title: RESULTS OF EXPEDITIONS CARRIED OUT BY KRYMSK EXPERIMENT BREEDING STATION OF VIR TO COLLECT WILD AND RUN-WILD FRUIT AND BERRY PLANTS IN SOUTHERN REGIONS OF RUSSIA
abstract: Since the beginning of the 2000s, the ecological and climatic situation in southern regions of Russia has deteriorated sig­nificantly due to the increased anthropogenic impact. In particular, the Republic of Crimea, especially its steppe zone, has been experiencing a real ecological disaster since 2016 because of water deficiency due to the drying up of the North-Crimean Canal after it has been blocked by Ukraine. All this makes it urgent to search for and collect wild and run-wild plant species
