The  green pea collection  consisting  of 277 samples  varied in geographical  distance,  quantity, and quality traits was evaluated. The samples  with agronomic valuable traits were selected.  The starch  grains in selected  green pea samples were studied. The molecular analysis of these samples was conducted. The selected samples were used for the reciprocal crossing.  The pattern inheritance  of hybrids F1 was studied.

The characteristics of adaptability of 24 pea varieties to justify the use of the assortment in the technology of conveyor cultivation of raw green peas for freezing in conditions of the south-west of the CCZ is presented.

The advantage of the wide-band and stripped scheme of sowing of the early-ripening tomato cultivar Lyana in non-seedling culture is shown.

The method  of development  of functionally sterile forms of tomato from hybrids derived from crossing between functionally sterile and fertile lines is described. The characteristic  of two new lines on the main morphological; biological and economically useful traits and combining ability for yield and fruit weight are shown.

The analysis of the modern homeland assortment of vegetable crops is given. The donors of the most important traits and the accessions  of vegetable and melon crops perspective for breeding from the VIR collection are shown. The short characteristic of the varieties is given.

Potatoes are high-plastic plants that can be grown in almost all climates. In the Lower Volga, in the conditions of strong spring drought, high temperatures and soil throughout the growing season, lack of rainfall, potatoes can be grown only for irrigation. To obtain high and stable yields in these difficult conditions it is necessary to research varieties and its adaptation.

The key note of this article is reasonability of agricultural consulting complex creation. The analysis of agricultural consulting complex potential effect for the agricultural enterprises is carried out. The main idea is production quality growth because of the local process science explanation and support.

The problems of study and utilization of plant germplasm collections and arrangement of genetic resources based on botanical, functional, morphological, biochemical, and genetical principles are underlined in the article. The types of identified and systemized germplasm collections and genetic resources of flowering plants are described. The search path and methods of identification, differentiation, arrangement, and selection of genetic donors and germplasm collections of traits of ontogenetic and phylogenetic adaptation are shown in the article.

September 5-7, 2012 in the arcade of Moscow there was the second exhibition devoted to floriculture Russia «Expo Flora Russia».

The review deals with the phenomenon of fasciation and its types, as well as factors that contribute to its occurrence.
