In this article, Kyrgyz scholar and Doctor of Philosophy A. Aliev, for the first time, provides a characterization and outlines the main ideas of his study, “Eastern Renaissance”, on the creative legacy of Z. Babur
Rodents of the family Muridae are among the most widespread and ecologically adaptable mammals in Kyrgyzstan. They play important ecological roles in seed dispersal, insect regulation, and food chains, while also serving as reservoirs of dangerous zoonotic pathogens such as plague, tularemia, and leptospirosis. Understanding their species composition and distribution is therefore essential for both zoological and epidemiological research. This study aimed to investigate the diversity, distribution, and ectoparasite associations of Muridae in southern Kyrgyzstan. Field surveys were carried out in the foothill and mid-mountain zones between [insert years/seasons]. Small mammals were captured using live traps, identified by morphological features, and their relative abundance was estimated using standard density indices with statistical error (± SE). Parasitic mites were collected and identified with conventional parasitological methods. A total of 11 rodent species belonging to four genera were recorded. In the foothill zone, the dominant species were the grey rat (Rattus norvegicus, 21.1 ± 2.57%) and house mouse (Mus musculus, 19.1 ± 2.47%), while subdominants included the red-tailed gerbil (Meriones libycus) and the wood mouse (Apodemus sylvaticus). In the mid-mountain zone, A. sylvaticus (23.1 ± 2.96%) and the archaic vole (Microtus juldaschi, 21.2 ± 2.87%) prevailed. In total, 18 gamasid mite species from nine genera and four families were identified, with Lealaps agilis (31.42 ± 2.22%) as the predominant parasite. These findings clarify the composition, distribution, and host–parasite relationships of Muridae in southern Kyrgyzstan and provide a baseline for future ecological and sanitary-epidemiological monitoring.
The paper presents the results of calculations of technical and economic indicators of energy complexes based on renewable energy sources for heat and power supply of greenhouses. Costs and expenditures of heat energy resources of traditionally used types and on the basis of non-traditional, renewable energy sources for heating of greenhouses located on the ground surface and in the ground at the depth of 0.6 m are determined by calculation. Based on the calculations of technical and economic indicators and climatic conditions, as well as the accumulated experience in the use of resources based on renewable energy sources in the Republic of Uzbekistan prepared the following recommendations: the cost of 1 m3 of gas obtained from a biogas plant is quite acceptable for heating greenhouses, the payback period of biogas plants is 6.6 years of use, taking into account the winter season; when using photovoltaic plants for power supply of greenhouses in comparison with the traditional distribution network, the payback period depending on the type of grown products is from 4 to 6 years; energy resources obtained from renewable energy sources are quite suitable for heating and power supply of greenhouses on the territory of Uzbekistan. The results of calculations show that in greenhouses located on the surface and in the ground, due to the difference in the coefficient of heat of combustion, the consumption of biogas is on average 1.4 times higher. At the same time, the cost of produced energy is much higher than traditional sources when switching to alternative energy sources. The combined use of various energy saving methods allows for a significant reduction in energy production costs from 20 to 40
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 resource potential of each of the studied species was determined using well-known geobotanical methods. As a result, the resource potential of each studied species within the territory of Kyrgyzstan for one growing season was clarified, and information about their botanical, phytogeographical, and economic characteristics as biological species was supplemented. Among the recorded species of medicinal plants of Kyrgyzstan, 9 species have herbs as a source of raw materials, 3 have rhizomes with roots, 3 have roots, and 5 have mature fruits. Such types of raw material sources as flower buds, immature fruits, seeds, milky plant juice, and flowers are represented only in 1 plant species each. The largest amount of raw materials of plant origin is found in Rumex paulsenianus, Echium vulgare, Crataegus turkestanica, and species (there are only 7 of them) representing the genus Rosa. In the rest of the studied plants, this index is relatively lower than in the previous species.
We introduce the equivalence relation in the solution space to initial value problem for dynamical systems: the distance between their trajectories approaches zero with time approaching infinity. The phenomenon "the dimension of the quotient space is less than one of the initial spaces" is named "asymptotic reduction of solution space dimension". We demonstrate that various well-known results including existence of special solutions of delay differential equations with small argument can be presented uniformly by this method. These results are extended to operator-difference equations and improved by the new method of splitting spaces. Some results are further verified by computations.
