Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the morphological characteristics of onecomponent terms that are part of the terminology of biotechnology. The most productive methods of term formation, as well as their structural types, are determined. Morphological ways of formation of one-component terms of biotechnology in English are described. Based on the analysis of existing forms of single-component terms, the most productive methods and models for their formation by an affix method using a large number of Latin and Greek elements are established. The use of new derivational elements based on Latin and Greek root bases as a means of enriching English biotechnological terminology is considered.
