On the large-scale introduction of polyploid forms of Robinia pseudoacacia L. in the steppe zone as a promising area of scientific research

Based on the threats that arise for the native flora as a result of the invasion of some introduced spe-cies, the authors propose to consider the introduction of polyploid forms of robinia in steppe areas as an alternative to the existing robinia plantings. The main methods of obtaining and scaling polyploid forms of robinia, tested by the world scientific community in recent years, are given.
