Abstract. Research carried out in the direction of the fundamentals of the selection process of the creation of new plant genotypes with high economic valuable signs of productivity, resistance to bio and Austrasia. According to the results of competitive testing of varieties and forms of plum selection Sverdlovsk breeding station horticulture – a structural unit of the Ural Federal Agrarian Research Center of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and introduced varieties of plum on a complex of economic and useful features (winter hardiness, productivity, early maturation, taste qualities) allocated chinese plum variety “Uralskie zori”, breeding Sverdlovsk breeding station horticulture. The morphological, biological and economic characteristics of the new plum variety are given. The fruits of early ripening, weighing 25-30 g, dark red. The flesh is tender, juicy, very good sweet and sour taste. Fruits contain: dry soluble substance – 16,0 %, sugar – 9,39 %, acid – 1,54 %, vitamin C – 52,8 mg%. Fruit ripening early: the third decade of July – the beginning of August. Fruiting is good, 6 years of age were harvested 128,0 kg/ha. The supply area is 5×3 m. the Variety of multi-purpose. The trees are medium-sized, highly resistant. Basic teaching AIDS for the study was: the Program and methods of breeding and variety investigation of fruit, berry and nut crops [6, 7]; Pomologia. Volume III. Stone cultures [8]. The variety “Uralskie zori” in 2018 is accepted in the State variety test and is recommended to the Chelyabinsk GSU in the State register of selection achievements allowed to use on the Ural region.
