Abstract

Results of microbiological analysis of various elements of forest ecosystems (soil, litter, phyllosphere) of zones of active man-made (technogenous) influence demonstrate that microbial complexes serve as an instrument for diagnosis of the state and monitoring of a forest ecosystem. Fluctuations of the number of microorganisms, the scale of ETGM number, coefficients of microbiological activity, frequency of incidence of phytopathogenic fungi may be considered as convenient characteristics.
