Leadership adaptiv: aspecte teoretico-conceptuale [Articol]
(CEP USM, 2025) Ceacîr, Irina
This article explores the theoretical and conceptual foundations of adaptive leadership, emphasizing its relevance for institutional reforms in the Republic of Moldova during its process of European integration. Based on the works of Ronald Heifetz and collaborators, adaptive leadership is presented as a form of leadership capable of addressing complex challenges through collective learning, internal mobilization, and the management of systemic tensions. In contrast to transactional and transformational models, adaptive leadership stands out by fostering organizational change through participatory and resilient processes. The analysis of the Moldovan context reveals a dominant transactional leadership style in public administration, shaped by hierarchical structures, centralized decision-making, and a lack of incentives for innovation. The article argues that the promotion of adaptive leadership is crucial for strengthening democratic governance and aligning Moldova’s public sector with European standards.
Managementul proiectelor europene în instituțiile de învățământ superior din Republica Moldova: provocări și realizări [Articol]
(CEP USM, 2025) Budurina-Goreacii, Carolina
The management of European projects is vital for advancing higher education in the Republic of Moldova. Through active involvement in EU-funded programs like Erasmus+, Horizon 2020/Horizon Europe, and Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, Moldovan universities have modernized education, internationalized research, improved governance, and strengthened academic partnerships. Key achievements include aligning curricula with European standards, establishing centers of excellence, increasing academic mobility, and joining international research consortia.However, institutions still face challenges such as limited capacity, bureaucratic hurdles, insufficient co-financing, staff turnover, and lack of expertise in preparing competitive research proposals, especially under Horizon Europe. This article examines these issues through document analysis and case studies, focusing on the State University of Moldova. It explores how European funds have been accessed and managed, highlighting their positive impact on institutional development. The article concludes by recommending systemic measures to enhance project implementation and maximize the benefits of European cooperation for Moldova’s higher education sector.
Variaţii fenotipice la orzul de toamnă (M0) prin iradierea cu raze X şi stres hidric la stadiul de germinare [Articol]
(CEP USM, 2025) Grigorov, Tatiana
This study investigated the phenotypic variations in three winter barley varieties (Igri, Ciuluc, Strălucitor) and two hybrid lines (Ciuluc x Igri - 5As, Strălucitor x Igri - 9B). Seeds were subjected to various X-ray doses (200 Gy, 250 Gy) and 10% polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000) for drought stress, applied individually or in combination. During early development, im- portant indicators such as germination rate and plant viability were assessed, revealing a great impact of both X-rays and drought stress. Combined treatments often caused a more pronounced reduction, particularly in the Ciuluc x Igri hybrid. Notably, X-ray irradiation alone or combined with drought stress induced diverse phenotypic deviations across all genotypes. The spectrum of these deviations varied depending on the genotype and treatment. The combined application of X-rays and drought stress at the germination stage proved an effective strategy for inducing broad phenotypic variability in M0 barley, confirming the mutagenic potential of the applied treatments. These findings offer promising prospects for selecting new drought-tolerant forms in subsequent generations.
Strategii și mecanisme de sporire a credibilității instituțiilor publice în Republica Moldova [Articol]
(CEP USM, 2025) Bevziuc, Victoria; Cojocaru, Maria
Located on the border with the European Union, the Republic of Moldova has faced national security challenges since gaining independence. In recent years, however, these challenges have intensified and become more diverse: from external influence fueled by local political figures, to waves of narratives aimed at manipulating public opinion, vote-buying schemes, and cyber threats. These challenges have become more pronounced in the context of Russia's hybrid war in the region, internal political crises, and the country’s efforts to move closer to the European Union.
Cele mai răspândite specii de Trichogramma SPP. Colectate de la diferite culturi agricole în Republica Moldova [Articol]
(CEP USM, 2025) Gavriliţa, Lidia
Between 2022-2024, 38 exposures with small cards containing Sitotroga cerealella eggs were conducted to collect Trichogramma from the wild. The identified species were T. embryophagum, T. pintoi, T. evanescens, T. dendrolimi, and T. leucania. The parasitism percentage of moth eggs exposed in the field depended on weather conditions (temperature, humidity, etc.). The highest parasitism rates were observed in irrigated tomato crops, while extreme heat and low humidity negatively affected Trichogramma populations. Due to the naturally low parasitism rates, additional field releases of Trichogramma are necessary for effective biological protection of crops.The use of entomophages has several advantages, including reduced financial costs for crop protection, conservation of beneficial organisms, increased biological efficiency in the field, improved agricultural production, better food quality, and minimal reliance on chemical treatments, reducing environmental pollution.
