Abstract

Genetic polymorphism has been analyzed in Kochia prostrata populations growing on different soils with contrasting salt contents in eight variants of desert steppe plant communities. All the populations are characterized by a deficiency of heterozygotes (11.1–77.5%), with populations growing on different soil types showing significant differences in the level of observed heterozygosity. Significant genetic differentiation between two populations on dark-humus solonchaks indicates that soil conditions may have an effect not only on the level of diversity but also on the genetic structure of populations.
