Step by step results of many year researches of clonal selection of grape varieties: Clairette white, Saperavi, Sauvignon white and Chardonnay, growing in the Ltd company “ Pobeda” of Temryk district of Krasnodar region are cited in the article. Highly productive
proto clones were selected. Clairette white
is the best one as a variety from them and it was
given to the state experiment under the name
Clairette temryk.
In the article the color photos of 111 temporarily allowed grades of grapes having outstanding characteristics, basically, for their effective use in amateur winegrowing of Russia are presented. They are actively involved by selectors as initial forms
Grape variety assembly lines by zones of Krasnodar region worked out by the staff of the chair of grape growing on the basis of many years data and with
an account of really existing areas of every variety
by the end of 2007 have been presented in this article.
Assembly lines allow to plan more balanced entering of grape production to the processing enterprises
or to a consumer market.

In this article color photos of 66 mass-production grades which have been removed from division into districts and/or excluded from the State registry of grapes of the Russian Federation as conceded to more competitive on adaptability and profitability, and also of phenotypes removed from the State test are presented. The number of mass-production grades has reached 460 for today. Although the term of "mass-production" grades is not very good, but in wine growing it has appeared to be comprehensible enough and clear to experts for a long time
The article shows the results of the impact of foliar nutrition on crop and product quality of the Grenny Smith apples. Also the impact of the agricultural practices to fruits saving ability is discussed, as well as their quality in terms of sugars, acids and vitamin C. It was found that the use of 3-fold foliar nutrition feeding with nitroammofoska impacts positively on the results of storage.
Problems of biometric evaluation of morphological features of clones for identification of variety group Merlo genotypes were considered in the paper.
Results of reconstruction of a spare of mixed plantings after utter chopping by means of standards, formed by miscellaneous authors are presented in the article. The possibility of using used and newly designed tables is noted
Data of many year researches on influence of cultivation methods ( main soil cultivation, fertilizers, irrigation methods) on physicochemical properties
of common black soil, growth, development, crop productivity, their economical and energetic effectiveness in the conditions of arid steppe zone
of Rostov region were positioned in the article.
