The paper presents the results of a comprehensive assessment of the viability and decorativeness of 20 samples of 17 taxa of the genus Crataegus L. when introduced into the Kola North. The study is one of the stages of a systematic description of the adaptive state of plants of the genus Crataegus when introduced into the conditions of the Far North. The main part of the studied samples are highly decorative quite viable plants that have high winter hardiness, maintain their growth shape, are able to produce germinating seeds, and have attractive inflorescences and fruits. C. chlorosarca, C. chlorosarca f. pyramidalica, C. cuneata, C. dahurica, C. douglasii, C. flabellata, C. laevigata, C. maximoviczii, C. pinnatifida, C. sanguinea, C. x schroederi. C. arnoldiana, C. canadensis and C. foetida are nonviable and undecorative plants. For the introduction of promising species of the genus Crataegus into the landscaping of cities of the Kola Peninsula, preliminary testing is required. Maintaining a highly decorative state is possible while observing the care of woody plants.

Due to the deterioration of the environmental situation, the requirements for the assortment of woody plants for landscaping territories for various purposes are constantly growing. To form a stable assortment of woody plants with the specified characteristics, it is necessary to use introduced species in the breeding process. The genetic collection of the VNIISPK Arboretum includes more than 310 species, forms and varieties of woody plants, including the Anacardiaceae family R.Br. All representatives of this family are introduced species, one of which is Cotinus coggygria. The purpose of the research is a comprehensive assessment of the ecological and biological features of Cotinus coggygria and its varieties to justify the use in breeding to obtain varieties with economically valuable traits in the conditions of the Central part of Russia. According to the research results, the most promising for use in breeding in order to obtain new varieties is C. coggygria cv. ‘Follis Purpureis’, which has a number of economically valuable features: winter hardiness, resistance to diseases and pests, complex of decorative qualities. C. coggygria cv. ‘Royal Purple’ can only be used as a source of resistance to diseases and pests and decorative coloring of leaves.

Selection and introduction of a new high-quality range of plants that can grow in modern conditions is the main goal of studying plants in the genetic collection of the arboretum of the Russian Research Institute of Fruit Crop Breeding (VNIISPK), which includes more than 300 species, forms and varieties of woody plants. The class of coniferous plants, which makes up 25% of the total number of taxa, is represented by three families and nine genera, one of which is Picea A. Dietr. The analysis of ecological and biological features was carried out for 10 native and introduced plant species of this genus in the collection of the VNIISPK arboretum. All the studied species and forms had high winter hardiness, with the exception of Picea omorica (Pancic) Purcyne. With the loss of decorativeness, the Picea canadensis Britt was damaged by pests; Picea omorica (Pancic) Purcyne. was affected by diseases. Two highly decorative genotypes that are resistant to a complex of adverse environmental factors have been identified for use in landscaping of objects of various purposes in the Orel region: P. abies f. cristata (L.) H. Karst and P. pungens f. glauca Reg. For landscape gardens and parks, it is also recommended to use the P. abies f. virgata (Jacq.) Casp.

SynopsisThe construction of a short self-report questionnaire identifying social problems, difficulties and dissatisfactions is described. The questionnaire covers housing, occupation, finance, social and leisure activities, child—parent and marital relationships, relationships with relatives, friends, neighbours and workmates, and legal problems. Results of a preliminary testing in a general practice are provided and discussed, and plans for a more comprehensive assessment are outlined.

A study of the Sami burials on the territory of the Kolsky Bay was launched in 1976. All the material dates back to the 19th – the beginning of the 20th century. Collected skulls of 74 males and 51 females were compiled. We have investigated all the available material in the storage skulls. A homogeneity group analysis was conducted.Sami males from the settlement of Yoakanga and Chalmnu-Varre vary by range of facial skeleton forming parameters. Sami females from the settlement Yoakanga and Chalmnu-Varre vary by facial skeleton widths. Based on the characters of lifetime body length and the proportion indexes of extremities, the Sami are the most adaptable to living conditions of the Far North.

The analysis and selection of modern methods of introduction prediction was carried out to create a promising list of woody plants of the North America site in the Astana Botanical Garden in Nur-Sultan. Using a system-arealogical approach and interpolation forecasting, botanical nurseries were selected – they are donors of generative and planting material to be included in the collection. 33 taxa or 45% of plants corresponding to winter hardiness in the natural area of the climatic zone of Nur-Sultan were selected using the method of climatic analogues of Mayer and winter hardiness zones. The methodology we chose allowed us to expand by 55% the list of plants that have higher winter hardiness in the cultivated area than in the natural one. A promising list of 80 taxa from 19 families and 34 genera has been compiled.
