BIOLOGICAL FEATURES OF SOME EASTERN ASIAN PLANTS UNDER INTRODUCTION IN THE SOUTH OF PRIMORSKY KRAI
06.01.01 General agriculture, crop production (agricultural sciences)
Description
The article summarizes the results of long-term cultivation of east-asian plants in the arboretum of the Gornotayezhnaya Station of the FEB RAS. For the most resistant and decorative species we have indicated: degree of winter resistance, shoot formation and perspective group. Regeneration of the vegetative mass in introduced trees and shrubs after severe damage by low temperatures depends on the spawning capacity of plants. In each species, the degree of shoot formation is its biological feature and can vary greatly in different plant species. The most east-asian species have a high or medium degree of shoot formation, good indicators of winter resistance and of generative development (bloom, fruiting). The tested east-asian species of plants are characterized by high adaptive potential, which makes it possible to recommend them to a wide culture in the southern Primorye. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the introduction stability of east-asian plants in the conditions of the southern Primorye. Тhe method of the integral assessment of the viability and perspective of introduction on the basis of visual observations, developed in the department of dendrology of the GBS, P.I. Lapin and S.V. Sidneva, was used to determine the perspective groups of the introduced species

Description
In the article, we discuss some of the causes of plant death during the introduction in the south of Primorsky Krai. Introduction studies involving a large number of plant species always have not only positive, but also negative results. According to the results of long-term observations, factors affecting the longevity of plants in the arboretum collection of Gornotayezhnaya station of the FEB RAS are indicated. Regular inventories and annual observations of introduced species in the arboretum of Gornotayezhnaya station of the FEB RAS allowed us to identify the reasons of the decline of introduced species from the arboretum collection: low winter hardiness, fragility, inhibition of plants in thickened planting and due to shading, mismatch of environmental factors, insufficient care, damage to animals. It has been established that for the purpose of the initial selection of new species for introduction research, it is possible to use climatic zoning according to Reder. Analyzing the species belonging to a certain temperature zone and the reason of the decline, it can be conclude that the species belonging to I-III zones in the conditions of the southern Primorye acclimatize quite successfully with good care and a properly selected landing site. Plant species belonging to the IV-V zones need protection from low temperatures at a young age, and some in adulthood. The temperature zones VI and VII are critical for successful acclimatization, so the species belonging to these zones require special attention and careful selection of the place of growth
