ONTOGENESIS OF <i>VERONICA INCANA </i>(SCROPHULARIACEAE) IN CENTRAL YAKUTIA
Ontomorphogenesis of Veronica incana L. was investigated in a natural steppe and forest communities, as well as in a culture in Central Yakutia. Depending on the environmental growing conditions, three types of V. incana biomorphs were formed: short-rhizomatous, long-rhizomatous and rachis-rhizomatous. The ontogenesis of individual was shown to be complete and complicated, with vegetative propagation in mature and old generative states and with formation of insignificantly rejuvenated ramets. Development of V. incana followed unobvious polycentric type. No vegetative propagation was recorded and monocentric biomorph was produced in culture.
