About propagation of potato by micro- and minitubers
Article contains the information about propagation of potato by micro- and minitubers in Belarus Research Institute for Potato Growing. It begins with the definitions of micro- and minitubers. Two tuber-inducing media without the addition of cytokinins: first with agar and second - liquid were used for mass production of microtubers (dia 5-12 mm) of 4 potato cultivars. Obtained microtubers after sprouting were planted in field. Yield of microtubers was 23-59% to that of conventional seed tubers. Minitubers (8,3-30 g) of 4 potato cultivars were obtained in greenhouse from seedings at 3 planting densities on 1 m2: 275,625,2500. The smallest average minituber weight 8,3 g was obtained at planting density 2500 for cv. Temp. Our results were compared with the data of other researchers about field performance of minitubers of similar dimensions

Biologic-ecological features of the forming of the high-yield crop plants: selection aspects
On the basis of biocenosis approach to the analysis preceding crop plants for high productivity it has been founded promising directions of plants morphophysiological features changes upon the high potential of productivity. It has been shown that a possibility to get higher biological and economic yield per square unit from new variety has been reached owing to the distribution the same biomass to smaller volume. It has been deduced that it is necessary to part the feature "short stem" in two ones: "height of stem" and "sensitivity (reactivity) of genotype to thickening condition". It has been suggested that the coefficients of economic use of the energy FAR are determined by the speed and character of plants morphogenesis so in this directions it is more probably to get a success in selections of genotypes with higher activity of assimilation surface unit.

Veterinary-sanitary characteristics of the cattle meat at leukosis
Physico-chemical parameters for the ailing animals meat have demonstrative deviations from the norm, especially at the hematological and tumor stages of leukosis. In such meat products the protein of disintegration are quickly stored. The protein content is reduced to 0,29-1,06%, fat to 0,21-0,54% depending on the stage of the illness, the moisture level is increased to 0,57-1,07%. The essential aminoacid level decreases: metionin, triptiphan, phenilanin, lisin. The relative biological value of the ailing animals meat is reduced at the stage of infection to 4,2%, at the hematological stage to 11,93%, tumor stage to 19,96%. The toxicity and blastomogenity of leukotic meat for infusoria test-subject Tetrahimena piriformis has been stated. In its feed and biological value the meat of leukotic cattle is inferior to the meat of healthy animals.

Bovine leukosis virus infection in blood producer oxes
Leukosis and other haemoblasoses are recorded in most mammalian species including man. Up to that time there are sufficiently reports about leukosis infection in dogs, cats, rabbits, mice and other species of domestic and wild animals and in poultry too. Development and manifestation of disease in blood producer oxes of biofactories are of particular interest and substantial novelty so far as analogs in the literature are absent. During serological examination of 704 oxes of biofactories antibody to bovine leukosis virus (BLV) was detected in 92% of animals. The detection of nonspecific precipitation lines in 15% producer oxes was a distinctive peculiarity of many hundred thousands studies conducted in common commodity economies. The second precipitation line to polypeptide antigen 24p was recorded in 4% serologically positive animals with hematological manifestation of the disease. Pathological and anatomical changes typical for leukosis were not found in 8 animals slaughtered for the purpose of diagnostics (on the ground of immunological and hematological evidences). The analysis of conclusions of veterinary-sanitary experts for years 1988-1991 did not reveal such changes in no one of oxes slaughtered on meat factories.

Influence of aerostasis in a poultry house on some indices of blood and on the productivity of laying hens under the coop keeping
Aerostasis is a zone of air stagnation in building which negatively influences on animal organism. Aerostasis in a poultry house is characterized by the following unfavorable features of microclimate: the temperature is 3-7 C degree higher than the allowable one, the air velocity is less than 0,1 m/sec, relative humidity is 5-10% higher than the normal one, harmful gases concentration 1,5-2 times overcomes hygienic standards, microbe concentration in the air is 2,5 times more than the normal one. It has been stated that aerostasic condition of microclimate negatively influences on the natural resistance of hens. Blood serum bactericidal activity of poultry staying in local aeristasic zone was 22,3% (p0,05) and 31,3% (p0,01) than for hens in normal microclimatic conditions. Aerostatic microclimate causes decrease in average weightgain to 5,28 gr. ot to 43,8% less per day in comparison with normal microclimate zones.
