[en] Molybdenum monocrystal texture with crystallographic orientations of rod axes (112) and (100) after deformation in the range from 0 to 97% is investigated. A texture resulting from rotary swaging of molybdenum polycrystal rod with the same degrees of deformation is simultaneously studied. It is shown that the character of texture formation is different during rotary swaging of molybdenum monocrystals and polycrystals. For monocrystals it depends on the initial orientation. During rotary swaging of molybdenum polycrystal rod the total axial texture formation is observed under all deformation degrees, whereas in case of monocrystals under deformation more than 70%
