Коллекция Вавилова
Vavilov’s Collection

Мир сможет выжить, или Что такое коллекция Н.И. Вавилова?
София Варган
Жил да был Николай Иванович Вавилов – географ, биолог, ботаник, селекционер, путешественник, человек, который заложил в России основы генетики. То, что он умер в саратовской тюрьме 26 января 1943 года, теперь уже стало практически общеизвестно. Это в прежние времена скромно писали: «Это была последняя поездка академика Н. И. Вавилова. Через два с половиной года его не стало…» (издание «Жизнь замечательных людей. Николай Вавилов», 1968 г.). И ни звука – почему и где умер.
Но, собственно говоря, речь не о биографии Николая
Читать полностью: http://shkolazhizni.ru/archive/0/n-28694/Ивановича, а точнее – не совсем о биографии. Речь о его деятельности как ботаника, селекционера и путешественника.

Николай Иванович был блестящим теоретиком, великолепным экспериментатором, человеком весьма любопытным, который все рвался потрогать собственными руками. Если бы он был химиком, то, наверное, попытался бы попробовать даже цианид – чтоб узнать, каково на вкус это соединение.

Движимый всеохватывающим любопытством и научными интересами, Николай Иванович Вавилов занимался организацией разнообразных ботанико-агрономических экспедиций, в которых и сам принимал активное участие. Он объездил весь мир, все континенты, лишь Австралия и Антарктида остались не охваченными его агрономическими порывами. На каждом посещенном континенте
Что сделал в науке Н. Вавилов? Это учесть можно. Но не учесть - чего он не успел href=”http://shkolazhizni.ru/archive/0/n-22696/Вавилов установил древние очаги формообразования культурных растений. Впоследствии он создал учение о мировых центрах происхождения культурных растений. И это учение – не просто любопытная теория, но оно имеет вполне практическое приложение, ведь условия эволюционирования и селекции какой-либо культуры являются основой требований к условиям ее произрастания.

Но в путешествиях Вавилов занимался не только поисками древних очагов и выяснением прелюбопытного факта, что почти все культурные растения родом из горных районов тропиков, субтропиков и умеренного пояса, а вовсе не из долин Тигра, Евфрата, Ганга и Нила. Николай Иванович был коллекционером.

Правда, коллекционирование его имело прочную привязку к основной специальности. Николай Иванович собирал семена культурных растений. И собрал гигантскую коллекцию. В нее вошли семена, собранные в 110 экспедициях (вот кто должен был вести программу для любителей путешествий!).

Коллекция Вавилова была предназначена для экспериментов по созданию новых сортов растений. Работы уже были начаты, но шли довольно медленно – мешал различный период вегетации растений, поэтому приходилось делать множество побочных экспериментов.

Пока же суд да дело, на горизонте советской науки возник Трофим Денисович Лысенко, не к ночи будь помянут. Стараниями этого «светила науки» были перепорчены основные сорта зерновых культур (и это при том, что в стране после потрясений революции, гражданской войны и раскулачивания практически не осталось сортового зерна). Но милейший «босоногий агроном» (так называли Лысенко в первых газетных публикациях, посвященных «чудесам», которые он якобы творил на своих экспериментальных грядках) на мелочи не разменивался, и порчи зерна ему было маловато.

Результатом карьеризма Лысенко стал разгром советской генетики. Под обломками погибли многие ученые. Кто-то был расстрелян, кто-то умер в заключении – как и Николай Иванович Вавилов. Лысенко благополучно занял место Вавилова – уселся в кресло директора Института генетики и, что самое поразительное, просидел в нем аж до конца 1964 года, обеспечивая глобальное отставание СССР в области сельского хозяйства от всего мира.

А коллекция семян Николая Ивановича Вавилова сохранилась. Она до сих пор хранится в Санкт-Петербурге. Ее не съели даже в самые голодные дни блокады, когда жевали ремни вприкуску со столярным клеем. Коллекцию берегли со всем пиететом к гигантскому труду ученого, оставившего уникальный подарок государству.

По сей день на основании этой коллекции можно создавать новые сорта растений. Специалисты считают, что и сейчас коллекция семян Вавилова способна обеспечить выживание всему миру. Кстати сказать, четверть из растений, чьи семена представлены в коллекции, считаются вымершими – но потенциально они живы, пока цело собрание Вавилова.

На сегодняшний день коллекция семян, собранная Николаем Ивановичем Вавиловым, оценивается примерно в 10-11 триллионов долларов.

Для сравнения – общая рыночная стоимость компаний, вошедших в рейтинг Forbes Global 2000 (рейтинг крупнейших компаний мира, включает в себя 2000 компаний) в этом году составила $20 трлн. Рыночная стоимость сегодняшнего лидера этого рейтинга – корпорации General Electric – составляет $89,87 млрд. Самая крупная компания России – Газпром (13 место в рейтинге Forbes Global 2000 этого года) – «стоит» $74,55 млрд.

Да что стоимость компаний! Путин недавно сообщил, что «на конец 2008 года золотовалютные запасы составили 427 миллиардов долларов, на 1 февраля – 386 с небольшим миллиардов долларов и на 1 июня они составили 404 миллиарда долларов».
Так-то. Стоимость коллекции семян, собранной репрессированным ученым, многократно превышает золотовалютные запасы государства. Фактически на сегодняшний день эта коллекция – самая дорогостоящая собственность России. Причем, дорогостоящая отнюдь не только в денежном выражении. Ведь она действительно способна обеспечить выживание всему миру!

    Reading about webcam jobs critiques is only beneficial when you can identify the source as accurate and trustworthy. In any other case it truly is in all probability just a advertising and marketing stunt. If you want to make sure which you get correct information and facts, you must verify the source and possibly attempt getting in touch with the individual that wrote the review. If it truly is a trustworthy source, the author really should have provided with some contact information.Is it genuinely a superb concept to listen to a person even if they are honest about what they write in the review? Well, for anyone who is thinking about obtaining a webcam job it’s most likely the only way of locating out about the actual details of the job without trying it o your personal. The most effective factor which you can do would be to gather details about a specific web-site that you simply know gives with decent pay and see what the information and facts amounts to.

Every person has various experiences in this type of working environment, creating it hard to judge how you may do working with only the information provided by others. Essentially, the only approach to accurately gauge this sort of adult job would be to attempt for a couple of days.

These trials are designed to give you a real really feel about the workings of being a webcam model, so make sure you give those a attempt and see if it works as opposed to invest a whole lot of time reading about it.If trying this for actual is still tough for you and you will need more insight, you can find a couple of trustworthy forums available dealing with such details. I am positive you’ll manage to obtain at the very least one and have as much details as you’ll need. Keep going back to that forum until you manage to make up your mind about a webcam job and you may also have the ability to discover what websites are the ideal for beginners.1 last choice could be to truly obtain a web page that makes it possible for you to chat for cost-free with the performers. You may be lucky sufficient to locate one that can supply some very first hand opinions about their job. This really is most likely the closest you can get to actually working, so unless you can obtain such an opportunity, we would need to recommend giving those trials a go.Keep in mind that webcam job critiques might be misleading and be certain that you get a lot more opinions before going for 1 site.
