The article presents the study results of the frost resistance of sweet cherry varieties of different ripening periods under artificial freezing. The damage degree of various tissues of one-and two-year-old wood, as well as fruit formations, was analyzed. In the group of early-ripening and late-ripening varieties, a significant resistance of the bark to the effect of low temperature was found, the average damage score was 0.7. Among late-ripening cherry varieties Drogana yellow had low-temperature damage to one-year-old wood, while no negative effect on the wood was observed for the Amazonka variety. The highest overall degree of freezing of one-year wood was observed for the varieties Mliivska yellow and Drogana yellow, the lowest values were obtained for the varieties Meotida, Mirage and Amazonka. Dispersion analysis based on a combination of factors confirmed the highest degree of wood freezing for the Mliivska yellow and Drogana yellow varieties. Among the early-ripening varieties, the two-year-old wood froze the most in trees of the Dar Mlieva variety, where the highest degree of damage to the tissues of the bark, cambium, and wood was observed. The least tissue damage was in the Mliivska yellow variety, however, its core had the maximum damage not only within the group, but also among all the studied varieties. By artificial freezing in laboratory conditions, it was established that the highest frost resistance of annual and perennial wood is characteristic of the early ripening variety Zoryana, medium ripening Meotida and late ripening Amazonka. As a result of laboratory freezing, the frost resistance of fruiting bodies did not exceed 2.2 points. The fruiting formations of the Drogana yellow exceeded all the studied varieties in terms of the level of damage. High resistance to low temperatures was shown by the fruiting formations of the varieties Zoryana, Mirage and, especially, Alyonushka. The damage level of other pomological varieties was in the range of 1.9-2.25 points. The most negative effect of low temperatures was caused on flower germs.
Purpose. To indentify the best shallot cultivars and local forms by growing period length, bulb yield, leaf productivity, and bulb weight and number per clump in the Right-Bank Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. Methods. Statistical processing, field assessments, computational and analytical methods. Results. Collection shallot accessions were evaluated for growing period lengthand, bulb weight, number and performance. Earlyripening accession ‘Sh-8’ with a vegetation period of 74 days was selected. Local form ‘Sh-1’ from the Kyivska Oblast region turned out to be the best in terms of the mean bulb weight per clump (26.7 g). Accessions from Kyivska (‘Sh-1’, ‘Sh-2’), Dnipropetrovska (‘Sh-6’, ‘Sh-9’), and Chernihivska (‘Sh-10’) Oblasts yielded the most (30.5, 25.4, 18.9, 18.1, and 19.4 t/ha, respectively). The check cultivar, ‘Lira’, yielded 15.5 t/ha. The smallest yields were harvested from the following accessions: ‘Sh-4’ (12.2 t/ha), ‘Sh-7’ (12.0 t/ha), ‘Sh-11’ (11.9 t/ha), ‘Sh-12’ (13.8 t/ha ha), ‘Sh-13 (13.2 t/ha), and ‘Sh-14’ (13.0 t/ha). Two accessions, which came from the Kyivska (‘Sh-3)’ and Dnipropetrovska (‘Sh-6’) Oblasts were found to be best adapted to the environmental conditions of the Right-Bank Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. Their Lewis’s phenotypic stability factors were close to 1. A local form from the Dnipropetrovska Oblast, ‘Sh 9’ was the worst adapted accessions, as its Lewis’s phenotypic stability factor was as high as 1.2. The maximum leaf length was recorded for accessions from the Kyivska (‘Sh-1’, ‘Sh-2’; 38.0 and 35.8 cm, respectively) and Chernihivska (‘Sh-10’; 36.2 cm) Oblasts. Conclusions. Due to this study, shallot accessions with short growing periods, great weights and numbers of bulbs and yield were selected for the conditions in the Right-Bank Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. ‘Sh-1’ sample originating from the Kyivska Oblast showed the best results in terms of the bulb weight (26.7 g) and yield (30.5 t/ha). However, it turned out to be late-ripening (86 days), and only formed on average 4 bulbs per clump. The maximum leaf length was 38 cm was. ‘Sh-8’, a local form from the Dnipropetrovska Oblast, was the most early-ripening (74 days).
