The analysis of the morphological diversity of Rosa alberti Regel. Serves as a crucial tool for
studying its adaptive mechanisms under changing environmental conditions. This research,
conducted at the Main Botanical Garden, employed field, laboratory, and biochemical methods to
assess the morphological variability and metabolic activity of the plant.
Biochemical studies included an analysis of antioxidant compounds, flavonoids, carotenoids,
and ascorbic acid, allowing for an in-depth investigation of the adaptive strategies of Rosa alberti
across various ecological conditions. The research hypothesis posits that biochemical changes,
alongside morphological traits, play a key role in the plant’s adaptation to external stress factors.
The results revealed significant morphological and biochemical diversity in Rosa alberti,
confirming its high ecological plasticity. The identified resilient phenotypes hold potential for use in
plant breeding and landscaping, as well as in pharmacology due to their high content of biologically
active compounds.
Furthermore, an analysis of soil and climatic conditions demonstrated the species’ resilience to
drought and abrupt temperature fluctuations. This makes it a promising candidate for cultivation in
extreme agricultural environments. The practical applications of this study extend to ecosystem
management and biodiversity conservation, which is particularly relevant in the context of
anthropogenic impact and climate change.
