The purpose of the research is to determine appropriate mineral composition of the selective medium for effective in vitro selection for resistance to anthracnose. Various mineral composition media were studied. It was found that it is possible to use nutrient media Gamborg, MS, SH-2, which do not contain vitamins, chelate complex and phytohormones, in order to obtain cultural filtrates of fungus strains - the causative agent of flax anthracnose. The culture filtrates obtained on the basis of these media were highly toxic and it was possible to use them for in vitro selection. It was noted that the callus formed on the basis of hypocotyl segments had a higher ability for morphogenesis compared to the callus formed on the basis of immature embryos. As for selective medium consisting of mineral salts of Gamborg medium and cultural filtrate, the proportion of formed morphogenic callus was the smallest in all genotypes taken in the study and amounted to 0.1–6.8%. Mineral composition of the selective medium and the morphogenetic potential of the genotype influenced the formation of morphogenic callus based on primary callus. Depending on the genotype, the proportion of morphogenic calli formed on Gamborg medium + CF was 0.1 - 2.2%, on MS medium + CF - 3.3 - 8.0%, on Sh-2 medium + CF - 3.4 – 8.1%, respectively. Mineral composition of the selective medium had no significant effect on formation of morphogenic cells based on transplanted callus. The proportion of morphogenic callus was 3.0–5.2% for Lenok variety; 3.0 - 5.4% - Rosinka; 0.1 - 4.3% - Zaryanka; 3.1 - 5.5% - for L 2053-5-11 line; 6.1 - 7.4% - L 957-8-7.

In case of system analysis, this goal is achieved by widespread usage of modeling, which allows to substantiate not only the parameters of the appropriate process mode, but also to choose the most suitable way to control the drying process under production conditions. The conditions for heat transfer from the heating surface to the grain depend on the heat given off by the heating surface of the drying chamber, W; heat transfer coefficient W/(m2 ºС), temperature of the heating surface and the grain at the outlet from the drying chamber, °С; heating surface area, m2. In addition, in case of contact heat transfer, the problem of grain heating is linear (tgr2 = f(z, )), where z is the distance from the grain to the heating surface, m; - time from the drying process start, s. It was found that the heating temperature limit of the surface of the drying chamber (made in the form of a cylinder, with a screw transporting working body) should not exceed 61С to ensure the grain temperature at the chamber outlet of 39С. In case of using a belt conveyor in the drying chamber and if it is in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped, the temperature limit of the chamber surface heating is 69 С. When the drying chamber is made in the form of a stepped surface enclosed in a box with vibration induction of grain movement, the heating temperature of this surface can be increased to 129 С without harm to the dried grain quality.

To describe the manifestation of yeast-like fungal infections in the liver, we performed a pathoanatomical autopsy of 90 reptiles with a preliminary diagnosis of mycosis, followed by selection, fixation and histological examination of the affected liver according to the generally accepted method. Laboratory research methods were carried out by inoculating biological material on Sabouraud nutrient medium to confirm the diagnosis. We detected changes characteristic of granulomatous process in the liver with candidosis. Granulomas were located both on the surface of the organ and inside.
