minimal territorial unit is regional (oblast) arable territories, which were selected by arable map, generalized to scale 20 000 000.

The projection:

"Alber's Equal Area Conic for Russia", 9, 1001, 7, 100, 0, 44, 68, 0, 0

Basic contents:

Vector maps: Areas of possible cultivation are represented by polygons. Places located far from general area are represented by points.

Accuracy of the qualifier:

Maps were created on the base of generalized information about species distribution from published sourses (accuracy till regions).

The technique of drawing up of a map:

Area map was made on the base of literature data (State., 1994, 2006). On the territory of the former USSR area covers territories of Nechernozem'e, Central-Chernozem region, Siberia, Ukraine, Belarus', Moldova, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Ural, Georgia, and Altai (Bahteev, 1970; Yaroslavtsev, 1987; Kazakov, 1994). Main regions of cultivation are situated in West Siberia (Diakonova, 1980). Besides raspberry is cultivated in favourable for it regions of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kirgizia (Vitkovskii, 2003). Point area was created on the base of botanical gardens and fruit-berries nurseries data ( http://garden.karelia.ru/ ).
