During 2009-2010 in the 15-km area around the Kola Nuclear Power Plant, there were studied bilberry-bush geo-botanical, morphological and physiological characteristics. In conditions of an insignificant (within the natural values) increase of background X-radiation, there have been revealed at least three types of adaptive mechanisms directed to decrease of radionuclides absorption by plant tissues thorough activation or inhibition of growth and development processes. The data obtained are under discussion concerning non-specific stress mechanisms
