ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS OF HABITATS OF ARTIFICIAL CENOPOPULATIONS OF RARE AND ENDANGERED PLANTS

Ecological analysis was performed for localities of Belarusian rare and endangered plant species created in the Central Botanical Garden of NAS of Belarus. Artificial cenopopulations of Astrantia major L., Allium ursinum L., Lunaria rediviva L., Hedera helix L. were analyzed in ecological space of the Central Botanical Garden by estimating ecological valence, tolerance and biocompatibility. Comparison between ecological amplitudes and optimums of species studied allows environmental stress points to be identified towards their ecomorphs.
