The author of the article examines the changes that occurred in the life and work of the population of the Volga German Republic under the state of emergency caused by the outbreak of the war. The article examines the transformation of the state’s policy towards the Volga German: from emphasized loyalty to deaf hostility and their eviction from the region. Special attention is paid to the reaction of the Volga German population to the beginning of the war, the participation of the population in activities caused by the war: military mobilization, reception and placement of evacuated enterprises and refugees, the creation of fighter detachments and militia. The most important event that required great efforts of citizens was the harvesting of a rich harvest. The article reveals the participation of the Volga German in a counter-propaganda campaign aimed at the armed forces and the population of Germany. Due to major failures at the front as a reinsurance company in September 1941 the German population of the Volga region was evicted to Siberia and Kazakhstan.

The landscape genre is painting and contemplation through the creation of the architect and professor, doctor of architecture, associate professor Eugen Bognibov, from the Department of Architecture, Faculty of Urbanism and Architecture, Technical University of Moldova. The landscape was certainly one of the favorite types of painting of professional artists, but also for lovers of beauty. The predilection of the architect and painter Eugen Bognibov for the landscape genre can be explained by the fact that the Moldovan lands offer an enormous variety of views and possibilities to practice the landscape: reliefs, forested hills, hills, steppes, roads winding through vineyards, and orchards, cities and villages, water pools, architectural monuments of stone and wood, a true cultural heritage of the country. And the author remarks that the painting dedicated to the architect and professor Eugen Bognibov represents the state of lyricism and harmony, is the link between man and nature, which is distinguished by the colorful freshness of urban, rural, forest landscapes, etc. Various painted views of the historical area of his hometown, Chisinau, images of the morning city bathed in the rays of the generous sun or landscapes near the village of Butuceni, etc. Therefore, the motivation for painting and landscape became for the architect Eugen Bognibov, a free manifestation of his creation through paintings with saturated colors, works presented in various exhibitions

The biological development of a human is an extremely complex and delicate process. It starts from fertilisation and continues until long after birth. The creation and development of the brain is particularly complicated and susceptible to disruptions to its progression. The primary cells responsible for the development of the brain are the neural stem cells. These are a broad class of cells that can differentiate into the wide range of cell types that form the adult brain. To achieve this complex process, different cells need to undergo a range of gene expression changes at the right time. This is delicate and its disturbance is a key cause of pathology in a wide range of diseases. There are many external factors that are known to disrupt neural development however, there are several common chemicals whose effects remain largely unknown. One such group are broadly described as nanoparticles. These are small particles that are being increasingly used by many industries as they can help in the creation of products with better properties. However, their effect on the environment and the human body – particularly that of a developing brain – have been largely unexamined. Associate Professor Ken Tachibana of the Division of Hygienic Chemistry, Sanyo-Onoda City University, Japan is researching the effects of nanoparticles on neural development.

Relevance One of the priority directions of selection is the creation of varieties that are most adapted to local conditions with high productivity. Methods The object of study – varieties and hybrids of pumpkin of three Botanical species: Cucurbita maxima, Cucurbita moschata and Cucurbita pepo. The purpose of the work is the creation and introduction into production of high-yielding varieties of pumpkin with high quality fruits, resistant to bio-and abiotic conditions of the lower Volga region. Research objectives: the study of varietal diversity and identification of genetic sources adapted to the conditions of the region; artificial hybridization, evaluation of the obtained source material on the main economic and valuable features, selection of the best hybrid combinations and testing them in comparison with the best zoned varieties. Results The collection identified genetic sources of productivity: Chino, Sviten, Kham, Creen Warted Habbard, Zukat, Arina, Madam; the quality of the fruit: Sorme poire, Burgess Buttercup Wintes, Malishka, Duchess, Konfetka. Using the selected genetic sources in crossbreeding, new hybrid combinations were obtained, after testing of which the source material for breeding was formed in the hybrid nursery. The table shows the characteristics of the best hybrid populations of pumpkin species S. maxima, S. moschata. The best zoned varieties of table pumpkin created in recent years. Izyashnaya – medium-ripe, shortleaved, high-yielding (17.0-26.0 t/ha), with high quality fruits (12.0-16.0% solids); Izobilie – yield (18.0-25.0 t/ha), drought-resistant; Romantika – medium-ripe, resistant to powdery mildew, yielding (16.0-20.0 t/ha), high quality fruits (10.0-15.0% dry-VA, 60.4 mg% carotene).

Web-based software system for processing bilingual digital resourcesThe article describes a software management system developed at the Institute of Mathematics and Informatics, BAS, for the creation, storing and processing of digital language resources in Bulgarian. Independent components of the system are intended for the creation and management of bilingual dictionaries, for information retrieval and data mining from a bilingual dictionary, and for the presentation of aligned corpora. A module which connects these components is also being developed. The system, implemented as a web-application, contains tools for compilation, editing and search within all components.
