The growing and branching model of ephemera of central Asia
Abstract: It has been described a model of branching and growing of 22 species of ephemers from 4 families: Asteraceae, Brassicaceae, Chenopodiaceae, Fabaceae of Kyzylkum desert. It has been distinguished 5 types of shoots growing: monopodial with apical and lateral-apical dominance, hemisympodial, sympodial and pseudo dichotomy in generative period of ontogenesis. It has been given a range of variety signs by 8 morphological indexes. The description was confirmed by 19 figures — schemes. It has been noted a predominance basitonic branching.
Keywords: growing model, branching, generative period, ephemer, Kyzylkum.
Introduction
The shoot system structure is an important characters hereditary fixed feature of biomorphs, reflecting of meristem the activity in the growing. F. Halle (1975) has invented the term and defined the porpoise of "architectural model" as accounting of structure formation, i. e. growing strategy, fixed by the genetic code. "Architectural model" — is not a synonym of life forms, but one of its essential indexes, visually reflecting the formation process.
Material and methods
At determination of the growing and branching models, we proceeded from the definition of I. G. Serebryakov (1964), A. E. Vasi-lyev et al. (1988) and M. V. Markov (1989) for herbaceous plants. On the basis of growing, branching and growing analysis among ephemera, it has been distinguished 5 architectural models dramatically differ in growing form and habitus.

Conclusion
Thus, the types of growing are varied in ephemera: from monopodial to pseudo-dichotomous. Basitonic branching (72% of the
species) is dominant. However, this sign may vary: from monopodial under stress conditions from sympodial at favorable conditions, as well as plant height varies widely, for example in Strigozella grandiflora from 8 to 80 cm. Numbers of internodes and their length vary respectively. The most common branching — to the III orders. In general, for the ephemeres it is typical lability of all growing processes, including metric readings of the shoots, internodes and quantitative: number of internodes, the branching order. A wide range of variability of signs I. I. Schmalhausen (1968) refers to the accommodation of growing and sees it as one of the manifestations of the evolutionary process, which increases the adaptive level of biomorphs.
