Current state of the cenopopulation of Adonis vernalis L. in the North Kazakhstan region

Abstract

Тhe current state of the cenopopulation of Adonis vernalis L. (Ranunculaceae), listed in the Red Data Book of Kazakhstan. A. vernalis is widespread in Europe and Asian countries, is widely used in folk medicine in Europe and China due to its cardiorespiratory properties. Studies were conducted to determine the biocenotic parameters of two cenopopopulations. The study showed that the gene pool of the studied populations is in good condition. The first cenopopulation (CP1) is dominated by Festuca valesiaca Gaudin, Lathyrus pisiformis L., projective coverage is 55-60%. The dominant species in the second cenopopulation (CP2) are Betula pendula Roth, Lathyrus pisiformis L., Rosa acicularis Lindl., projective coverage is 50%. The current population needs urgent conservation and restoration measures. This is due to the rapid decline of the resource. The study of the cenopopulations of this species allows to form a new idea about this species, lays the foundation for its further development.
