Rheological properties are an important parameter for the quality of mayonnaise. This article in-vestigated the effect of adding olive oil on the rheological properties and color change of mayon-naise. The influence of the storage time of mayonnaise in the refrigerator on the change in rheo-logical properties was also investigated. Mayonnaise was prepared on a laboratory rotary disperser of the Turrex type with a rotor / stator system with a rotor speed range (10000-30000 rpm) at room temperature. Mayonnaise contains 75% oil with varying proportions of sunflower oil and ol-ive oil. Rheological measurements were carried out on a Brookfield rotary viscometer with con-centric cylinders at temperatures of 10 ° C and 25 ° C. Based on the data obtained, the consistency coefficient of the rheological parameters, the flow index and the apparent viscosity were calculat-ed. The color of the test samples of mayonnaise was measured using a three-color colorimeter. All mayonnaise samples exhibit non-Newtonian pseudoplastic flow with a defined thixotropic loop area. Research results have shown that the addition of olive oil affects the rheological properties and color of mayonnaise. The addition of olive oil to the oil phase of mayonnaise reduces shear stress, apparent viscosity, consistency factor and color change at 25 ° C and 10 ° C. When storing mayonnaise in the refrigerator for 15 days, the rheological parameters change. Sunflower oil may-onnaise (75%) has the highest value (L), which means it is measured instrumentally as the bright-est.

The taxonomic composition of rhizosphere complexes of microscopic fungi was determined under nine varieties of faba beans grown in small-plot experiments on black soil with a pH of 7.6, ob-serving zonal agricultural techniques (Belgorod, Russia). It was revealed that under different vari-eties of faba beans the list of micromycete species is not the same, but their number is lower than in control soil. The number of micromycete propagules in the rhizosphere of beans (34 ± 1.7 thou-sand CFU / g soil) is on average 2 times higher than in the control soil (17 ± 1.2 thousand CFU / g soil). The greatest species diversity was found in the varieties Velena and Akvadul (18 and 16 species, respectively). The mycocomplexes of the Tsarskiy Yield and Leader varieties were dis-tinguished by the greatest similarity with the control. Phytopathogenic fungi Fusarium oxysporum dominated in the rhizosphere complexes of all studied varieties of vegetable beans, and the spe-cies A. fabaе, C. herbarum, and U. botrytis were present only in the rank of random species in my-cocomplexes under some varieties.

The article presents the results of studying the genotypes of peas by a complex of breeding valua-ble traits. The research was carried out in 2014-2021 in accordance with the methodological guidelines of the VIR and the State Commission for Variety Testing of Agricultural Crops. The objects of study are 59 collectible varieties of peas of various morphotypes, the standard is the Krasnoufimsky 93 variety (Sverdlovsk region). The aim of the work was to isolate the genetic sources of peas by a set of traits for further use in the breeding process. The weather conditions during the study period were contrasting, which allowed the most objective assessment of the studied samples. Grain yields ranged from 126 g/m2 (2021 g) to 468 g/m2 (2014 g). As a result of the study, varietal samples were determined that significantly exceeded the standard for grain yield. The highest yield on average for 2014-2021 was obtained from samples Tigra (Germany) – 437 g/m2, Stabil (Austria) – 376 g/m2, Grana (USA) – 353 g/m2, G-21594 (Kirov region) – 340 g/m2, G-24596 – 331 g/m2, etc. Genotypes with high indicators of productivity elements were identified. The maximum value of the number of productive nodes was noted in the Serio variety (USA) – 4.6 pcs., the number of beans – in G-21594 (7.5 pcs.), the number of grains – in the Verkholuzskaya variety (Komi Republic, 32.2 pcs.), productivity – in the Stabil variety (6.6 g). Most of the studied genotypes (78%) had a mass of 1000 seeds 150-250 g. The largest seeds were characterized by sample No. 40 (Bulgaria, weight of 1000 seeds 340 g). It was found that the grain yield, the number of productive nodes, beans and grains per plant differed the most in the studied cultivars, the mass of 1000 seeds varied slightly.

The aim of the work was to conduct a comparative assessment of the quality of grilled cheese (halloumi) obtained from the milk of two different breeds of cows. Cheese was prepared accord-ing to the Cypriot halloumi technology, but instead of sheep or goat milk, cattle milk was used. The milk of the red-mottled breed cows differed from the Simmental milk with a higher content of skimmed milk residue, protein, fat and somatic cells. Grilled cheese using hallumi technology from the milk of both breeds of cows meets the requirements of the state standard R 52686-2006 and is bold (according to the Simmental breed) or fat (according to the red-mottled). Grilled cheese using hallumi technology from red-mottled milk has a 7.2% higher yield, 8.1% less mois-ture, is more saturated with lactic acid, but 1.3 times less dense than cheese from Simmental milk. Grilled cheese according to hallumi technology from milk of both breeds of cows is suitable for frying within 6 days from the moment of manufacture.

