Stages Of Growth

1. The age changes in carcass composition of female kids killed at birth, 9, 16, 25 and 30 lb. are described.2. The organs and tissues of the kids were weighed both wet and oven-dried, allowing the dry-matter percentages at different stages of growth to be calculated. The total dry-matter percentage for day-old kids averaged 26·5%, rising to a maximum of 40·5% at the 25 lb. stage. The greatest increase in dry-matter percentage was between birth and the 9 lb. stage, which was reached at approximately 1 month. This increase in dry matter is chiefly due to a steady rise in the dry-matter content of the muscular and skeletal tissues; from 20·2 to 25·4%, and from 34·3 to 59·6%, respectively, between birth and maturity.3. The various joints of the kid were weighed and recorded separately, and the changes in the proportions of the joints illustrated centripetal growth. At birth, the joints were present in the following proportions: thorax 30%; legs 40%; head 20%; pelvis 10%. As the kid developed, there was a marked increase in the proportion of thorax and pelvis, accompanied by a corresponding decrease in the proportion of the head and foreleg.

The article is devoted to the study of the effect of foliar treatment of Tomatillo plants with the use of drugs of bacterial origin. The paper scientifically substantiates the influence of biologicals on the morphological and biometric parameters of the plant. It was investigated that the emergence of seedlings in varieties Lichtaryk and Pineapple was observed for 7-8 days. After diving and two treatments of plants with drugs, their positive effect on the growth and development of Tomatillo, especially in the phase of budding, flowering and fruiting. A short period of bud formation on the plant was characterized by a variety of Tomatillo Lantern from the use of Biomag. Thus, the beginning of the formation of buds occurred on 66 days on the Lantern variety. A similar effect of the biological product was found during the flowering phase and fruit set. As a result of the activity of Azotobacter chorococum bacteria, the growth and development phases of the Lantern variety are accelerated by 1-3 days compared to the control variant. The use of biological products has had a positive effect on the biometric parameters of the plant. When using bacteria p. Saccharomyces, Azotobacter chroococcum, Paenibacillus polymyxa, Enterobacter nimipressuralis, plant height and stem diameter depended on the type of biological product used. The height of the plant ranged from 82,8 cm to 89,6 cm in the variety Lantern and from 86,8 cm to 91,3 cm in the variety Pineapple. As a result of spraying the plants with Azotobacterin or Rostmoment, the height of the Tomatillo plant exceeded the height of the plant of the variant where biological products were not used. In these variants, the excess of plant height relative to the control was 8,2% for the variety Lantern and 4,3 % for the variety Pineapple, respectively. The diameter of the stem was in the range of 1,9-2,0 cm. Due to the activity of the bacteria Azotobacter chroococcum, Paenibacillus polymyxa, Enterobacter nimipressuralis or yeast p. Saccharomyces and products of their metabolism, revealed a positive effect of biologicals on the increase in leaf area and dry matter content of the leaf. As a result of cultivation of the cultivar Lichtarik and application of Rostmoment or Biopolitsid the area of leaves was at the level of 79,5 thousand м2/ha and 77,6 thousand м2/ha. Growth moment, for the cultivation of the variety Lantern, helped to increase the dry matter content of the leaf by 16,4 %. Treatment of Lantern plants with liquid humus-based concentrate Humisol provided the highest weight of Tomatillo fruit, which was at the level of 8,4 g, and the use of Humisol or Rostmoment for growing varieties Lantern and Pineapple increases the diameter of Tomatillo fruit by 6,9-10,3 %. Humisol, due to humic and fulvic acids, natural phytohormones affects the growth processes of the plant more intensively, which provided in the formation of the largest mass of fruits and their diameter. High yield is characterized by the Tomatillo variety Lantern with five applications of Humisol or Biopolicide, where its value is 33,3 t/ha and 32,0 t/ha. Key words: morphological features, biometric indicators, tomatillo, fruit yield, marketability.

Vegetative Organs

The dry matter and moisture contents of the aboveground vegetative organs and kernels of four maize hybrids were studied in Martonvásár at five harvest dates, with four replications per hybrid. The dry matter yield per hectare of the kernels and other plant organs were investigated in order to obtain data on the optimum date of harvest for the purposes of biogas and silage production.It was found that the dry mass of the aboveground vegetative organs, both individually and in total, did not increase after silking. During the last third of the ripening period, however, a significant reduction in the dry matter content was sometimes observed as a function of the length of the vegetation period. The data suggest that, with the exception of extreme weather conditions or an extremely long vegetation period, the maximum dry matter yield could be expected to range from 22–42%, depending on the vegetation period of the variety. The harvest date should be chosen to give a kernel moisture content of above 35% for biogas production and below 35% for silage production. In this phenophase most varieties mature when the stalks are still green, so it is unlikely that transport costs can be reduced by waiting for the vegetative mass to dry.

