As a result of inventory and detailed investigation of forestry, forest taxation, selection, genetic parameters of trees in the forest genetic reserves (FGR) of pedunculate and sessile oak in the western region of Ukraine their multifactorial functionality indexes were determined. Recommendations on improve structural and spatial organization have been made for oak genetic reserve. For each FGR the management options were proposed, that will keep (improve) long-term ability to serve as a object of valuable gene pool. Forest types for selection of new oak genetic reserve were determined.
