Визначено рівні індивідуальної мінливості елементів технологічної якості коренеплодів у популяцій запилювачів урожайного і цукристого напрямів добору уладівської селекції. На основі генетично статистичних параметрів сформовано групу з кращих генотипів для подальшого селекційного опрацювання. Популяції У 1948-Z та У 752-E придатні для рекурентної селекції на покращання технологічної якості сировини.

The perspective hybrid forms between genus Prunus persica (L.) Batch and Prunus amygdalus Batsch, having high ornamental qualities and high resistance to Sphaerotheca pannosa (L v.) var. persicae Woronich., Taphrina deformans (Berk.) Tul., Clasterosporium carpophilum (L. v) Aderh., Monilia cinerea Bonord. have been obtained for using in breeding of peach and nectarine varieties and their rootstocks.

Complex assessment of varietal resources of the lettuce by means of identification of morphological descriptions and determination of indices of suitability for dissemination in Ukraine is considered. Contemporary classification by botanic and economic and consumption criteria of all the lettuce subspecies has been adapted.

Вивчено за 11 ознаками технологічної якості емпіричний розподіл частот генотипів, проведено його порівняння з кривою генетично статистичного розподілу. Виявлено наявність переважно правосторонньої асиметрії і позитивного ексцесу за більшістю ознак (вміст іонів Na+, α-N, доброякісність соку, втрата цукру в мелясі, вихід меляси, МВ-фактор) і лівосторонньої асиметрії за вмістом іонів K+ та сухої речовини. Відібрано рослини з популяцій цукристого У 1948-Z та урожайного У 752-Е типів для формування генетичних джерел ознак покращеної технологічної якості коренеплодів буряку цукрового.

The article describes summary of the researches, characteristics of morphological and agro-biological characteristics and features, a note is made of a significant progress in the selection of productivity and adaptability of registered Durum Winter Wheat Varieties of new crops rotation. Significant developments of plants architectonic are marked, especially in height, characteristics of economical value, and in terms of considerable achievements in breeding of this kind of wheat. A stress in made on the need to enhance Durum Winter Wheat breeding to develop more frostresistant and drought-overheat resistant varieties.

The article highlights Kharkiv Breeding Facility, later referred to as Plant Production Institute named after V. Iuryev in 20s-80s concerning breeding the Winter Wheat in Ukraine and impact of the varieties obtained on th productivity increase. It is established that thanks to the efforts of V. Iuryev, V. Didus, M. Ielnikov, A. Shulyndina and others for the period of 1920s-1980s a number of economically valuable varieties have been created – Multrum 120, Iuryivka, Lutetsnes 266, Zenitka, Salut, Kharkivska 1, Kharkivska 32, Khar-kivska 81 and others. Thanks to efforts in breeding the yield index was growing gradually and reached the average level of 4,3 tons per hectare. In particular, in 1921–1930 – 2,33 ton/hectare, 1931–1940 – 2,42, 1941– 1950 – 3,01, 1951–1960 – 26,5, 1961 – 1970 – 4,3, 1971–1980 – 5,05, 1981–1990 – 4,47 t/hectare. In recompense for significant achievements in agricultural crops varieties breeding a breeding center was founded at the facilities of Plant Production Institute named after V Iuryev was founded in 1976.

The pomological characteristic of three cherry-plum varieties belonged to different subspecies has been given. The prevailing aromatic components and general chemical content of their fruits have been analyzed. The peculiarities of accumulation of essential compounds in tissue with high anthocyanin content (‘Krasnomyasaya’) in comparison with varieties with yellow flesh (‘Nikitskaya Yellow’ and ‘Lyusha Yellow’) have been shown.

The article represents summary of post-registration examination of fruit crops, namely Apple and Pear in 2008s-2009s. Best varieties of Apple and Pear in different soil and climatic areas are highlighted.

Such varieties of winter wheat as Ovidium, Kokhana, Blago, Maria, Andromeda possess high adaptive potential, there are possible to use on irrigated and unirrigated lands. New genotypes are able to guarantee yield on level accordingly 9,0-9,5 and 5,5-6,0 t/ha. They are form the grain of strong and valuable wh eats.

National breeding achievements are described, in particular, of Winter Wheat. Scientific foundation of agricultural crops varietal sources is provided based on functional evaluation of the varieties, criteria for their breeding for specific agro-ecological growing conditions.
