Our botanical survey at the great pasture of Hajdúbagos is a part of a broad research that aims to predict the production of the grass at the given area. As the mentioned pasture is a nature conservation area and its management requires grazing as an important management tool, the prediction of the potential grass yield is essential for determining the optimal number of the grazing animal stock and grazing method, thus the most suitable management strategy. A computer model will act as the basis of prediction as the potential grass production gets easily calculable with it. To create the mentioned computer model, data considering the botanical structure and realized grass production of the pasture, as well as the changing climatic factors are required. To collect the necessary botanical data we accomplished the botanical survey with traditional phytocoenological methods in 2006. In this article we present the results of our survey.

During the last decades the bioactive magnetofluid nanocomposites proved both their unique performances and their high potential
Everywhere nanotechnologies gain ground being economic systems having a controlled period of the induced effect, of the planed biodegradation and of the used quantities.
Nanotechnologies are applied in biology. They are of beneficed effects in plant and animal protection.
The bioactive magnetofluid nanocomposites used for plants are applied in the vegetation phase by means of spraying.
The nanocomposites are also elements of the culture media for the inducing of the calus and the regeneration of plants belonging to the species Chrysanthemum, Lilium regale, Mamillaria, Triticale and Solanum tuberosum L. TiO2 nanocrystals are used for the sterilization of the spaces where cereals are kept and for destroying the fungi from the seeds.
The goal of the experiments was to test the reaction of different types of explants when cultivated in vitro on media supplemented with bioactive magnetofluid nanocomposites.

By means of the in situ conservation the vegetal material is exposed to genetic modifications as a consequence of the natural or artificial selecting. The ex situ conservation, by the use of traditional techniques,  allows the keeping of seeds, plants or different  plant organs elsewhere than in their originating places for a long period of time and in good conditions. The ex situ conservation may be in gene banks, in botanical gardens or in sanctuaries. The costs for such conservation are very high and it also runs the risk of losing the material because of pests, diseases or the unfavorable climatic conditions. The in vitro conservation eliminates all these disadvantages allowing the conservation of the vegetal material for a very long period of time. On the other hand by using this method the rapid multiplication of the stored material is possible.
The in vitro conservation techniques can facilitate the application of some genetic handling procedures such as the putting at the disposal of a simple way to stock the experimental material in the form of in vitro cultures. The new conservation techniques give a new impetus to all in vitro culture conservation methods.
The inoculums cultivated on aseptic media can be preserved in a certain morpho – physiological stage and their regenerative activity can start anew by using variety of types of techniques such as

  1. frost conservation (The frosting or the keeping of the inoculums at positive or low temperatures), cryopreservation;
  2. the conservation in conditions of  inoculums slow growth;
  3. the inoculums dehydration ( up to the surviving limit);
  4. the growths of the inoculums at low air pressure or in hypoxia;

The goal of the present study is to find out appropriate conservation methods of the performing genotypes at different culture species.

Vegetation aspects in the Lăpuş Valey vegetation. The Lăpuş Valey belong the Maramureş county. It’s situated in North of Transilvania and his territory covers few geomorphological units like: Rodna Mountains, the Maramureş Mountains, the Gutâi Mountains. The longest river wich crossed the county is Lăpuş. The climat is formed under the influence of dominantly western and north-western atmospheric flow and sheltered by the nerby mountains. The Lăpuş Mountins far from having impressing heights, are very fragmentated, with deep valleys and steep slopes, the river Lăpuş forming true quays. Near the Lăpuş Valey the peaks are covered with forest consist in special in beech forests with a few oak trees and small meadows of Nardus stricta and Agrostis stolonifera.  Near the river they are also low forest edificated by Salix alba and Alnus glutinosa.

