High-mountain vegetation of North Asia: Dryad tundras

The main distribution patterns of dryad tundras in high-mountain regions, where they form a large cryophilic florocenotic system, have been studied. The cenoflora of dryad tundras comprises 286 species of vascular plants, among which there are several marker groups that indicate dryad tundras in gen...

Description
Summary:The main distribution patterns of dryad tundras in high-mountain regions, where they form a large cryophilic florocenotic system, have been studied. The cenoflora of dryad tundras comprises 286 species of vascular plants, among which there are several marker groups that indicate dryad tundras in general and their regional features in particular. These groups also reveal floristic connections with other phytocenotic systems that form a unified mountain-tundra complex.
