In the modern wine growing for fight against a root phylloxera an inoculation of European-Asian grapes varieties on rootstocks steady against this wrecker is using. In this article the information is presented what types of rootstocks of domestic and foreign breeding are used in the modern branch of wine growing. The area of their use is described, the useful properties of rootstocks and their demerits are described. The purpose of this work is creating of new grapes rootstocks which wouldn't have the merits of existing rootstocks. The short description of the grapes rootstocks of breeding of the Anapa's Zonal Experimental Station of wine growing and winemaking as AZOS-1, AZOS-2, AZOS-3, AZOS-4, AZOS-5 and AZOS-6 is given in the article. It is indicated that these rootstocks have a high resistance to a leaf form of phylloxera, to chlorosis and to some other diseases of a grapes bush. They have the short period of vegetation, a high quantity of standard cutting from hectare and other useful properties. In the article the description of a new formation of rootstocks grapes bushes of "AOS-1" with a free trail shoots is given. This construction of grapes bush is developed by the Anapa's Zonal Experimental Station of wine growing and winemaking. It is also given all advantages of this forming in comparison with other designs of grapes bushes. It is especially noted that use of this forming of bushes increases the productivity per men in the process of bushes scrap and preparation of cutting; the expenditures on the struggle against diseases and wreckers on the vineyards are reduced; the quantity standard of grapes cutting increases by 27-33%.