The water tests were made in every season at the Crişul Alb River during 3 years of study. The tests were analyzed in the lab in order to determine 3 faecal gene pollution indicators: total coliform bacteria, faecal coliforms and faecal enterococcus. The tests were made in 10 drawing points, located upstream and downstream in the following cities: Brad, Gurahonţ, Buteni, Ineu, Chişineu Criş.
Based on the recorded values, the hygienic and sanitary quality estate of the water has been possible. The main faecal gene pollution sources were found and identified. The nature of this faecal gene pollution was also found and identified based on a report between the faecal coliforms and the faecal enterococcus.
The study made on the Crişul Alb River assured during those 3 years a monitoring of the sanitary quality from the water and the establishment of eventual pollution sources. I hope that the obtained data will catch the attention of the local authorities, economic agents and citizens on the aspects related to the water pollution from the Crişul Alb River. I also hope that this will help them to take measures in order to limit the pollution sources and to use the water with more efficiency.

The sediment tests from the Bega canal were quantitatively and enzymologicaly studied. The following enzymological activities were determined: actual and potential dehydrogenase, catalase, urease and the reductive capacity of the FeIII. The sediment test was made in every season, during the year of 2006 in 4 drawing point levels Ghiroda, Uzina de apă downstream, Iosefin and Timişoara downstream. The studied enzymatic activities were taken under the form of complete values. Based on this the enzymatic indicator of the sediments` quality was determined (EISQ).
This indicator has seasonal variations and it depends on the drawing points of the tests. The recorded values for the studied enzymatic activities are very different, because of the existence in the drawing point of a certain stimulative or inhibitory element of the enzymatic activity. Waters containing a high level of urea, nitrate and nitrite have a stimulative effect on the urease activity.
The present and possible dehydrogenase activity has an important decrease in certain zones. This happens because the water from the Bega Canal has been cleaned from a toxic pollution found in the domestic and especially industrial waste waters (some heavy metals from specialized factories). Based on the EISQ values certain pollution sources were identified which have a destructive effect on the communities of the microorganism and organism from the water and the sediment in the Bega Canal.

loredana@marcu-net.com

With today's evolving science and technology, there is a desperate need for retailoring science education. Whether biology or physics, chemistry or computing, mathematics or engineering, one should seek for interaction between disciplines not only at research level but also at teaching levels. The term 'interdisciplinary' is increasingly gaining meaning for the new generation of researchers and educators as the novel approaches to all areas of science are based on multidisciplinary methods. Fields such as medical physics, biochemistry, computational biology, bioengineering, physical chemistry, just to mention some, are a valid proof of the need for interaction between sciences. Often students are confused regarding their future, as they are not aware of the applicative side of their chosen discipline. Furthermore, both undergraduate and postgraduate students encounter frequent gaps in their knowledge because of the lack of coordination and interaction between disciplines. These hiccups in the educational system could be overcome through a better organization of curriculum. An example of interdisciplinary approach in science education is medical physics. A medical physicist must have a multidisciplinary vision of physics, otherwise the goals of this developing area are not met. The aim of the present talk is to illustrate the branching science of medical physics, the need for its correlation with molecular biology, chemistry, computing, mathematics and technology, and to underline its ultimate goal: to be of service, as an adjuvant field, to the novel areas of medicine.

Agricultural practices that improve agricultural sustainability are needed particularly for brown luvic soil. Soil enzyme activities can provide information on how soil management is affecting the processes in soil such as decomposition and nutrient cycling. Soil enzyme activities (actual and potential dehydrogenase, catalase, acid and alkaline phosphatase) were determined in the 0–10, 10–20, and 20–30 cm layers of a brown luvic soil submitted to a complex fertilization experiment with different types of green manure. It was found that each activity decreased with increasing sampling depth. It should be emphasized that green-manuring of maize led to a significant increase in each of the five enzymatic activities determined. The enzymatic indicators of soil quality calculated from the values of enzymatic activities showed the order: lupinus + rape + oat > lupinus > vetch + oat + ryegrass > lupinus + oat + vetch > unfertilized plot. This order means that by determination of enzymatic activities valuable information can be obtained regarding fertility status of soils. There were significant correlations of soil enzyme activities with physical properties.

