TAXONOMIC ANALYSIS OF FODDER PLANTS OF THE KARAKALPAK USTYURT
The article is devoted to the taxonomic analysis of fodder plants of the Karakalpak Ustyurt. The forage flora of this region
consists of no less than 497 species belonging to 244 genera and 54 families. The leading position in the spectrum of the Ustyurt
forage flora is occupied by more than 10 species of the families Amaranthaceae (80 species), Asteraceae (77), Poaceae (58),
Brassicaceae (55), Fabaceae (34), Boraginaceae (33), Apiaceae (16), Caryophyllaceae (14) and Polygonaceae (11). This spectrum
practically coincides with the leading families of the forage flora of neighboring Kyzylkum and this indicates a single root of
origin of these two huge floras for the Turan lowland. Representatives of the leading families combine 378 species or 73.1% of
the total forage flora of the study area.
