The wide geographical and ecological distribution of aspens (Populus tremula L.) indicates its high adaptive potential. The ISSR-analysis of DNA polymorphisms in seven natural populations of Populus tremula L. (in the Perm region) was performed. Total of 119 bands were obtained of which 87 (73.1 %) were polymorphic. Seven natural populations of P. tremula possess different levels of genetic diversity, and there was a high level of genetic differentiation between the populations (GST = 0,550). The results of the study are promising for development of further programs of cultivation and preservation of valuable deciduous tree species.
