title: The effect of moisture deficiency on the photosynthesis of evergreen shrubs of the genus &lt;i&gt;Cotoneaster&lt;/i&gt; L
abstract: The paper presents data on the features of the water regime (water deficit, water-retaining forces, and total hydration of leaf tissues) in four evergreen species of the genus Cotoneaster , as well as the effect of the growing water stress on the course of primary photosynthesis processes. It was found that during the periods of maximum impact of dry factors of the summer season on the Southern Coast of the Crimea, the species Cotoneaster salicifolius and Cotoneaster graucophyllus var. serotinus
