Parasitoid complex (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) of the leaf-mining fly Chromatomyia horticola (Goureau) (Diptera: Agromyzidae) in Russia

Yefremova Z, Strakhova I, Kravchenko V, von Tschirnhaus M, Yegorenkova E. Parasitoid complex (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) of the leaf-mining fly Chromatomyia horticola (Goureau) (Diptera: Agromyzidae) in Russia. PHYTOPARASITICA. 2015;43(1):125-134.Sixteen species of Eulophidae were reared from Chromatomyia horticola (Goureau) collected from 14 host plants in the Middle Volga Basin (Russia). Chrysocharis viridis (Nees), Closterocerus trifasciatus Westwood, Diglyphus pusztensis (Erdos), Minotetrastichus frontalis (Nees), Neochrysocharis aratus (Walker), Pediobius cassidae Erdos, and Pnigalio pectinicornis (Linnaeus) are new host records. Two parasitic species, D. isaea (Walker) and P. metallicus (Nees), were dominant. The pre-imaginal stages of both dominant (ecto- and endoparasitoid) species are illustrated. The sex ratio between the ecto- and endoparasitoids differed. In June/July, there were about threefold more females in ectoparasitoids than in endoparasitoids. These differences in sex ratio were not related to the plant species only. The endoparasitoid species were found on all species of host plants of C. horticola, whereas the ectoparasitoid species were restricted to about half the plant species. Diglyphus isaea and Pediobius metallicus are very important regulating species against leaf miner pests such as C. horticola

The aim of the investigation is to show long-felt need of formation of proof motivation to physical culture and skills of a healthy way of life among university students, whose specialties are not connected with the sports. Methods. The methods involve survey and questionnaire as a part of sociological research (such methods were used to find out what place occupies health in the system of modern students’ values, and what are be the basic motives of a healthy way of life of student’s youth). The standard computer statistical analysis was applied to processing of research results. Scientific novelty and results. Modern interpretation of the term «physical training» is given. Authors of the present study maintain and prove the fact that not only simply applied aspect of the formation, helping to achieve quality health of the person and to get the competence of professional sports, but also a science concerning the ways and technologies of achievement of harmony of the personal development, provide successful preparation for work on the chosen specialty. Data of sociological research shows stereotypic representations of students on physical training as a way of improvement of muscles work and increase its weight. The research show total imperception of the fact that muscles activity is reflected in emotionally-shaped thinking; successful mastering of modern scientific knowledge, active ability to live, successful implementation of personal and professional plans are impossible without such activities. Low valeological competence of parents, school teachers, tutors and teachers of higher schools is revealed as the main reason of an absence of students’ organisation skills of a healthy way of life, and upkeeping the state of health. Practical significance. Research materials justify that the system of mass physical training requires conceptual reforming; it is required to include reconsideration of a place and role of the so-named discipline in the higher school Цель статьи – показать назревшую необходимость формирования у студентов вузов, чьи специальности не связаны со спортом, стойкой мотивации занятиями физкультурой и навыков здорового образа жизни. Методы. Для выяснения, какое место занимает здоровье в системе ценностей современных студентов и каковы могут быть основные мотивы здорового образа жизни студенческой молодежи, авторами было проведено социологическое исследование, в ходе которого использовались опрос и анкетирование. Для обработки результатов исследования применялся стандартный компьютерный статистический анализ. Научная новизна и результаты. Дано современное толкование термина «физическая культура». Авторы настаивают и доказывают, что это не просто прикладной аспект образования, помогающий добиться высокого качества здоровья человека и приобрести компетенции в профессиональном спорте, но и наука о способах и технологиях достижения гармонии личностного развития, обеспечивающих успешную подготовку к работе по выбранной специальности. Данные социологического исследования демонстрируют стереотипные представления студентов о физической культуре как способе улучшения работы мышц и увеличении их массы и полное отсутствие понимания, что деятельность мышц отражается на эмоционально-образном мышлении, без которого невозможно успешное усвоение современных научных знаний, активная жизнедеятельность, успешное претворение в жизнь личных и профессиональных планов. Выявлена главная причина недостатка умений и навыков у студентов в организации здорового образа жизни, поддержании в порядке своего самочувствия – низкая валеологическая грамотность родителей, школьных педагогов, воспитателей и преподавателей вузов. Практическая значимость. Материалы исследования в очередной раз подтверждают, что система массовой физической культуры нуждается в концептуальном реформировании, требуется в том числе и пересмотр места и роли одноименной дисциплины в высшей школе

