The purposes of the research conducted in 1984-2007 in the Institute for Fruit Growing were: to select seabuckthorn cultivars suitable for growing in Belarus and using them as an initial material; to create hybrid fund and domestic cultivars combining high productivity, good taste qualities and a complex of characters, determining suitability for machine harvesting and male cultivars. The research was carried out according to internationally adopted and acknowledged methods and standards. 54 combinations of cross-breeding were carried out. About 50 foreign cultivars were estimated and the cultivars ‘Podarok Sadu’, ‘Botanicheskaya’, ‘Trophimovskaya’, ‘Nivelena’ were passed to the State Variety Trial and included in the State Register, 22 cultivars and 5 hybrids were selected as initial material. The examination of wild seabuckthorn plantations at the territory of South Warmia was carried out and 7 forms were selected. About 30 thousands of seedlings were received from singleminded hybridization and open pollination. In 2005 winterhardy male cultivar ‘Gaspadar’ was recommended for the State Variety Trial. In 2007 the new cultivar ‘Plamennaya’, created in collaboration with the Russian scientists, was included to the State Variety Trial. The variety is characterized by high productivity (17 t/ha at planting scheme 4х2 m), large fruit (average mass 0.8 g), and valuable chemical composition of fruits. 4 promising hybrids of own breeding (10-02- 01-98, 14-24/99, 03-22-00, 06-40-00) were selected for the further research.
