The research results on studying of an influence of an inoculation and mineral nitrogen application for symbiotic activity and seed production of different varieties of soya bean are presented in this article. All these researches were conducted in the All-Russia Scientific Research Institute of grain legumes and cereal crops in 2011- 2013. Symbiotic and productive ability of new soya varieties Zusha and Mezenka in comparison with the standard Lantsetnaya variety is studied. It is established that formation of the symbiotic device and its activity depended on a preseeding inoculation of seeds bacterial fertilizer (nitragin) and also on presence of spontaneous populations of rhizobium in the soil. The period duration of a symbiotic nitrogen-fixing depended on varietal features and was longer at Zusha and Mezenka's more late-season varieties. Seeds inoculation by nitragin was surpassed in efficiency of mineral nitrogen application in a dose of 60 kg per hectare. An addition yield reached 2,6 c/hectare. Different reactions of varieties when forming a crop on distribution of rainfall during the growth season was noted. Having prevalence of rainfall in the first half of summer on formation of a crop early ripening varieties which used spring soil deposits of moisture and rainfall of May-June more rationally had advantage, less suffering from a July-August drought and a heat. More late-ripening varieties had advantage in case of better providing with rains if the second half of summer. The heavy yield - 30,7 c/hectare (on average for 3 years) created Mezenka variety.

Soya is the main protein and oil-bearing crop of modern world agriculture which ranks second to none according to the contents of biologically valuable protein and oil in seeds.
In 2012 the cultivated area of soya in the world was 106.6 million hectares, in Russia-1487 thousand hectares, in Central district – 220 thousand hectares (Belgorod-92, Orel – 25 thousand hectares.).
Soya cultivation development program accepted in Russia plans to increase cultivated areas by 2017 to 2.7 million hectares, including in Central district (Belgorod, Voronezh, Orel) to 500 thousand hectares [1].
Soya expansion to new, more northern regions of cultivation (width 48-520) became possible in connection with creation and introduction in production of early ripening varieties of northern ecotype with growing season length about 100 - 115 days, such as Lantsetnaya, Svapa and others, steadily ripping in the conditions of the Orel region.
However the climate change tendency towards warming is noted in the last decades. According to forecasts of climatologists, ground temperature can increase on 1.4-5.80 C by the end of 21 centuries that will lead to lengthening of the crop season for 1.5 months, and the annual sum of effective temperatures will increase on 600-6500 C. (2) Such climate changes will promote both to soya expansion to northern regions of our country and to cultivation in our region of more late-maturing varieties.
In this regard the purpose of the real work was studying the influence of an inoculation and mineral nitrogen application on efficiency of new soya varieties Mezenka and Zusha created in the All-Russia Scientific Research Institute of grain legumes and cereal crops.
METHODS OF RESEARCH
Researches were conducted in 2011-2013 on a skilled site of laboratory of genetics and biotechnology Federal State Budgetary Scientific Institution the All-Russia Scientific Research Institute of grain legumes and cereal crops.
The responsiveness on a nitraginization of two new soy varieties Zusha and Mezenka selected in the All-Russia Scientific Research Institute of grain legumes and cereal crops was studied in an experiment field. Lantsetnaya variety was used as control. The following variants were put on each variety: control without inoculation, variant with application of mineral nitrogen in a dose of 60 kg of active ingredient on hectare and variants with a strain inoculation 634.
Frequency of experiments is the quadruple. The area of test plots – 10 m2. Seeding – wide-row, row-width spacing – 45 sm. Seeding rate – 600 thousand the seeds viable on 1 hectare. Seeding – by the seeder SKS-6-10. Nitrogin for an inoculation was received from all-Russian Scientific Research Institute of agricultural microbiology (Pushkin St. Petersburg). Formation of the symbiotic device was estimated on activity of nitrogenase enzyme by method of an acetylene reduction and by quantity and mass of root galls on the plants. The indicators of photosynthetic plants activity were also defined. The enumeration of seed harvest was from every plot, by the continuous threshing of the Sampo-130 combines.
Seeding in all years was carried out in the second decade of May. In 2011 the harvesting of Lantsetnay was carried out on September 7, Zusha and Mezenka-on September 20. In 2012 Lantsetnaya was harvested on September 12, Zusha and Mezenka – on September 17. In 2013 in connection with heavy rain falls in September the harvesting of all varieties was carried out on October 4.
RESULTS OF RESEARCH
Climatic conditions of the crop season in 2011 were favorable for soya development and were characterized by a large amount of rainfall (373mm or 130% of long-time average annual) and by rather high temperature (the excess of long-time average annual on 1.3-4C0) during the all crop season. It is possible to admit the distribution of rainfall on the crop season was optimum as their main quantity dropped out during formation of reproductive organs (from third decade of June to the second decade of August) which is the main maximum of soy’s water consumption. These conditions allowed receiving the heaviest yield for years of carrying out the experiments with the studied varieties.
Climatic conditions of the crop seasons in 2012 and 2013 were similar and were less favorable for soya development in comparison with 2011. Temperature range was characterized by rather high temperature (the excess of long-time average annual on months on 0,9-3,3 °C) during all crop season that it is possible to characterize as near optimal for soya development. The precipitation for the crop season was 276 mm in 2012 and 216 mm in 2013. Thus the soil moisture deficit was observed during formation of reproductive organs that led to decrease in level of a crop.

