EFFECT OF MICROELEMENTS ON THE DYNAMICS OF POLYSACCHARIDES IN REPRODUCTION OF WOODY PLANTS OF GREEN STALKS
The study on the technology of reproduction of woody plants by the method of green cuttings in the specific conditions of the Southern Primorsky Krai has showed that the treatment of cuttings with solutions of low concentrations of microelements effects the increase in the accumulation of sucrose. The highest sugar content (3.30%) is characteristic of boron in the concentration of 0.0001%, and zinc - 0.001%. The influence of microelements causes more intense process of accumulation of starch, which is beneficial to the shoots maturing. The maximum content of starch (7.4%) was observed in cuttings treated in the middle of October with the solution of Mn in the concentration of 0.001%. The starch accumulation in the untreated cuttings continued until the end of October.
