Abstract

The aim. To give a brief literature review of the biological features of Viscum album L., transpiration of these plants, features of the systematic situation, distribution in the world. There was determined the distribution and general trends of the semi-parasite plant on the territory of the National Botanical Garden named after M. M. Grishka NAS of Ukraine.

Materials and methods. The research was conducted on the territory of the National Botanical Garden named after M. M. Grishka NAS of Ukraine. Visual inspection of trees and bushes for Viscum album L. was carried out, their location was determined, followed by presentation of the results on the map of the botanical garden. The degree of damage to host plants was determined.

Results. The map of the National Botanical Garden (NBG) named after M. M. Grishka of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine with the affected plants marked on it, is presented. A generalized list of host plants inhabited by Viscum album L. on the territory of the NBS has been compiled. The most affected plants were identified and found to belong to 7 orders of magnitude.

Conclusions. The total number (50) of plants introduced to the NBG, on which Viscum album settles, as well as the areas with the largest number of affected plants were determined. For the results of the study, we examined the V. album, which is supported to the following files Fabales, Fagales, Lamiales, Malpighiales, Malvales, Rosales and Sapindales. Identified a larger number of affected semi-parasites of cultivation - Robinia pseudoacacia, which has many plants in the NBG.
