The article discusses the assessment of leaf variability in the geographical cultures of the sweet cherry oak in the Krasnoye forestry of the Voronezh region. The assessment of 23 indicators reflecting the leaf shape diversity among the ecotypes showed significant differences in the values of fluctuating asymmetry. There is a similar dynamic of low values of asymmetry along the length of the leaf up to the fifth lobe, and the width from the central vein to the third and fourth order lobes. The angle of deviation from the central vein of the first, second, and third order shows a gradual decrease in asymmetry. The high values of fluctuating asymmetry indicate a pronounced effect of climatic factors on certain ecotypes.
