Participation in the 318th International Conference on Agricultural and Biological Science (ICABS)
Associate Professor of RUDN University Agrarian-Technological Institute Khomenets Nikolai Gennadievich participated in the 318th International Conference on Agricultural and Biological Science (ICABS),
The conference was organized by ISER — The International Society of Engineers and Researchers, a non-profit organization that promotes engineering sciences and technologies related to the latest developments and issues that will be discussed and experimented, through interaction between researchers and academics around the world on a common platform in collaboration with PET & The IIER.
International advisory members ISER:
- Shahriar Shahbazpanahi, Islamic Azad University, Department of Civil Engineering, Sanandaj, Kurdistan, Iran, PhD (Structural Engineering), University Putra Malaysia, Malaysia,
2009-Present - Mohd Ab Malek Bin Md Shah, Lecturer, Department of Laws,University Teknologi Mara (Melaka) city campus,Malaysia
- MR. Subrata Sinha, Centre for Bioinformatics Studies, Dibrugarh University, Assam
- PROF. Raymond Quilas Datuon, head Research, Publication, and Faculty Development Chiang Kai Shek College
The key intention of ICABS 2018 was to give opportunity for all participants to share their ideas and experience, establish research or business relations as well as to find international linkage for future collaborations in their career path.
Biologists from RUDN University working together with their colleagues from the Institute of Molecular Biology of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Flax studied the genes that determine the fatty acid composition in flaxseed oil and identified polymorphisms in six of them. The team also found out what gene variations could extend the shelf life of flaxseed oil. This data can be used to improve the genetic selection of new flax breeds. The results were published in the BMC Plant Biology journal.
The soils of urban gardens and vegetable patches contain a lot of toxicants (including lead and arsenic) in high concentrations which can be harmful to the health of children and people with chronic diseases. A team of soil scientists from RUDN University suggested a remediation method developed based on data collected in a garden of Brooklyn (NY, U.S.).

A team of biologists analyzed soil samples from a pasture and a regularly mowed meadow and found out that grazing lets more carbon get into the soil than mowing. This, in turn, improves the carbon cycle and makes microorganisms more efficient.
