Caryological and physiological features of rare species Potentilla porphyrantha Juz. were investigated. It was shown that this species is diploid with 2n = 14 (x = 7). Physiological investigation included study of water regime, intensity of transpiration and photosynthesis. It was shown, that this s...

Description
Summary:Caryological and physiological features of rare species Potentilla porphyrantha Juz. were investigated. It was shown that this species is diploid with 2n = 14 (x = 7). Physiological investigation included study of water regime, intensity of transpiration and photosynthesis. It was shown, that this species growing in-situ conditions on Amulsar Mountain (2900 m a.s.l.) now is very good adapted to ex-situ conditions in the Sevan botanical garden (1900 m a.s.l.). It grows very well, bloom and produce viable seeds, and in the future could be reintroduced into nature.
