State of Medicago falcata L. coenopopulations in cryolitozone conditions: self-maintenance processes, age structure and number

Article is continuation of the publications devoted to assessment the state of Medicago falcate L. coenopopulations (CP), growing in Yakutia. The age structure of populations, self-maintenance processes are considered. It is established that low indexes of restoration indicate difficulties of self-maintenance processes. The majority of CP are young. Integrated assessment of Medicago falcate L. CP state on set of organismal and population signs revealed that the best development of organismal (2,7) signs characterizes the CP 5, and population (3,5) CP 2.
