| Title : | INVENTORY AND BIOECOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OF DENDROLOGIC COLLECTION OF NIKITA BOTANICAL GARDENS |
| Abstract : | Nikita Botanical Gardens is the principal centre of introduction and plant mobilization, including ornamental arboreal plants. A rich collection of arboreal ornamental plants was created due to work of several generations of researchers in Nikita Botanical Gardens. Arboretum of Nikita Botanical Gardens was and remains the most important object of planting and introduction testing of arboreal plants within South Coast of the Crimea. Dendrology investigations on Nikita Botanical Gardens territory are characterized by their integration: introduction, study of adaptation mechanisms and plant ecological plasticity, pest-, disease- and human influence-resistance of arboreal plants and shrubs. In recent decades fundamental works on introduction and bioecological study of new species and forms of ornamental plants have gained a great importance in Nikita Botanical Gardens. Based on rich empiric material it permits to assess introduction capacity of cultivated plants, improve selection system and work out recommendations for ornamental plants in development of landscape. |
