A modern classification of pastures in Karakalpak Ustyurt has been developed, which combines 7 pasture types (Anabasis salsa, Salsola arbusculiformis-Anabasis Artemisia terrae-albae-Anabasis Haloxylon ammodendron, Tamarix hispida-T. elongata, Kalidium caspicum, Halocnemum strobilaceum), 2 classes (pastures stratal plains on gray-brown soils and drainless depressions solonchaks) 42 varieties, a ...

Reported researches dealing with either composition or bioactivity of Salsola imbricata are limited. This study was conducted aiming to investigate the phenolic composition of the plant and evaluate its efficacy as male contraceptive. Polyphenols, namely, phenolic acids and flavonoids, were qualitatively and quantitatively analysed by RP-HPLC in the hydrolysed methanol extract using two differe...

Halophytes, gypsicoles and serpentinicoles are adapted to specialized edaphic conditions at arid semi-arid regions. These areas possess physical chemical stress factors for all plants. For these plants, one of the most important parameter that provides tolerance is proline accumulation. Proline a water-soluble amino acid generally accumulated under behave like an indicator adaptation plants aga...
