Коммерциализация результатов научно-технической деятельности в Республике Узбекистан

Коммерциализация результатов научных исследований и разработок выступает необходимым условием стратегического развития любой страны, поскольку обеспечивает создание новинок, совершенствование технологии их изготовления с последующим внедрением и эффективной реализацией на внутреннем и зарубежных рынках. В рамках работы были рассмотрены теоретические основы коммерциализация результатов научно-технической деятельности, проведен анализ коммерциализации разработок в Республике Узбекистан, выявлены особенности организации данного процесса и даны рекомендации по его совершенствованию.The commercialization of research and development results is a prerequisite for the strategic development of any country, since it ensures the creation of new products, improvement of their manufacturing technology with subsequent implementation and effective implementation in the domestic and foreign markets. In the framework of the work, the theoretical foundations of the commercialization of the results of scientific and technical activities were considered, an analysis of the commercialization of developments in the Republic of Uzbekistan was carried out, the features of the organization of this process were identified and recommendations for its improvement were given

35 million-year-old solid-wood-borer beetle larvae support the idea of stressed Eocene amber forests

Eocene amber is an important window into the past about 35 million years ago. The large quantities of resin produced by this forest of the past, resulting in amber, triggered the idea of a forest under stress. Recent findings of higher abundances of hoverfly larvae in Eocene amber, in the modern fauna often associated with wood-borer larvae, provided a hint that wood-borer larvae may have contributed to this stress. Yet, so far only few such larvae have been reported. We have compiled a dozen additional wood-borer larvae in amber, including a giant one of at least 35 mm length in Rovno amber. Heavily damaged fossils furthermore indicate that larger larvae of this type were prone to oxidation and that, at least some, enigmatic tube-like tunnels in larger amber pieces may represent remains of large wood-borer larvae. This find strongly indicates that wood-borer larvae were not rare, but common in the Eocene amber forest, which is compatible with the high abundances of hoverfly larvae and further supports the idea of a forest under stress. Whether the possible higher abundances of wood-borer larvae were the cause of the stress or a symptom of an already stressed forest remains so far unclear

Temporal variations of vegetative features, sex ratios and reproductive phenology in a Dictyota dichotoma (Dictyotales, Phaeophyceae) population of Argentina

This paper addresses the phenology of a Dictyota dichotoma population from the North Patagonian coasts of Argentina. The morphology of the individuals was characterized, and analyses of the temporal variations of vegetative features, diploid and haploid life cycle generations and sex ratios are provided. Individuals, represented by growing sporophytes and gametophytes, occurred simultaneously throughout the year. Morphological variables showed temporal variation, except the width and height of medullary cells, which did not vary between seasons. All vegetative variables were significantly correlated with daylength. Besides, frond length, frond dry mass and apical and basal branching angles were significantly correlated with seawater temperatures. Vegetative thalli were less abundant than haploid and diploid thalli. Sporophytes were less abundant than male and female gametophytes. Male gametophytes dominated in May, August, October and January, and female gametophytes were more abundant in September, November, December, February and March. The formation of female gametangia showed a significant correlation with daylength, and the highest number of gametangia was registered in spring. In general, the male/female sex ratio varied between 1:2 and 1:1. Apical regions were more fertile than basal regions. Our data about frequency in the formation of reproductive structures and male/female ratios are the first recorded in the Dictyota genus and thus could not be compared with populations from other regions of the world. Significant morphological variation was observed in thalli of both life cycle generations, regarding length and dry mass, number of primary branches and branching basal angle. In general, all variables analyzed varied seasonally except cortical cell width.Fil: Gauna, Maria Cecilia. Universidad Nacional del Sur. Departamento de Biología, Bioquímica y Farmacia.
