'CRM 53' (After EMS Treatment - 0.66%) Consistently Yielded Double That of the Parent (1.25 T/Ha for Parent)
treatment - 0.001 M), and 'CRM 53' (after EMS treatment - 0.66%) consistently yielded double that of the parent (1.25 t/ha for parent). Further, in the trials conducted at the Zonal Agricultural Research Station of Indira Gandhi Krishi Viswa Vidyalaya, Jagdalpur, the CRM mutants performed well on both the yield and the disease scores. Based on the performance of these mutants, the Government of Assam is proposing the release of three mutants namely, CRM 49, 51 and 53 and wishes to replace the parent cultivar IR 50 with these high yielding and blast tolerant mutants.

ROW, Central Rice Research Institute, Cuttack-753 006, Orissa, Email: [email protected]; ^Directorate of Rice Research, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad-500030, India) XA0054539 RESULTS AND PROSPECTS OF THE USE OF MUTANTS IN SUNFLOWER BREEDING Modern agriculture requires a significant yield increase of farm crops. In the case of sunflower, this problem may be solved by developing varieties and hybrids with new plant architecture, tolerant to high density conditions. Some mutants were developed to solve this problem by long-term breeding through chemical mutagenesis (1980-1995). Among them were mutants M-2006, M-2007, M-2008, which are characterized by a short leaf petiole, ranging from 1.3 to 5.8 cm, and with increased tolerance to high plant density (80-150 thousand plants/hectare). In the mutant M-1991 the petiole is absent completely. Super-early, cold tolerant, sunflower mutants (M-1700, M-1925, M-1927) which are resistant to high density growing conditions (100-120 thousand plants/hectare) and with a vegetation period of 45-75 days are of great interest for northern regions throughout the world. -

Governance on Russia's Early-Modern Frontier
ABSOLUTISM AND EMPIRE: GOVERNANCE ON RUSSIA’S EARLY-MODERN FRONTIER DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Matthew Paul Romaniello, B. A., M. A. The Ohio State University 2003 Examination Committee: Approved by Dr. Eve Levin, Advisor Dr. Geoffrey Parker Advisor Dr. David Hoffmann Department of History Dr. Nicholas Breyfogle ABSTRACT The conquest of the Khanate of Kazan’ was a pivotal event in the development of Muscovy. Moscow gained possession over a previously independent political entity with a multiethnic and multiconfessional populace. The Muscovite political system adapted to the unique circumstances of its expanding frontier and prepared for the continuing expansion to its east through Siberia and to the south down to the Caspian port city of Astrakhan. Muscovy’s government attempted to incorporate quickly its new land and peoples within the preexisting structures of the state. Though Muscovy had been multiethnic from its origins, the Middle Volga Region introduced a sizeable Muslim population for the first time, an event of great import following the Muslim conquest of Constantinople in the previous century. Kazan’s social composition paralleled Moscow’s; the city and its environs contained elites, peasants, and slaves. While the Muslim elite quickly converted to Russian Orthodoxy to preserve their social status, much of the local population did not, leaving Moscow’s frontier populated with animists and Muslims, who had stronger cultural connections to their nomadic neighbors than their Orthodox rulers. The state had two major goals for the Middle Volga Region. -
