“General Biology” Department

General Biology department was founded in 1985. The recent years the department has taught students in Biology and Agriculture, Biology-Chemistry and Biology directions. Nowadays the department possesses a large scale of educational and scientific researches base: Scientific Laboratory of Experimental Biology (its structural parts: biotechnology, the gene-bank of salt tolerant plants, experimental fields, malakalogy), Information Resource Center of the Department, Museum, Educational laboratories and auditoriums, base of practical of field trips, Regional Research Center.
According to the carried out works of the department it makes collaborations with National University of Uzbekistan, Fargona State University, Samarqand State University, Tashkent State Pedagogic University, Saint Petersburg State University (Russia), Kemerova State University (Russia), Bio-organic chemistry Institute, Zoology Institute, Microbiology Institute, Biology Institutes of Science Academy of Uzbekistan and foreign organizations such as ICARDA, IWMI, ICBA, IPGRI and CIP.
The department was led by I.Sh.Halpaev during 1985-1987 years, during 1987-1999 years by I.Z.Ahmetov, during 1999-2001 by A.A.Pozilov and from 2001 is led by H.H.Kushiev.

The staff of the department are as follows: doctors of biology science Zohidjon Tilyaboev, Alovutdin Shamsiddinovich Hamroev, Ochil Mavlonovich Mavlonov, candidates of biology science, assistant professors Inobat Anvarovna Shirinovna, Tojiddin Hamdamovich Kuliev, Toyirqul Turdiqulov, Zafar Umirboevich Abduqulov, teachers Madali Azizhonovich Saidov, Abruy Kozimovich Eshquvatov, Nodira Aripova, Umida Quziboeva, Abdulla Karimqulov, Lobar Allaeva, Karomat Ismoilov teach subject as in biology directions Human Anatomy, Zoology; Physiology of Human and Animals, Cytology, Genetics, Biochemistry, Biophysics, Biotechnology, Gistology, Individual development biology, Theory of evolution development, Biometrics, Molecular Biology, Toxicology, Nature and Animal World of Uzbekistan, Malakalogy, Basis of Nature Science and Age Physiology.

          Information Resource Center. Information Resource Center is an important base at the department. This center possesses 16 computers of latest versions, printer, scanner and video projectors. There are electron versions of all subjects taught in the department, electron aids, and presentations of the lectures, virtual laboratory and stands in the center. Moreover, information center is important base for the presentations of the works of the staff of the department and students of the faculty. All computers of the center are connected to global network Internet. As well as the center has aids on subjects taught at the department, methodical appliances, qualification works, course works, dissertations and scientific magazines and other materials concerning carried out scientific researches.

          Museum of the Department. Museum keeps samples of researches and methodical works carried out by the staff and students of the department, exponents and preparats of the animal world of the continent. As well as it is used as scientific laboratory for the researches carried out on zoology.

Educational auditoriums and laboratories. The laboratories and practical rooms and educational auditoriums are equipped according to the plan.

Experimental Biology Laboratory. It includes laboratories “Biotechnology”, “The gene bank of salt tolerant plants” and “Malakology” organized according to the carried out scientific researches at the department. The carried out researches themes are as follows:

1. Study the outer factors of the growing and development of the plants and ruling with the help of active physiologic matters.
2. Selection and creation of salt tolerant plants.
3. Dry mollusks spread in the condition of Central Asia.

Projects. The department has been carrying out certain local and international projects in the past few years:

1. Fundamental Research Direction “Study the adaptation mechanism of insects” (2000-2003);
2. International Project in collaboration with International Organization such as IWMI, ICARDA and ICBA “Organization good living condition being against in Aral Basin land and water resources degradation” (2005-2007);
3. Practical Research Direction “Creation of the preparats against diseases of wheat and stimulating the development and growing of wheat using local production” in collaboration with National University of Uzbekistan. (2006-2008);
4. Fundamental Research Direction “The spread of dry mollusks in Uzbekistan and adjoining territories and their epidemic evolution” (2009-2012);
5. Practical Researches Direction “The Creation of preparats against wheat diseases” (2009-2011);
6. “Selection of salt tolerant sorts of potatoes and working out production technologies” in collaboration with CIP (from 2008);
7. “Keeping salt tolerant plants of Mirzachul and reproduction of abandoned lands” (from 2009).

Researches carried out through biotechnology.

The Gene-Bank of Salt tolerant Plants.

It was defined the combination feature mechanism of salt on the basis of restudying of local and foreign introduced plants. The extension methods are used in ecologic restoration of salted lands and in keeping bio-variety.

The defense of Plant. The investigations were carried out on the basis of preservation bio-variety and defense plants against insects and diseases. According to the carried out investigations the preparat DKM-1 was created against funge disease.

Selection and creation of salt tolerant plants

The salt tolerance indices of plants samples were studied through introduction from foreign countries and of local community. According to the influence on changeability and determination indices of wheat it was studied 4 wheat sorts, 2 cotton sorts of local salt tolerant sorts and halophytes and they were offered for production.

Malakology

Mollusks are very important natural e-conductors. On the basis of studying these mollusks the principles of evolution development of vital organisms and outer influence, we may conclude that there are changes in vital organisms. According to the researches in this direction the spread principles of the group mollusks in bushes. It was defined more than 10 new types of dry group mollusks in Uzbekistan and adjoining territories.
