The trend for development and spreading of diseases and pests of blackcurrant at Orel region in the conditions of extreme drought in 2010 has been detected. Abnormal weather conditions of the summer and the lack of precipitation limited both growth of host plant and disease spreading. At the background of extreme conditions of 2010 the crop phenophases shifted to earlier dates. The awakening of wintering pathogen structures began in the classic dates of the spring, although in summer their biological cycle went off rapidly. Due to the lack of moisture the disease pathogens failed to fully realize their potential of development and spreading. A favorable aspect of the extreme conditions of vegetation period, the reducing of the protective measures against diseases, is to be admitted. Abnormal weather conditions accelerated the pathogen biological cycles and reduced the stock of wintering infection; meanwhile they provoked colonization of the plants by pests. In extremely high air temperature and lasting lack of precipitation the pests number was intensively increasing, exceeding the maliciousness threshold. Due to the above some additional insecticide and acaricide treatments of berry crops were applied. Thus, the vegetation period of 2010 was described as most favorable for the development and spreading of pests and less favorable for disease pathogens.

Цель. Провести комплексную агробиологическую оценку гибридов капусты брокколи Brassica oleracea L. convar. botrytis (L.) Alef. var. сymosa Duch. по основным хозяйственно-ценным показателям в условиях Западной Лесостепи Украины.Методы. Объектом исследования были гибриды капусты брокколи иностранной селекции: ‘Lucky F1’ (контроль), ‘Batavia F1’, ‘Belstar F1’, ‘Monaco F1’ и ‘Rumba F1’. Фенологические наблюдения, биометрические измерения и учеты проводили в соответствии с Методикой исследовательской дела в овощеводстве и бахчеводства (2001). Результаты. В среднем за годы исследований наивысшую товарную урожайность головок формировали гибриды ‘Monaco F1’ (41,2 т/га) и ‘Rumba F1’ (38,0 т/га). Нес­колько ниже она была в ‘Belstar F1’ и ‘Batavia F1’ – 32,3 и 29,6 т/га соответственно. В общем же все исследуемые гибриды обеспечили существенный прирост урожайнос­ти (6,3–17,9 т/га) по сравнению с контрольным вариантом (‘Lucky F1’ – 23,3 т/га). Наибольший диаметр центральной головки зафиксирован у гибридов ‘Rumba F1’ и ‘Monaco F1’ – 19,7 и 20,5 см, наименьший у ‘Lucky F1’ – 14,3 см. Масса центральной головки у всех гибридов была значительно выше показателя контроля (295 г): ‘Batavia F1’ – 451 г, ‘Belstar F1’ – 477, ‘Rumba F1’ – 514, ‘Monaco F1’ – 542 г. Масса боковых головок в зависимости от гибрида колебалась от 328 г (‘Lucky F1’) до 807 г (‘Monaco F1’). Самые высокие биохимические показатели товарной продукции обеспечили гибриды ‘Rumba F1’ и ‘Monaco F1’: содержание общего сухого вещества составило 11,3 и 11,6%, растворимых сухих веществ – 6,4 и 6,7%, сахаров – 3,5 и 3,8% и витамина С – 89,3 и 98,7 мг/100 г соответственно. Выводы. В условиях Западной Лесостепи Украины рекомендуется выращивать новые гибриды капусты брокколи иностранной селекции ‘Rumba F1’ и ‘Monaco F1’, которые обеспечивают формирование высоких показателей как урожайности, так и качества товарной продукции. По результатам агробиологической оценки предложено типичную модель сорта капусты брокколи, которая может служить проектом для разработки соответствующих бланков показателей пригодности сортов Brassica oleracea L. convar. botrytis (L.) Alef. var. сymosa Duch. для распространения на территории Украины. | Purpose. To conduct a comprehensive agrobiological assessment of broccoli hybrids Brassica oleracea L. convar. botrytis (L.) Alef. var. сymosa Duch. in terms of the key agronomic traits under the conditions of the Western Forest-Steppe of Ukraine.Methods. The object of the study was the following foreign broccoli hybrids: ‘Lucky F1’ (reference), ‘Batavia F1’, ‘Belstar F1’, ‘Monaco F1’, and ‘Rumba F1’. Phenological observations, biometric measurements, and records were conducted in accordance with the Methodology of Experiments in Vegetable and Melons (2001).Results. On ave­rage over the years of research, the highest yield was obtained from hybrids ‘Monaco F1’ (41.2 t/ha) and ‘Rumba F1’ (38.0 t/ha). A slightly lower yield was in ‘Belstar F1’ (32.3 t/ha) and ‘Batavia F1’ (29.6 t/ha). In general, all hybrids under investigation provided a significant yield increase (6.3–17.9 t/ha) compared to reference ‘Lucky F1’ (23.3 t/ha). The largest diameter of the main head was recorded in the hybrids ‘Rumba F1’ (19.7 cm), ‘Monaco F1’ (20.5 cm) and the smallest in ‘Lucky F1’ (14.3 cm). The weight of the main head of all hybrids was significantly higher than that of reference (295 g): ‘Batavia F1’ 451 g, ‘Belstar F1’ 477 g, ‘Rumba F1’ 514 g, and ‘Monaco F1’ 542 g. The weight of the side heads of the broccoli ranged from 328 g (‘Lucky F1’) to 807 g (‘Monaco F1’). The highest biochemical indicators of commodity product were provided by hybrids ‘Rumba F1’ and ‘Monaco F1’: the total dry matter content was 11.3 and 11.6%, soluble solids 6.4 and 6.7%, sugars 3.5 and 3.8%, and vitamin C 89.3 and 98.7 mg/100 g, respectively.Conclusions. Under the conditions of the Western Forest-Steppe of Ukraine, it is recommended to grow new foreign broccoli hybrids ‘Rumba F1’ and ‘Monaco F1’, which ensure high yield and quali­ty of commodity product. According to the results of the agrobiological assessment, a typical model of broccoli variety is proposed, which may serve as a project for the development of the evaluation form for ability indicators of Brassica oleracea L. convar. botrytis (L.) Alef. var. сymosa Duch. for distribution inUkraine. | Мета. Провести комплексне агробіологічне оцінювання гібридів капусти броколі Brassica oleracea L. convar. botrytis (L.)
