Abstract

Polymorphism of the main morphological characteristics used in species diagnostics was studied at the northern limits of Siberian spruce (Picea obovata Ledeb.) habitation. The analysis of population structure was performed. The results were compared with the characteristics of spruces from the central regions of the area. The data obtained permit making the conclusions about population structure and a pattern of Siberian spruce variation within the area.
