Our work is based on a digital database of specimens of the BOKU herbarium (WHB), which can be assigned to the Pannonian region of eastern Lower Austria. The complete dataset (n = 6655 specimens) was analyzed with the aid of statistical methods allowing computational elimination of collectors' effects (i.e. unbalanced collecting interests of collectors over time;multiple regression analysis, general linear model), from the first herbarium specimens (dating back to 1830) to the present. As a result, a significant decrease in the proportion of species of some habitats (above all water bodies and closely associated habitats, humid and wet meadows, fens and fen meadows, and nutrient poor grassland) was detected. For water-influenced habitats, this decrease correlates with the time of Danube regulation. Moreover, an increase in the proportion of species of ruderal sites was asserted during the observation period. The analysis procedure developed can be used for evaluation of major digitized herbaria in order to trace historical changes in species and habitat diversity.展开更多

At the same time, under the circumstance that the natural area is directly getting smaller, the necessity and relevance of the thesis work on the evaluation of species’ natural reserves and the evaluation of the modern situations are demonstrated through examples. The Surkhandarya region is considered to have the largest number of plant species in Uzbekistan, and it is also distinguished by the variety of species. According to the location of the botanical-geographical regions of Uzbekistan, the territory of the Surkhandarya region is divided into five botanical-geographical regions (BGR). The 5 × 5 km2 grid system map includes 882 cells. Surkhan-Sherabod (BGR), Baisun (BGR), Sangardak-Topalang (BGR), Babatag (BGR), and Kuhitang (BGR) corresponded to these. Simultaneously, the 5 × 5 km2 grid system map of Uzbekistan’s flora in the Surkhandarya region revealed the presence of F. tadshikorum in 109 indices. On the territory of the region, the botanic-geographic region mainly includes the F. tadshikorum, Babatag (BGR), Baisun (BGR), and Kohitang (BGR) indices. The natural resources of F. tadshikorum in these areas were also analyzed.展开更多

The urban flora of the city of Bukhara was researched in it. As a result of research, the territory of Bukhara city was divided into 85 indexes based on 1 × 1 km<sup>2</sup> grid mapping system. The diversity and density of species in the indexes are determined. The influence of anthropogenic factors on the diversity of species in the indexes is determined.展开更多
