The article presents data on morpho-phenological, karyological, palynological, some eco-physiological and ornamental features of the Armenian flora endangered species Amberboa moschata (L.) DC. (Asteraceae). According to conducted exploration, plants cultivated in Yerevan Botanical Garden have satisfactory adaptive capacity, a complete development cycle, ability form mature seeds self-renewal by seeds, higher parameters total moisture, transpiration intensity photosynthesis compared natural...
Vavilovia formosa is a relict, endangered species from the highlands of Caucasus and Near East. Described in 1812, it has had an uncertain status was finally recognized as separate genus tribe Fabeae (Fabaceae). Our informal international group established 2007 to revive interest this been seriously neglected for decades. Here, we provide overview accumulated knowledge on V. present results most recent multidisciplinary research. Three expeditions were made two locations Armenia 2009,...
Abstract With approximately 25 endemic species, the genus Pyrus (pears) is highly diverse in Caucasus ecoregion. The majority of Caucasian pears inhabit xerophytic open woodlands or similar habitats, to which they display morphological adaptations, such as narrow leaves. other both and non‐Caucasian taxa, mainly mesophytic forests broad Using a representative taxon sampling from Caucasus, Europe Asia, we reconstruct phylogenetic relationships based on multiple plastid regions. We also...

Abstract For the first time imprints of fossil fruits Salsola L. s.l. and Halanthium K.Koch (Chenopodiaceae, Salsoloideae,) are reported from territory Armenia, latter being record Southwest Asian genus worldwide. They were collected fluvio‐lacustrine diatomite layers Lower Pleistocene (Sisian series) in upper‐middle Vorotan river valley recently dated at 1.4–0.935 my (Early Pleistocene). The fossils described, figured compared with recent relatives. Due to poor preservation, identity fruit...

Taxonomically, it belongs to Prunus × dasycarpa Ehrh., a spontaneous hybrid of and cherry plum ( P. armeniaca L. cerasifera Ehrh.). Currently, considered be very rare Armenia occurs as single trees home orchards the Ararat Valley. It characterised by high frost disease resistance, late flowering fruiting compared with other apricots, interest for development...
