Methodology of complex evaluation of Picea Dietr. species introduction success

Abstract

The methodology of comprehensive assessment of introduction success was modified, based on the analysis of scales developed by different authors and our own investigations. It would allow to determine differentially the potential use of induced exotic species of genus Picea for different purpose (decorative, protective plantations, plantation and forest crops creating). The scales proposed are based on stands evaluation by adaptability, decorative effect and productivity. Using the methodology of introduction success integrated assessment developed, the potential use of genus Picea species for different purposes stands creation in Sumy and Kharkiv regions was defined. Using the scale proposed it was determined, that P. abies, P. pungens, P. obovata, P. engelmanni, P. canadensis, P. schrenkiana are appropriate to use in Sumy and Kharkiv regions for the decorative stands creation. P. orientalis was not very promising for planting of greenery. For creation of recreational health-improving stands and protective forests in proper growth conditions it is recommended to use P. pungens, P. engelmanni, P. canadensis.
