This article examines the microscopic structural features of some species of the Tamarix L.
genus growing in the Kerbulak Gorge. The relevance of the study is determined by the arid and
saline soils of the region, which require studying the mechanisms of adaptation of these plants to
extreme environmental conditions. Tamarix L. species play an important role in combating soil
salinization, preventing erosion, and stabilizing natural ecosystems. Additionally, studying the
microscopic structure of these plants helps to better understand their physiological adaptation
mechanisms. Such studies not only reveal how plants respond to environmental factors, but also
open opportunities for their effective use in environmental and agronomic purposes.
In the course of the study, anatomical characteristics of the leaf, stem, and root tissues of the
plants were identified. The results of microscopic studies revealed the main morphological features
that provide the resistance of these plants to drought and salinization. The use of light and electron
microscopy methods allowed a detailed study of the cellular structure of Tamarix L. and
determination of their ecological adaptation mechanisms.
The obtained results contribute to a deeper understanding of the adaptability of these plants to
their environment and their effective use in environmental protection, combating desertification,
and soil salinization. Moreover, these data open new prospects in plant breeding and biotechnology.
Thus, the results of this study can serve as a basis for future scientific work aimed at improving the
adaptive capabilities of plants. Due to the dry and saline soils of the region, it is necessary to study
the adaptation features of these plants to extreme ecological conditions. The obtained results will
help to better understand the adaptation features of Tamarix L. plants to the environment and
effectively utilize them in nature conservation, combating desertification, and soil salinization.
Furthermore, these data will contribute to opening new perspectives in the fields of plant breeding
and biotechnology.
