The Population Ecology of Gentiana oschtenica (Kusn.) Woronow in the Highlands of the Republic of Adygea

Abstract

The article presents the results of the study of the ecology of Gentiana oschtenica by population-ontogenetic methods. Most coenopopulations have normal ontogenetic right-sided spectra with a maximum on the group of virginile or generative individuals. The state of coenopopulations is pessimal. The level of the ecological and geographical variability is significantly lower than the level of the intrapopulation variability. The data on the variability of morpho-parameters support the species independence of G. oschtenica.

Paeonia caucasica (Schipcz.) Schipcz. in phytocenoses of the Republic of Adygea

“…The geographical position of the Republic has resulted in the presence of several geographical zones and vertical vegetation belts, significant landscape, phytocenotic and floristic diversity, as well as a high level of endemism and relict flora on its territory (Shadge et al 2019, Sirotyuk 2019.
