Abstract

The review analyzes the relationship between the evolution of the formation of representatives of the genus Populus and resistance to diseases and the complex of pests. The introduction of various poplar species and their hybrids in Europe is associated with the use of their wood due to the low density and thermal conductivity, which is almost twice lower than the values established for oak, beech or hornbeam. Poplar wood has found wide application as construction and fuel materials. Poplar genus (Populus L.) is widely used for landscaping settlements and creating protective plantings. The widespread distribution of poplars and their hybrids is limited by their instability to various diseases and pests. There are interspecific differences in resistance to diseases and the action of pests in representatives of the genus Populus due to the peculiarities of evolution and the appearance of several properties in representatives of this genus that contribute to resistance to fungal diseases and the effects of various insects.
