Investigation of the features of the meiosis flow in winter wheat varieties — carriers wheat-rye translocations 1BL.1RS and 1AL.1RS. Methods. A comparative analysis of the meiosis flow in winter wheat varieties, the carriers of various translocations, was carried out using the method of temporary pressure preparations. Results. The frequency and spectrum of meiosis anomalies in introgressive winter wheat varieties with wheat-rye translocations 1BL.1RS and 1AL.1RS are established. The variability of the frequency of violations at different stages of microsporogenesis in the carrier classes of a certain translocation is shown, which may be due to a different period of stabilization of their genomes. It was found that the frequency of violations in varieties with different translocations did not exceed 10 %, which is normal for stable introgressive varieties. Conclusions. It was found that in all stages of microsporogenesis in the number of cells with violations and their spectrum, varieties with translocation of 1BL.1RS are slightly different from those with translocation of 1AL.1RS.

The 5S rDNA represents a convenient model for studying of the molecular evolution of tandemly arranged repeated sequences. However, in many groups of angiosperms this genomic region still remains poorly studied. So far, in the family Solanaceae the 5S rDNA was described only for five genera. In order to elucidate the 5S rDNA organization in representatives of other genera of Solanaceae, we decided to explore organization of this region in Brunfelsia uniflora (tribe Petunieae). Methods. PCR amplification, cloning and sequencing of 5S rDNA. Results. Three clones of 5S rDNA of Brunfelsia uniflora were sequenced. It was found that only one class of repeats ranging in length from 343 to 347 bp is present in the genome of B. uniflora. The level of intragenomic similarity for the 5S rDNA intergeneric spacer regions (IGS) ranges from 86.7 to 96.4 %. The IGSs of B. uniflora and of other members of Solanaceae family differ significantly: the sequence homology was detected only for sequence motives required for RNA polymerase III transcription initiation and termination. Conclusions. The molecular evolution of the 5S rDNA IGS occurs at a high rate in the Solanaceae family. Accordingly, the comparison of the IGS should be used to clarify the phylogenetic relationship between taxa of low rank, in particular between species and genera of the tribe Petunieae.

The main method of rapid and reliable diagnosis of this group of inherited disorders is determination of amino acids and acylcarnitines level by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. Results. Reference intervals of amino acids and acylcarnitines concentration in dry blood samples of newborns from different regions of Ukraine haven’t differed.

The reaction of soybean plants on the effect of water stress was determined in climatic chambers at the temperature of 30–32 °C. Results. The genetic variability in absorption of water by seeds of various soybean cultivars was detected especially at the initial stages of soaking. The tolerance to drought is associated with the level of free proline accumulation and water-keeping proteins in the leaves, the area of the leaf surface, the loss of moisture by the plant for a certain period, the development of the root system.
