PROBLEMS OF STUDENTS IN UNIVERSITIES AND NEW WAYS OF SOLVING THEM

The adaptive response of 23 cotton varieties to drought stress was studied.Due to the fact that cotton has a greater sensitivity to the effects of unfavorable environmental factors, and therefore the least resistance at the germination stage, the assessment of the resistance of varieties to stress was carried out based on the indicators of seed germination in a sucrose solution simulating physiological drought.Studies have shown that, depending on the genotype, the varieties differed significantly in the amplitude of changes in the physiological indicator during the adaptive process.The reaction of the variety samples to the action of an unfavorable factor allowed us to roughly divide the varieties into groups, determining the different degrees of comparative resistance to stress.In the next series of studies, some technological indicators of cotton fiber quality were analyzed in resistant genotypes.These varieties are recommended for use in various breeding programs.
