ANALYSIS OF MACRO AND MICRO ELEMENTS IN THE NITRARIA SCHOBERI PLANT DISTRIBUTED IN THE ARID SOUTHERN REGIONS OF THE ARAL SEA

Abstract

Given the high content of salt in the soil around the Aral Sea, not only the ecological groups of promising plant species distributed in the region, but also the amount of chemical elements in them were studied. As a result of the study, for the first time, the amount of 38 chemical elements in the vegetative and generative organs of 24 plant species belonging to different systematic units distributed in the arid southern regions of the Aral Sea was determined.In recent years, during eco-geo-botanical expeditions in the Southern Aral Sea region, it was observed that the plant populations of Nitraria schoberi L., which are distributed in this area, are adapting to the external environment. Observations have shown that plant growth, development, flowering and fruit production are significantly accelerated.Scientific sources state that most species of the family Nitrariaceae contain peptides, proteins, alkaloids, aminocystates, vitamins and many other biologically active substances.
