Abstract
The paper presents the results of activity on conservation and preservation of genetic resources of European Black Poplar (Populus nigra) and poplars from section Leuce. The poplar species are endangered species due to absence of suitable sites, absence of natural settings, and also due to their susceptibility on cortical and leaf diseasess.