The imagery of spiritual concepts in teaching process expressed by Phraseological units of the English, Tatar and Turkish languages

© 2017 Serials Publications.Phraseological units in all languages are correlated with background knowledge of their speakers, peculiar way of life and ethnic features in general. This research focuses on the comparative analysis of phraseological units and their usage in the teaching process in genetically and structurally unrelated linguocultures (Tatar, English and Turkish). It has been conducted at the intersection of anthropocentric, linguo-cognitive, communicative-functional and structural-semantic paradigms, and is based on the prominent analysis of ethnocultural data from all respective languages. The linguistic worldview, as well as phraseological units, of the English, Turkish and Tatar languages express many spiritual notions. A soul is described as an inner topos, i.e. a person's inner world. In the latest decades linguists have been building their research around cognitive and, particularly, conceptological topics. As a result, they have touched upon such fundamental problems as the structural representation of knowledge and ways of its conceptualization in the language. This research dwells upon the content and sphere of language objectification of different nationalities. Furthermore, it stresses out specific ways of expressing spiritual concepts in phraseological worldviews of the above-mentioned ethnic groups. The paper analyses the phraseological data which belong to different language groups (Turkic and Germanic) and Turkic subgroups (Tatar and Turkish). Therefore, scientists have got valuable results on the typological level. The general characteristics of a linguistic identity and its components revealed and systematized in this research, namely linguocultural units, principles of their classification and comparison, are of great importance for further scientific endeavors in this field. The comparative analysis of spiritual concepts and their usage in teaching process are expressed in phraseological units is conducted in accordance with the linguocultural approach

Vitamin and mineral status in highly skilled ice hockey players during the competition period

Objective: the evaluation of the micronutrient content in highly skilled hockey players during the competition period to reveal the influence of physical loads on the vitamin-mineral saturation of human organism. Materials and methods: contents of some micronutrients, cortisol and testosterone were analyzed in the blood samples of 33 sportsmen of continental league hockey team (average 26,4±0,8 years) during the competition period. Results: a high level of cortisol and a high anabolism index was revealed during the entire competitive period. The content of macroelements in the blood of the hockey players corresponded to the reference values, but the concentration of cuprum and chromium was reduced. Low values of the vitamins B2 and E were also detected in the blood of the athletes. Conclusion: the sportsmen became overtrained during the competition period. The high saturation of micronutrients corresponding to the physical loads was not observed; instead, a pronounced deficiency of some micronutrients was revealed. The physical loads in overtrained sportsmen caused a decrease of the micronutrient content in the sportsmen’s organisms. Therefore, sportsmen need the optimization of nutrition by the use of natural food products rich in micronutrients. The intake of biologically active supplements (chosen individually) should be a secondary measure only

Improved Electrochemical Analysis of Neuropathy Target Esterase Activity by a Tyrosinase Carbon Paste Electrode Modified by 1-Methoxyphenazine Methosulfate

A graphite-paste tyrosinase biosensor was improved by adding 1-methoxyphenazine methosulfate as a mediator. Mediator modification enhanced sensitivity to phenol 4-fold and long-term stability 3-fold. Phenol could be detected at 25 n M (S/N=2) using an Ag/AgCl reference electrode. The biosensor was used to measure the activity of a toxicologically significant enzyme, neuropathy target esterase (NTE), which yields phenol by hydrolysis of the substrate, phenyl valerate. Using the new biosensor, blood and brain NTE inhibition by organophosphorus (OP) compounds with different neuropathic potencies were well correlated ( r =0.990, n =7), supporting the use of blood NTE as a biochemical marker of exposure to neuropathic OP compounds.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/42368/1/10529_2005_Article_0020.pd
