In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there were analyzed the results of a collection study of plum (Prunus L.) dwarf rootstocks of different geographical origin. The economic and biological features (height, diameter, capability to form shoots, rootage) of 16 rootstocks were investigated. The increase of shoot growth strength and intensity was established on the second and third year of exploiting the rootstock nursery garden. The thinnest plum rootstock in the dwarf group was VSV-1 (on the average 7.1 mm), semi-dwarf- Vesenneye Plamya and Khumilis - 7.0 mm. According to the results the rootstocks VVA-1, VSV-1, Fortuna, Khumilis (Russia) were selected as the high productive (5.6-8.0 shoots per plant) and good rooting ability (2.7-3.8 points) in the nursery garden.
