Abstract

Specific features of root system formation in the main forest-forming species have been studied under conditions of natural regeneration or planting on large cinder dumps of district heat and power plants in the Middle Urals. Prospects for using these species for biological (forest) recultivation of cinder dumps are evaluated.
