Welcome!
No, fingercharts for G and low G are not exactly the same. Low G has 7 holes, not only 6, therefore the right hand (the lowest one) is similar to 8 holes G xiao's one (you can play natural F, not only F#). The left hand (highest) is the same than 6 holes G dizi's one.
For transposition, I don't understand exactly your question. Chinese flutists prefer to use the flute in the appropriate tune than to transpose, but some transpositions - limited, but anyway - are possible.
If you have some other questions, feel free to ask!

Welcome to the forum, andrey77. My low G dizi has seven holes, so the fingering is a bit different from the G dizi an octive higher which has six finger holes. In general though, it is best to consider any fingering charts you find for dizi a good starting point. You might have to adjust the fingering for particular notes, especially in the higher octaves.
It is reasonable to play a tune on whatever key of dizi you want. If you are playing in an ensemble, it is necessary for everyone to agree on the key. Usually if you are playing in the key of G, you will need a "G" dizi. Sometimes you can use a "C" dizi to play in the key of G, but that depends on the tune. I think it would be a challenge to play either an "A" or "D" dizi in the key of G. You can play a "G" in either G or D.
If you are using jianpu notation it is very simple to change keys. To play in G on a "C" dizi, cover all six holes for note 1 rather than just the left hand holes. If you are using staff notation, you may need to transpose the score to whatever key makes the right pitches for the dizi you are using.
I find it a lot easier to simply have a dizi for each key that I need to play in, and use jianpu notation.
Best wishes,
David

Flolei, davidmdahl, thanks for help))
Position of the fingers in G different from the low G, but what about the notes? I mean, that any song for G can be played on low G?
I want to learn to play some low dizi. I play the recorder. But I have a problem with the English language and it's difficult to find information on the Internet. I could not find any sheet music for low dizi. If someone has the sheet music for low dizi, can pass in skype? or still somehow?