The influence of weather conditions on vegetable crops plays an important role in the cucumber production. The biggest amount of cultivated fields is situated in the areas that are under risk for agriculture. Our research aim is to study different cucumber heterozygous hybrid varieties. Their chemical composition, crop formation, growing season, stem thickness near the root collar, main stem length, leaf area, leaf number per plant are of great importance to form clusters, the samples of which could give the highest cucumber productivity under Ukraine Right-Bank Forest-Steppe conditions. The samples of 36 cucumber heterozygous hybrid varieties of Ukrainian and foreign breeding (Russian, Italian, French) have been studied at Bila Tserkva National Agrarian University Training and Production Center. The variety estimation of 36 heterozygous samples shows that they have 17 traits. It has allowed us to subdivide them into five clusters at the lowest level under Ukraine Right-Bank Forest-Steppe conditions. In the plant nursery, all cucumber varieties are presented by six the most common hybrid samples. There are three samples that have been bred in Ukraine (Suvenir F1, Lyaluk F1, Vodogray F1), 1 in Poland (Sremski F1) and 2 in The Netherlands (Masha F1, Crispina F1).
Onion stemphiliosis is a relatively new disease in Ukraine, so a deeper study of Stemphylium, the species composition of the pathocenosis, and isolation and determination of the species belonging of pathogens of the disease are relevant. The purpose of the study was to examine the species composition of pathocenosis, the biofenology of the causative agent of stemphiliosis, and determine the effectiveness of fungicides for further control of stemphiliosis in onion crops. The main research methods were: field – to determine the spread, development, and harmfulness of stemphiliosis; laboratory – to examine pathogens of onion diseases; visual and mathematical – statistical. The method of mycological crops on potato-dextrose agar (PDA) was used in the work. Field surveys in 2019-2021 established the spread and development of stemphiliosis in onion plantings in the Odesa District of the Odesa region. It was identified that the growing season of 2021 was the most favourable for stemphiliosis, when against the background of high humidity and air temperatures, the spread of the disease was 100%, and the development of the disease reached 79%. In onion crops, the disease developed unevenly, its spread was low in June, with rapid growth in July. At the beginning of August, the percentage of the disease reached 80%. Eight types of fungi were identified, of which Stemphylium vesicarium (Wallr.) Simm, Stemphylium botryosum Wallr, Stemphylium herbarum Simm. – are pathogens of onion stemphiliosis. Laboratory studies established the frequency of their distribution in samples. It is proved that five-time spraying with fungicides helps to reduce the further development of stemphiliosis in onion plantings. The high effectiveness of spraying plants with appropriate fungicides with the active substance fluopyram (200 g/l) + tebuconazole (200 g/l) and fluoxastrobin (100 g/l) + prothioconazole (100 g/l) to suppress the development of spores of pathogens is proven. The provisions and conclusions on the phytosanitary condition of onion plantations in the Odesa region are further developed. The results of the research can serve to develop recommendations for production on the implementation of measures to protect onions from stemphiliosis
Garlic production for the local market and for export lacks a suffi cient amount of high-yielding varieties with large bulbs and small amount of cloves, resistant to pests, diseases and stressful cultivation conditions. In addition to industrial varieties, adapted local forms of self-breeding are currently cultivated. Winter garlic is a plant with vegetative reproduction and it is reproduces with cloves, single clove and air bulbs, Therefore, the varieties brought from other regions degenerate quickly. Two and three times reproduction leads to a gradual reduction in yield and quality. The transfer of local forms from one region to another requires further study. Researches were carried out in conditions of right bank Forest Steppe of Ukraine. We studied 60 samples of winter garlic. The working collection of winter garlic was composed of varieties and local forms brought from Kyiv, Chernihiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Kirovograd and Cherkassy regions. Some samples (45 pcs.) were received from the National Center of Plant Genetic Resources of Ukraine. The variety of Prometey created at Uman University of gardening was used as the control. The research was conducted according to the "Methods of experimental work in vegetable growing and melon-plot fi eld" (G. L. Bondarenko, K. I. Yakovenko, Kharkiv 2001). The plants density was 340 thousand plants ha. On the average for 2017-2020 the heads formed the largest diameter in the variants of IOB00003-Biryuchekutskiy local (55 mm) and IOB00117 (53 mm). Their average weight was the highest in the sample of IOB00117 – 41 g. The smallest heads were formed in the variant of IOB00083 Spas – 17 g. Essentially higher yield of heads of winter garlic was collected from cultivation of plants of the variant IOB00117 – 12,6 t/ha. The greatest share of commodity heads was observed for samples IOB00003-Biryuchekutskiy local and IOB00117 (92 %). Thus, samples of IOB00003-Biryuchekutskiy local and IOB00117 were the best in the diameter, weight of a head and productivity among the samples studied in the research carried. They yielded 9.6 and 12.6 t/ha, respectively, with head weights of 31 and 41 g and the diameter of 55 and 53 cm. Key words: varieties, local forms, collection, winter garlic, weight of the bulb, marketability.
