Prominent Tajik Figures of the Twentieth Century
377
•
Search for the varieties, types and select lines of crop plants which are
prospects for growing in mountainous conditions
•
Investigation of scientific approaches in the regulation of harmful
invertebrates through the use of their natural enemies. Protection of the
animal kingdom of the Pamirs, and elaboration of the methods of
optimization for natural ecosystems;
•
Creation and study of crop plants and their gene-fund in the Pamirs. Seed
growing and technology of growing new types and lines of crop plants in the
Pamirs;
•
Introduction and acclimatization of plants in the conditions of high
mountains. Protection of the vegetable kingdom in the high mountains and
measures for reconstruction of the ecosystems that have been destroyed by
mankind.
The major scientific results of the Institute have been:
•
the parameters of UV-radiation influence on the growth, morphogenesis and
mesostructure of leaves and some physiological processes (i.e. total
combination of adaptive reactions in connection with the influence of UV-
radiation on the growth, productivity and hormones of the plants) were
determined;
•
the stock of medicinal materials of plant origin in Western Pamir was
determined and studied for the first time. The chemical composition of
biologically active substances was revealed ;
•
taking stock of the fruit plants in Western Pamir has been completed. There
are promising varieties of fruit plants which do not need additional selection:
10 varieties of apricot, 11 - apples, 4 - pears, 3 - peaches, 2 - walnuts, and so
on;
•
new data on insects have been collected, regularities of formation and
dissemination of insects through the high mountainous ecosystems of the
Pamir were established. Altitude distribution of specific contents of insects
was determined;
•
technologies for growing certain fodder and medicinal plants were
established;
•
they continue to work on the technology of growing vegetable plants in
green-houses by applying the heat of geothermal water and polymeric light-
filters;
•
new varieties of peas "Shaftal," "Safedak," and triticale "Badakhshan" were
bred. Potato "Polet" and alfalfa "Blavez" (foreign selection) varieties were
bred and recommended for industrial introduction in the Pamirs;
•
every year, they supply the agricultural institutions of Pamir with dozens of
tons of elite seeds of wheat, barley, rye, horse legumes and potato, which
were bred on the basis of the best high-productive varieties of crop plants;
they also prepared 10-12 thousand standard seedlings for the foundation of
new gardens in the Western Pamirs.
