Comparative analysis of the leaf structure of Ferula karelinii Bunge (Apiaceae Lindl.) under different edaphic and climatic conditions of Uzbekistan

The article presents the results of the study of the leaves’ anatomical structure of Ferula karelinii Bunge in two climatic zones. In the comparative aspect, the mechanism of adaptation of species to arid habitat conditions has been revealed. The obtained data indicate that plants growing in more harsh conditions of the Ustyurt Plateau, in gypsum-bearing soils, shows more xeromorphic characters. Plants growing in Southwestern Kyzylkum, in sandy soils, have more mesomorphic signs. The results of the study give an idea of the plasticity degree of a particular characteristic of the vegetative organs of species from the genus Ferula L.