Цель исследований – дать оценку сохраняемости и болезнеустойчивости современных сортов и гибридов моркови столовой и определить корреляционные зависимости влияния биохимических показателей качества на сохраняемость и степень поражения моркови столовой различными видами болезней в процессе хранения. Исследования проводились в 2011–2016 годах во ВНИИО – филиале ФГБНУ ФНЦО по общепринятым методикам. В биохимической лаборатории отдела земледелия и агрохимии содержание сухого вещества определяли высушиванием до абсолютно сухого веса, общего сахара – по Бертрану, аскорбиновой кислоты – по Мурри, нитраты – ионоселективным методом. При характеристике моркови столовой важнейший показатель, определяющий его качество – количество сухого вещества и сахаров. В процессе хранения были выявлены следующие болезни моркови: серая гниль (Botrytis cinerea Pers. ex Fr.), белая гниль (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.)), белая парша (Rhizoctonia carotae Rad.), альтернариоз (Alternaria radicina M., Dr. et E.). В большей степени сортообразцы моркови столовой поражались серой гнилью. Лучшими по сохраняемости сортообразцами были Корсар (94,6%), F1Берлин (94,5%), Берликум Роял (94,1%) и F1 Звезда (94%). Сохраняемость у зарубежных сортов и гибридов моркови столовой была немного выше, чем у отечественных (на 0,4%) как за счет меньшей величины убыли массы (6,3% против 6,4%), так и потерь от болезней (1,6% против 1,9%). Сохраняемость корнеплодов моркови находится в прямой корреляционной зависимости от содержания сухого вещества (r=+0,41), каротиноидов (r=+0,39), моносахаров (r­=+0,30) и суммы сахаров (r=+0,27). Проявление серой гнили находится в обратной корреляционной связи с содержанием сухого вещества и каротиноидов (r=-0,37 и r=-0,35 соответственно), белой парши – в прямой корреляции с содержанием сухого вещества , моносахаров и дисахаров (r= +0,21; r= +0,39; r= -0,41 соответственно), белой гнили в обратной корреляционной связи с содержанием сухого вещества, моносахаров и дисахаров. The purpose of the research is to assess the persistence and disease resistance of modern varieties and hybrids of carrots and to determine the correlation between the influence of biochemical quality indicators on the persistence and degree of damage to carrots by various types of diseases during storage. The research was conducted in 2011–2016 at ARRIVG – branch of FSBSI FSVC, according to generally accepted methods. In the biochemical laboratory of the Department of Agriculture and Agrochemistry, the dry matter content was determined by drying to absolutely dry weight, total sugar – by Bertran, ascorbic acid – by Murri, nitrates – by the ion-selective method. When describing carrots, the most important indicator that determines its quality is the amount of dry matter and sugars. During storage, the following diseases of carrots were detected: gray rot (Botrytis cinerea Pers. ex Fr.), white rot (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.), white scab (Rhizoctonia carotae Rad.), alternariasis (Alternaria radicina M., Dr. et E.). To a greater extent, varieties of table carrots were affected by gray rot. The best preserved varieties were Corsar (94.6%), F1 Berlin (94.5%), Berlicum Royal (94.1%) and F1 Zvezda (94%). The persistence of foreign varieties and hybrids of table carrots was slightly higher than that of domestic ones by 0.4%. both due to a smaller amount of weight loss (6.3% vs. 6.4%) and losses from diseases (1.6% vs. 1.9%). The persistence of carrot root crops is directly correlated with the content of dry matter (r=+0.41), carotenoids (r=+0.39), monosaccharides (r=+0.30) and the amount of sugars (r=+0.27). The manifestation of gray rot is in inverse correlation with the content of dry matter and carotenoids (r=-0.37 and r=-0.35, respectively), white scab is in direct correlation with the content of dry matter (r= +0.21; r= +0.39; r= –0.41, respectively), white rot is in inverse correlation with the content of dry matter, monosaccharides and disaccharides.
