Abstract

Trees of the genius Picea abies Dietr. are widely used in urban greening and landscaping. Spruce is one of the main forest-forming species in Russia and the whole world. Successful adaptive selection of trees requires scientific knowledge about each species ecological and physiological states. In the study we had investigated 13 species and forms of spruce introduced to the conditions of Nizhny Novgorod region. All the plants are placed within picetum of Botanical garden of Lobachevsky State University in Nizhny Novgorod. Spasticity of the species in starch and fats content, level of xylem development and its degree of delignification was studied with the use of traditional methods of histochemical analysis. Statistical, variance, factor and cluster analysis were performed. Visible heterogeneity of the studied composition of spruce species according to parameters of their physiological state was found. Significance and statistical validity of the recorded differences were confirmed. Factor analysis allowed presentation of 16 test parameters of plants physiological state by 4 principal components performed as independent comprehensive factors of their differentiation. Cluster analysis based on rated values of initial characteristics and with the use of principal components allowed grouping of the studied species according to their statistical proximity in Euclidean space. Dendrograms constructed for each of these algorithmic schemes had fundamental similarities. Proximity of the exotic species characteristics to the native species P. abies characteristics determined the degree of their compliance with environmental background of the introduction area. Ranking of the considered species according to their remoteness from European spruce allowed assigning to each of the exotic species a rank of compliance of the native species.
