conscience. Its claim is that academic conscience originates in a certain kind of unmourned loss. To substantiate this claim, it comments on a text written by Hannah Arendt in 1958, one year after the Supreme Court for the first time recognized academic freedom as a First Amendment right. It concludes by explaining the reason why we should understand these two freedoms in terms of academic conscience: the more we comprehend the vicissitudes unique to academic conscience, the more we can comprehend how it risks closing down the same space it inaugurates and, at best, holds open.

The article examines the ethnocultural processes taking place in the Finno-Ugric community, on the example of the implementation of the program “Cultural capital of the Finno-Ugric world.” For several years, the project has provided an opportunity for the Finno-Ugric peoples to communicate more, exchange experience, allow them to declare their characteristics, show the uniqueness and originality of peoples, nature, and culture. At the same time, it stimulates the cultural and economic development of the regions where the Finno-Ugric peoples live. The title of the capital of culture is awarded after passing two rounds: the first – competitive selection of applications; the second is the presentation of your project. The status of the Finno-Ugric capital is assigned for one year and imposes a special responsibility on the organizers, since the events are attended by a large number of people and they are widely covered in the media. During the course of this program, settlements from Russia, Estonia and Hungary received this title.

PurposeTo identify the factors that need to be addressed by Indian industry to steeply ramp up its production and productivity in the coming years, so as to achieve the goal of the country becoming a 5 trillion dollar economy by 2025.Design/methodology/approachLean Management Leaders in Indian Industry (LMLII), i.e. those companies in India who are well known for having adopted TQM, BE and Lean methods for many years, and achieved success in their business) in Indian industry were selected and surveys were done between 2013 and 2017, to assess the status of LM adoption, by using the LESAT (version 2.0) survey tool. A longitudinal empirical study has been done, over a period of five years, so that the identification of factors is based on a few years’ data rather than a one year, spot-check or snapshot view. A new method, titled the ‘Three Step Reverse Exploratory Factor Analysis Procedure (TSREP)’, has been attempted to identify the ‘root causes’.FindingsLMLII's have improved in their adoption of LM over these years by about 10%. The root causes that can help in further advancement in adoption have been identified and classified under six component factors.Research limitations/implicationsThe identification of LMLII's has been done based on the experience and views of experts in TQM/ BE/ Lean in India. Since this is a first of such study (viz., the term LMLII is being defined and used for the first time), this methodology has been adopted. However, in future, a systematic way to assess the criteria for LMLII's could be designed. Secondly, the sample size of LMLII's needs to be fully representative of the industry.Practical implicationsBy using the results of this study, Indian companies can accelerate their LM adoption programmes, leading to quantum jumps in production and productivity, so as to achieve the 5 trillion USD economy by 2025. The practical implications are immense.Social implicationsSince LM is a bundle of Lean, TQM and BE, companies adopting LM will, due to the inclusion of waste reduction through 5S, JIT, kaizens and continuous improvement, address the Triple Bottom Line (TBL) protocol of the UN. TBL has comprehensive implications on society and environment, climate change and sustainability of business.Originality/valueThis work is original, at least in three ways. First, in the use of the concept of ‘LML’. Second, there is no previous longitudinal study done on Indian industry in LM. Third, the TSREP is being used for the first time. The value of this research is in its findings, in the identification of key factors for future growth and the use of a novel technique for improving upon the accuracy, analytical rigour and legitimacy of the results.

As a result of the expedition, herbarium and literature review, the article presents a new conspectus of the genus Lathyrus L. s. l. of the South Caucasus (Azerbaijan Republic). The study revealed a new area of two species (L. hirsutus L., L. inconspicuus L.) and clarified the status of one species (L. leptophyllus Bieb.). For the first time, micromorphology structure of seeds in some species (L. annuus, L. cicera, L. hirsutus, L. tuberosus, L. miniatus, L. pratensis, L. laxiflorus, L. aphaca, L. nissolia, L. sphaericus) were included by scanning electron microscope. Morphological characters of the sections were analysed according to Kupicha with some additions. Our work showed that Lathyrus seeds are circular, pressed-angular, elliptical, coloured in brown tones, with tuberculate, smooth, reticulate-rugulose surface. In the article, in contrast to the classification according to "Flora of Azerbaijan", species belonging to the genus Orobus are included in the genus Lathyrus.

The bibliography brings together more than 250 scientific papers and books written by Alwyne (Wyn) Wheeler over fifty years, from 1955–2006. This chronological list shows that from the beginning his research followed three themes: taxonomy of historically important fish collections; identification and distribution of the British and European fish fauna ; the status of British fishes in a changing environment. Until the mid-point in Wyn's career he published regularly on the identification of fish remains in archaeological sites in Britain and Europe. Wyn also wrote under an alias, Allan Cooper, and these have been listed separately. The bibliography concludes with a selection of the regular columns he contributed to angling magazines.

This study deals with children's literature translated from Castilian Spanish into Galician, Basque and Catalan by a different publisher from that of the source text, between 1940 and 1980, and with the criteria used to choose books for translation during that period. It compares the different literatures within Spain and examines the intersystemic and intercultural relations that the translations reflect. Following the polysystems theory, literature is here conceived as a network of agents of different kinds: authors, publishers, readers, and literary models. Such a network, called a polysystem, is part of a larger social, economic, and cultural network. These extra-literary considerations play an important role in determining the selection of works to be translated. The article suggests that translations can be said to establish transcultural relations, and that they demonstrate different levels of power within a specific interliterary community. It concludes that, while translations may aim to change the pre-existent relationships, frequently they just reflect the status quo.
