Aim. Study of the dynamics Gentiana lutea L. plant growth processes in vitro depending on the light regime changes of their cultivation in order to develop a scheme to increase their adaptive potential. Methods. Methods of plant cultivation in vitro, biometric method, as well as ANOVA variance analysis and middle group analysis in pairs using the T...

Aim. To study the phenotypic polymorphism of Trifolium repens L. populations growing under various anthropogenic load. Methods. The quantitative calculation of the leaves of the white clover by the presence or absence of the white leaf mark; the identification of the phenotype and genotype of the plant according to the pattern of the white leaf mar...

The species diversity of the insects of Nimphalinae subfamily (Lepidoptera order), which are stored in the entomological collection of The Botany and Zoology Department of Ternopil Volodymyr Hnatiuk National Pedagogical University were studied. The insects were collected by the students during their teacher training and also by the amateur entomolo...

The use of microalgae for the economic needs and the commercial goals determines the areas of the scientific researches that will make it possible to increase their productivity. It is also important to direct the metabolism of the algae to the activating of certain synthetic processes in order to obtain the desired compounds. The metals and non-me...

Goal. To analyze the distribution of the Western Corn Rootworm (Diabrotica virgifera virgifera Le Conte) in the Ternopil region during 2016—2020. Methods. To generalize the results of phytosanitary monitoring of the spread of the regulated harmful organism on the territory of Ukraine and on the territory of Ternopil region according to the data pro...

The development of the nature reserve fund of Ternopil region over the last 30 years has been analyzed and the current situation has been assessed. A significant increase in the number (by 236 units) of protected areas and an insignificant increase of area of the nature reserve fund (by 21.34 kha) have been showed. There are 643 objects in the natu...

The aim of the study was to develop the system of PCR-based markers for assessment of genetic diversity and population genetic studies of G. lutea L. as well as to determine the utility of two indices of marker informativeness. The informativeness was determined for 40 PCR primers of different types (RAPD, ISSR, IRAP, RGAP, CDDP markers) by evaluat...

Features of genetic structure and level of diversity of G. lutea populations from the Chornohora Ridge of the Ukrainian Carpathians were studied using RAPD- and ISSR-PCR. A high level of genetic diversity for studied populations concerning these DNA-markers is shown. The differences between populations are equal to 59–72% of the total genetic varia...

Analysis of five natural (Lemska, Gutyn Tomnatyk, Sheshul-Pavlyk, Krachunyeska, Troyaska-Tataruka) and one man-made (Pozhyzhevska) populations of G. lutea of the Ukrainian Carpathians based on the parameters of genetic diversity (polimorphy, heterozygosis, the division of the total genetic variation for intra- and interpopulation) and ecological ch...
