Description

The object of the study is the variability of plants and fungi morphological and physiological parameters. The work aims to establish the spatial and temporal variation patterns of the model plants and fungi species morphological and physiological characteristics in the biotopes of Kyiv. Research methods — fieldwork, geobotanical, anatomical, genetic, dendrochronological, spectrophotometric, statistical. The river regulation effects on the riverine forests sensitivity to climate change altering an amplitude of seasonal variations in water levels and soil moisture. The main change in growth-climate relationships was documented is the revers of rainfall effect at the beginning of the growing season, i.e. negative rainfall effect on tree growth after river modifications were implemented. In the southern part of Kyiv, the heterozygote deficiency of Schizophyllum commune Fr: Fr at locality level (Fis = 0.390), high gene flow between localities (Nm = 7.12), and low level of genetic differentiation was found. The results indicate that Schizophyllum commune is mainly spread by spore masses and that the studied samples are part of the same population. We showed that mushrooms are a source of essential elements — Mg, Cu, Fe, Zn, Cr, Se, Ge, Mo, Mn. By species and ecological specificity, we identified the accumulation of trace elements in macromycetes species as a promising bioindicators of soil contamination with heavy metals. We showed that last 114 year 34% changes in the morphological parameters of Plantago lanceolata L. explained by climatic factors variation. We found correlations (r = 0.5–0.75) between the indices of the reflection spectra of Taraxacum officinale F.H. Wigg leaf and the content of Cr, Cu, Pb, Zn, Mn in them. The relationship between the spectral reflectance parameters of Quercus robur leaves and the area of crowns damage by insect were established.
