This article presents the results of the studies on essential oil content, qualitative and quantitative<br />
composition in Salvia offi cinalis L. genotypes cultivated in the Republic of Moldova. The<br />
essential oil content in fi ve Salvia offi cinalis L. genotypes varies with the genotype and harvest<br />
phase in both leaved shoots, leaves and infl orescences. The highest content of essential oil was<br />
registered in the material harvested following fl ower and seed fall and made 1.455-1.823%<br />
(dry matter) in leaved shoots and 1.408-1.749% (dry matter) in leaves. A GC-MS analysis<br />
revealed that 14-23 components were identifi ed in the essential oil extracted from leaved shoots<br />
and 17-25 components from leaves. The major components are represented by monoterpene<br />
ketones: α-thujone (21.2-38.8), β-thujone (5.877-16.201%), camphor (17.5-24.6%), followed<br />
by eucalyptol (6.47- 11.2%). All the genotypes belong to the thujone /camphor /eucalyptol<br />
chemotype.<br />

GENETIC HETEROGENEITY OF TOMATO MUTANT FORMS FOR THE MALE<br />
GAMETOPHYTE RESISTANCE TO HEAT, DROUGHT AND COLD. Makovei M.<br />
// Buletinul Academiei de Ştiinţe a Moldovei. Ştiinţele vieţii. 2012, No 2 (317), p. 76-84.<br />
This paper presents the assessment results on tomato mutant collection resistance to a<br />
range of stressful environmental factors (heat, drought, cold) at the stage of mature male gametophyte.<br />
Mutant lines with different levels and types of resistance have been identifi ed. It is<br />
shown that the resistance to high and low temperatures, as well as to drought is determined by<br />
different genetic systems, which indicates the polygenic nature of these symptoms. Genotypes<br />
have been identifi ed that are promising for breeding and highly resistant to all the stress factors<br />
studied.<br />

MANIFESTATION OF HETEROSIS IN F 1 POLYCROSS HYBRID OF<br />
LAVANDULA ANGUSTIFOLIA MIIL. Butnaraş Violeta. // Buletinul Academiei de Ştiinţe<br />
a Moldovei. Ştiinţele vieţii. 2012, No 2 (317), p. 84-91.<br />
In this study, one hundred and forty F 1 polycross hybrids of Lavandula angustifolia were<br />
evaluated and ten perspective hybrids were selected, that differ in the value of quantitative characters,<br />
the vegetation period, the corolla color etc. The heterosis effect was evaluated for these<br />
characters relative to the maternal forms. The plant height of the perspective polycross hybrids<br />
is 48-67 cm, the infl orescence length varies between 24.0 cm and 35.3 cm, and the length of<br />
fl oral ear between 4.032% and 5.165% (dry matter). The heterosis effect manifested in the<br />
F 1 polycross hybrids for the “plant height” recorded the values varying between +1.0% and<br />
+36.1%; “the number of fl oral stems” between +11.4 and +10-9,8%, and “the length of infl orescence”<br />
between 1.3% and 82.0%. The manifestation of the heterosis effect for the character<br />
of “the essential oil content” in the lavender hybrids is the highest and varies in the limits of<br />
