THE RESULTS OF INTRODUCTION OF SUBTROPICAL, SOUTHERN FRUIT AND FLOWER-ORNAMENTAL CROPS IN FRC SSC OF RAS

The paper presents the results of research carried out in the Federal Research Centre the Subtropical Scientific Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences on such themes as mobilization, preservation and study of genetic bioresource collections. The gene resource collection of subtropical, southern fruit and flower-ornamental crops has been preserved in the amount of 2 650 cultivars. As a result of the research carried out in 2020 on various collections of fruit crops, the groups were identified by ripening periods. Flower-ornamental crops are presented in a generic and specific section, grouped by flowering terms and flower colour. Solving the given tasks will enable the further development of domestic horticulture and floriculture, as well as will expand the issues of food security and import substitution.
