Abstract: Water scarcity and climate change are two of the biggest worldwide concerns.  A complicated and sometimes underappreciated occurrence, drought has an impact on many facets of human existence.  Early drought forecasts are therefore essential for water resource management and strategic planning.  In order to improve the accuracy of drought prediction, this work presents a unique...

Abstract: Rice blast, caused by Pyricularia oryzae, is one of the most damaging fungal diseases affecting rice production worldwide, with major implications for food security and agroecosystem stability. Chemical control, particularly the use of tricyclazole, has been widely adopted in many rice-growing regions due to its specific action on the pathogen’s melanin biosynthesis pathway. This review...

Abstract: This study investigates the adaptation strategies, reproductive potential, and bioecological characteristics of four higher aquatic plant species - Pistia stratiotes, Azolla caroliniana, Eichhornia crassipes, and Nelumbo nucifera - under the arid and saline environmental conditions of Karakalpakstan. These species were selected for their ecological significance and potential applications in environmental management. Field observations and controlled experiments were... More

Abstract: The study of the Brassicaceae family holds particular relevance in the modern era, especially in the context of ecosystem conservation. The ecological plasticity of the species within this family allows them to be regarded as resilient plants under conditions of global warming. Research on this family is also of great importance for agriculture and food security.... More

Abstract: This study examines the current radioecological condition of the former uranium production site in the village of Min-Kush, Kyrgyzstan, which was one of the largest uranium mining centers in the Soviet Union. From 1946 to 1970, Kyrgyzstan served as the primary uranium-producing republic of the USSR, leaving behind a vast legacy of radioactive waste. Inefficient... More

Abstract: The flora of Kyrgyzstan includes about 4000 species of higher plants, more than half of which have medicinal properties to some extent. The current status of 23 species of medicinal plants in Kyrgyzstan has been studied, and their resource potential can be successfully used as a reliable source of raw materials for the pharmaceutical industry. The... More