Capsicum annuum is an important vegetable for human alimentation, because of its content in vitamins, minerals and, especially, the capsyne, which is a strong antioxidant. In this experiment we have studied the development of Capsicum annuum vitroplantlets, the Mexican variety (Jalapeño), obtained by aseptic germination of this plant’s seeds. The seeds were inoculated on Murashige and Skoog medium (BM), with and without growth regulators, resulting 4 experimental variants: V0–control variant = BM without growth regulators, V1 = BM+NAA(0.1mg/l), V2 = BM+IBA(0.1mg/l), and V3 = BM+KIN (0.1mg/l). The experiment, which lasted for 40 days, have revealed that the best growth medium for Capsicum annuum vitroplantlets is V1 (BM+NAA), the IBA and KIN having a negative influence to these plantlets development. After 40 days of “in vitro” culture, the ex-vitroplantlets were acclimatized successfully in common soil.

In this experiment we have initiated a Rosmarinus officinalis vitroculture, on different growth media. As biological material we used apexes, taken from an only plant. The development medium have consisted in Murashige and Skoog standard mixture, where growth regulators were added, resulting 4 experimental variants: V0 – control variant – basic medium (BM), V1 – BM +  2mg/l BA + 1mg/l IBA, V2 - BM + 2mg/l BA + 1mg/l IAA, V3 –BM + 2mg/l BA + 1mg/l NAA. The experiment lasted for 90 days. We have found that the initiation of Rosmarinus officinalis vitroculture is possible, the best growth medium for this purpose being the basic one (V0) - Murashige and Skoog without growth regulators.

            Salicylic acid (SA) and some of its derivates are phenolic compounds recently recognized as plant growth regulators involved in many physiological processes including photosynthesis. One of the important derivates of Salicylic Acid is the Acetylsalicylic Acid. In the present investigation we studied the influence of exogenous Acetylsalicylic and Salicylic acid with different concentrations on the assimilatory pigments contents of the primary leaves of wheat seedlings in comparison with the same parameters of the control lots which were treated with water. The wheat seedlings were soaked for 6 hours in 0.01mM; 0.1mM; 0.5mM and 1 mM SA or ASA solutions and in water for the control lot, germinated for 7 days on filter paper moistened with water. After that, we planted the plantlets in sand and sprayed their coleoptiles and primary leaves, each day for an additional 7 days, with water. In the 14th days of germination we determined the content of assimilatory pigments extracted with N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The results showed that exogenous 0.01 mM, 0.1mM, 0.5 mM or 1.0 mM SA solution treatments cause more significant increases in the assimilatory pigments contents in leaves of wheat  plantlets than treatments with ASA solutions of the same concentrations do.

In the framework of this experiment was the study of the reaction of Coleus blumei Benth. vitrocultures in hipoxic conditions, using vitroplantlets having 2 weeks from initiation whereupon them was applied an oil stratum: paraffin or silicon oil. The oil stratum was of 1 cm3, 2 cm3 or 5 cm3, the witness – lot vitroplantlets bare of oil. In the moment when the vitroplantlets surpassed the oil stratum was initiated a subculture bare of oil. After each 4 weeks the vitroplantlets was analyzed and was determined the assimilatory pigments in leafs. After the first 12 weeks witness lot grew up of the oil stratums, over 48 experimental weeks were subcultivated 3 times. Using a stratum of 1 cm3 of paraffin or silicon oil, after 24 of weeks in double stratum culture, the vitroplantlets surpassed the oil stratum, at this faze was no observed any eminent inhibitory reaction. Covering the vitrocultures with a stratum of 2 cm3 of paraffin oil, it was noted an inhibition of increase on a period of 32 of weeks, the content of assimilatory pigments being with 8,9 % lower than that earmarked to the witness lot to 4 weeks from inoculation (vitroplantule bare of oil). In this case – in subculture - was observed an inhibitory reaction for 9 weeks. Covering the vitroplantlets with 5 cm3 of paraffin oil or silicon stratum was observed a prolongation of grow inhibition until 44 weeks – which determine a stronger inhibition in subcultures for 24 weeks. For inducing a grow inhibition on Coleus blumei Benth. vitrocultures the best solution is using paraffin or silicon oil in a 5 cm3 stratum of paraffin or silicon oil, the vitroplantlets reaction being similar.

