Abstract

Autecological studies on plant species are conducted to investigate about the relationships between a particular plant and other components of ecosystem. Ecological knowledge about range plant species are essential for rehabilitation, reclamation, and management of rangelands. This study was accomplished to provide information about ecological characteristics of the range plant species of SMIRNOVIA TURKESTANA in SAND DUNES OF KASHAN, in ESFAHAN PROVINCE. Some topographic, climatic, and edaphic aspects, as well as the boundaries of the ECOLOGICAL HABITATs of this species were delineated. Phenological stages and root system of the plant were studied. The names of other species accompanied with the species were listed. The results show that the ecological amplitude of SMIRNOVIA TURKESTANA in ESFAHAN PROVINCE is very limited. Average annual rainfall at its habitats is 80-130 mm. Tests of soil texture indicates that this range plant species grows in sandy soils. This plant mostly prefers sandy soils. A range of 7.85-8.5 was observed for soil pH. Vegetative growth of this plant starts in late February. Its flowering stage starts in early May; and the seeds ripen in June. Some root like organs of the plant grow and distribute horizontally at soil depth of 20 to 50 centimeters. With different distances, new plants regenerate from these roots. The root system keeps the particles of sandy soil together and protects it against wind erosion. This plant also regenerates through the seeds that reproduce. Wind storms, however, often endanger the establishment of seedlings. This plant species has an important role in sand dune fixation and constituting of suitable vegetation in DESERT ECOSYSTEMs.