Rather high level of nitrogenase activity in all variants was revealed at an assessment of parameters of a symbiotic nitrogen fixation. The existence of a large number of knobs and high level of nitrogenase activity on the control variant speaks for existence in the soil of a test plot of numerous spontaneous populations a soya rhizobium that complicates an assessment of a real contribution of a symbiotic nitrogen fixation in the crop formation. The increase of nitrogenase activity level at the tested varieties on the early development phases was approximately equally and reached a maximum to a bud-formation period. Decrease in level of nitrogenase activity was noted in a phase of filling beans and stopped at Lantsetnaya variety by the beginning of August. The longer period of nitrogenase activity (till 3rd decade of August) and higher level of a knob formation on late phases of development was noted at late-season varieties Zusha and Mezenka. The reduction effect of a nitrogenase activity at mineral nitrogen application was seen on earlier phases of development and leveled on later phases. According to the variety factor the higher level of nitrogenase activity is noted on Zusha and Mezenka varieties at an inoculation by a strain 634 (table 2).

As many researchers note, the essential value in increase of soya efficiency has accumulation of green and dry material of plants. Thus the formation of a sheet surface depends on district width: the southern soya is growing up, the higher it is and vice versa, and net productivity of photosynthesis at the same varieties is more in northern areas where formation of the leaves area goes more weakly [3]. Thus the area of a sheet surface is directly connected with efficiency of crops. [4,5]. With reduction or increase in number of leaves in a direct proportion the number of beans, and, therefore, a crop of seeds decreases or increases [6]. However such tendency is traced generally at low values of a sheet surface. So in experiments of All-union scientific research institute of soya [7,8] at soya productivity 612 and 14-16 c/hectare the maximum area of a leaf area was correspondingly 10-17 and 1120 thousand sq.m/hectare. In more southern latitudes (Krasnodar Region), even at a moderate amount of precipitation during growth of soya vegetative organs , only the shortseason varieties by the time of achievement of the greatest size had no superfluous index of the leaves area and varied depending on a variety from 3.75 sq.m/m to 7.46 m2/m [9]. At such sizes of the leaf apparatus the distinct tendency especially of lower efficiency of photosynthesis is found, than the size of an index of the leaves area of soya crops was bigger that as a result leads to formation of an identical crop of the general biomass. The similar tendency is traced in our experiments in comparison to photosynthetic indicators during the years which are differing according to moisture providing (Table 3).

So in 2011, more favorable on moisture security, the area of a soya leaf surface in a phase of seeds filling reached 57.2 thousand sq.m/hectare, and in 2012 in connection with a lack of moisture was 1.3 times less and was 41.7 thousand sq.m/hectare.
In crop estimating for years of taking the experiments it should be noted strong variability depending on weather conditions, and first of all from quantity and nature of distribution of rainfall during the crop season, and also from the level of provision with nitrogen. Optimum conditions for soya are created at 300 mm of rainfall and more for the crop season [10]. The mean annual precipitation for the most probable soya crop season makes about 290 mm for the Orel region. The conditions of 2011 corresponded to optimum level of precipitation amount, and this allowed to creation of the greatest crop for all years of researches.
The estimated varieties in our experiments according to the international classification belong to the short season group 000, but according to the classification of All-Union Research Institute of Plant Breeding they are subdivided into two groups. Lantsetnaya, ripping in 98-109 days belongs to the short season group, and Zusha and Mezenka ripping in 110-120 days belong to the middle-early group. Plants potential efficiency to a great extent is defined by duration of production processes therefore under optimum conditions of soy variety cultivation usually that is more yielding, than they later ripening. The varieties of the second group are distinguished by higher level of productivity and higher nitrogen-fixing potential that naturally raised their resource-and energy saving role in an agrocenosis. Inoculation, and application of mineral nitrogen had positive influence on formation of seeds crop, and the bigger effect from an inoculation was observed with optimum moisture providing (tab. 4).
On the average of three years the efficiency of an inoculation exceeded the mineral nitrogen application in a dose of 60 kg for hectare.

However adaptation of the tested soya varieties to concrete soil climatic conditions significantly stands in contrast. A.I. Kuptsov (11) noted that because of the adaptability to conditions of monsoonal climate a little possibly wide cultivation of soya on grain in the European part of our country. In the conditions of our region the main limiting factor of soya growth productivity are insufficient resources of moisture, especially during the reproductive plant growth (July-August). Thus the distribution of rainfall during the crop season plays an important role. Short-season varieties which use spring soil reserves of moisture and rainfall of May-June more rationally have advantage on formation of a crop with excess of rainfall in the first half of summer, and less suffering from a July-August drought and a heat. The later-season varieties have advantage in case of enough rains in the second half of summer. So, in 2011 more favorable providing in moisture, later-season variety Mezenka had an output yield of 38,1 c/hectare and exceeded an short-season variety Lantsetnaya on 11.2 c/hectare or for 41,6% (Tab. 5). In 2012-2013 having lack of moisture in the second half of summer the realized yield of variety was the higher, the shorter-season variety was. The short-season variety Lantsetnaya had almost the same yield, as well as later-season varieties in 2012 and 2013.

CONCLUSIONS
It is established that the soya seeds inoculation by nitragin on the basis of a strain 634 is more effective, than application of mineral nitrogen in a dose of 60 kg on hectare on the dark gray forest soil in the conditions of the Orel region. Zusha and Mezenka middle-early varieties exceed Lantsetnaya variety in productivity level and realize productive potential more effectively at enough rainfall in the second half of the crop season. For the stabilization of soya productivity level it is necessary to orientate for cultivation of the soy varieties differing on ripeness.