Is known the fact that the Cymbidium hybridum orchid protocorms, submersed in liquid culture medium (in hypoxia conditions) himself multiply with higher speed in comparison to aerated condition, on surface of agarized (solid) culture media. Also, is known the fact that the Luffa ligno-skeleton (obtained from ripe pulp of Luffa cilindrica fruits) lends successfully at its usage as wick in supply with nutrients of various plant species inoculs, cultivated “in vitro” on liquid media. In this work, we are presenting the role of Luffa ligno-skeleton in maintaining the Cymbidium hybridum protocorms, cultivated “in vitro”, on culture medium liquid surface (type of Murashige-Skoog, 1962).
Behind these experiments, was proved that the ligno-skeleton of Luffa type of bridges for Cymbidium hybridum protocorms, sustained in aerated condition, is more efficient in bearing with those marked on solid culture medium, as in number, as in accumulation of fresh and dry weight, regardless of growth regulators included in media; on liquid culture media containing 1 mg/l AIB or 2 mg/l K as growth regulators, where bearing with the homologue culture variant (solidified media with agar-agar, with same mineral and organic composition), the differences was until 29.3% superior, and bearing with the witness medium (solid – agarized – medium, but without growth regulators) until 30.2% biggest, concerning the number of protocorms.

Ambrosia artemisiifolia (ragweed) is an annual, herbaceous, with high invasive potential, wind-pollinated plant that is important allergenic weed belonging to the Asteraceae plant family. Allergenic airpollen can interact with other components of environmental global change in a synergic way increasing the risks to public health.
Analysis of the pollen count was performed on the basis of the data collected in Timişoara in the season of 2004. Airborne ragweed pollen concentrations, measured continuously with a volumetric method are compared with respect to both their quantitative and seasonal aspects. A weekly programmed Hirst spore-trap was used to sample airborne pollen grains, calibrated to handle a flow of 10 L/min of air, which roughly corresponds to a human breathing rhythm. In Timisoara the Lanzoni model was used. The daily quantities of pollen are expressed as numbers of pollen grains per cubic meter of air per day (PG/m3).
The pollen seasons show 3 main parts: tree season (February–April), grass season (May–July), weed season (July–October). In September 65,71% of the total aeropollen concentration is due to Ambrosia. The highest concentration of ragweed pollen was 220 PG/m3.
Ambrosia artemisiifolia have a pronounced invasive character. Since 1910, having been spread all over the country, it has become the most common weed in Romania. There is an urgent need to organize interventions to stop ragweed expansion and to clear the areas already polluted.

  • The traditions of higher education in Oradea, metaphorically speaking, go back to time immemorial. This year (2008) there are 228 years since the inauguration of higher education in Oradea and 44 years of continuous higher education in Oradea.
    At the end of the 18th century, "a higher institution for philosophic teaching" is founded in Oradea in 1780, which was to become in 1788 the Faculty of Law, the oldest faculty not only within the Romanian borders but also in a vast region of Eastern Europe.
    In May 1990 a decree of the Romanian Government established the Technical University of Oradea, later called the University of Oradea, and based on impressive traditions of academic life in the town. It was an act of scientific and cultural restoration long expected in the life of the Romanian society, a major gain of the people's Revolution of December 1989, one of the greatest Romanian achievements in Crisana after the Great Union on 1 December 1918. This is how the dream of several generations of scholars came true, clearly expressed by a historian of Oradea: "As regarding the future, the desire of all well-meant Romanians is to establish in Oradea a complete university, the lights of which will shine across the entire western border of Romania".
    Today, the University of Oradea is an integrated institution of higher education of this kind, comprising 18 faculties.
    The mission of the University of Oradea is to train and educate on a large scale both the students and also the high education graduates, as well as to approache certain domains of science and technology at high level.
    The structure of the University contains academic education, postgraduate education and scientific research.
    The University of Oradea expanded itself by developing new faculties and research teams, as well as by developing certain specializations inside the existing faculties.
    Education will always be the best long-term investment, as nothing is as precious as the knowledge gained during academic instruction.