The purpose of the study is to analyze the sanitary condition of tree and shrub vegetation on the territory of school No. 19 in the city of Yoshkar-Ola. This work is relevant, since the school is a place for long-term stay of children of school and preschool age and the natural environment is an integral part of their educational activities. To determine the assessment of the state of the stand, the coefficients of the state of plants are calculated: the states of individual trees are determined by the external signs of a 5-point scale. Next, the coefficients of the state of the tree species are calculated according to the corresponding formula. The coefficients of the state of the stand as a whole are also found as the arithmetic mean of the coefficients of the state of individual tree spe-cies. As a result, an assessment of the state of the stand according to this gradation was deter-mined. Woody plants growing on the territory of secondary school No. 19 in Yoshkar-Ola were examined. A total of 35 species of coniferous and deciduous plants have been identified. Most species are characterized by a weakened state. Plants of hawthorn-blood-red, poplar × 'Soviet Py-ramidal', prickly plum and mountain ash are the most weakened. The condition of the plantings as a whole is assessed as weakened. It is recommended to carry out agrotechnical measures for plants and cleaning of dead specimens.

In modern food products, food additives of natural origin are increasingly used. The search for ef-fective antioxidants of plant origin is a widely studied topic at the present time. The study of this issue makes it possible to introduce the latest solutions in the fight against lipid oxidation in food products. The aim of this scientific work was to evaluate the radical-binding capacity of plant ex-tracts with different contents of active substances. As a result of a series of experiments using the DPPH method, the antioxidant properties of 14 samples were investigated. It was found that the greatest antioxidant activity among the tested extracts is possessed by extracts of green tea, apple, grape seed, sorghum. The rest of the samples are moderately active.

The article is devoted to the study of the effect of biofertilizers on the number of different groups of soil microarthropods of chernozem of ordinary agrocenosis of perennial grasses in the condi-tions of the Lower Don. Most groups of mites and collembolus on the agrocenosis of perennial grasses, being saprophages by the nature of nutrition, undoubtedly play an important role in the circulation of substances, indirectly affecting the productivity of the agrocenosis. It was found that when applying the biofertilizer "Vesna", the number of all groups of microarthropods at the exper-imental site exceeded the control indicators by 1.5 times. All groups of ticks showed a large num-ber, gamase and shell ticks prevailed. The number of leg-tails was less than the number of ticks in the experimental area, but it turned out to be higher than the number of leg-tails in the control ar-ea. The vertical distribution of microarthropods in the horizon of 0-20 cm of the chernozem of the ordinary agrocenosis of perennial grasses was characterized by an uneven distribution: basically all groups of ticks and longtails are concentrated in the horizon of 0-10 cm, which is determined by the gradient of hydrothermal conditions and the distribution of root systems of plants of agro-cenosis.

The aim of the study is to identify differences in the morphological parameters of spring wheat of the Darya variety, 3 reproductions in modern soil and climatic conditions of the northwestern part of the Central Chernozem region in the introduction of chicken manure at a dose of 30 kg/ha and semi-ripened cattle manure also at a dose of 30 kg/ha on leached medium loamy chernozem, char-acteristic of the northwestern part of the CDR. Differences in the morphological properties of spring wheat were revealed when applying an equal dose of fertilizers in a small-scale experiment with fertilizers. More developed plants were identified in the experiment with chicken manure, which indicates a more complex effect of chicken manure in the soil and climatic conditions of the north-west of the Central Chernozem region.

New data on the process of germination of dill seeds of the first and second orders after short-term heat stress (40 ° C) have been obtained. Seed germination was carried out in a thermostat. Swollen seeds (four repetitions of 100 seeds) were exposed to a temperature of 40 ° C in accordance with the scheme of the experiment: 0 (control); 1; 2; 3; 4 and 5 days. After incubation, the seeds were transferred to standard (t = 20 ° C) conditions and germinated in Petri dishes on filter paper with-out access to light for 21 days. Methods of analysis of seed germination in dynamics are used. Log-logistic regression with three parameters was used to construct the seed germination curve: b, d, e. All statistical analyses were performed in R version 3.4.3. The duration of the action of high temperature, which has an inhibitory effect on the germination rate and the number of germinated seeds, was revealed. Seeds of the first order in the control and after incubation for 1-3 days germi-nated in a similar way, and with an increase in the incubation period to 4-5 days, the rate of ger-mination decreased sharply. The seeds of the second order were even less resistant to the action of a short high-temperature stressor, and when the seeds were incubated for 3 days and then trans-ferred to standard temperature conditions, germination did not occur. The germination time of 50% of seeds (T50) of the first order as a result of a sequential increase in the incubation period at 40 ° C increased from 0.92 ± 0.11 to 6.4 ± 0.49 (p<0.001) days, respectively. Seeds of the second order during incubation for 1-2 days also germinated significantly slower compared to the control, and in the future germination did not occur. The curves of changes in the index of maximum seed germination, especially for the second order of branching, had a sharp bend when the critical dose of the temperature factor was exceeded. After that, there was a sharp decrease in the speed of seed germination up to a complete stop. The maximum incubation time (at 40 ° C), after which germi-nation is possible under standard temperature conditions, was 3.69 ± 0.06 days for the first order, and 2.00 ± 0.19 days for the second order. The difference was significant at the significance level of p<0.001.
