RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE CHEMICAL PROPERTIES AND TRACE ELEMENT COMPOSITION OF SOILS AND THE BIOECOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF PLANTS IN THE CONTEXT OF URBANIZATION
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study examines the impact of urbanization on the chemical properties and trace element composition (Cu, Zn, Pb) of soils at different site exposures in the Tashkent region. Element content in tree and shrub species was quantified, and its relationship with biological activity and adaptive capacity was assessed. Growth parameters (diameter, height) and reproductive strategies of the species were also analyzed. The results provide insights into plant–soil interactions in urban environments and offer valuable guidance for sustainable landscape planning and management.
