[Methods for sea buckthorn propagation]

Methods for sea-buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) are submitted. The sea-buckthorn gets wide application to gardening of many countries in the world. Reproduction and efficiency of sea-buckthorn plantations as well as other plants are determined by a significant amount of quality planting stock. Distribution of this plant is impossible without the development of industrial methods for stock production. The sea-buckthorn is propagated by seeds, grafting, root suckers, air layers, hardwood and softwood cuttings, as well as by the micropropagation. The softwood and hardwood cuttings are used for propagation at industrial scale. At seed propagation the important high-quality signs are not kept, therefore for production of a landing material for a seting of commodity plants this way of propagation is not used. The way is used in selection and for reception of a landing material for creation of protective strips. Propagation of sea-buckthorn berries by an inoculation and air cuttings as industrial ways is inexpedient from the economic point of view (high expenses for cultivation of stocks, removal of low-vareties root young growth, labour input). Research on development of duplication of sea-buckthorn berries vertical cuttings and cultivation of a landing material with the closed root system are necessary. It is necessary to apply propagation to industrial cultivation of sea-buckthorn hardwood berries or green slips which provides reception genetically homogeneous seedlings, keeping a high-quality accessory and to the economic valuable signs are not differ from parent plants. Within the limits of research on perfection of technology of propagation by green and hardwood slips it is necessary to specify: - terms of preparation hardwood slips; ways of soil mulching in nursery; length of green and hardwood slips; new kinds of mineral fertilizers, including for not root entering. It is necessary to define the most economically effective way of industrial propaation of sea-buckthorn berries in view of specificity sortment and soil-climatic conditions of Belarus
