Adaptive Features of Vegetative Organs Juno hippolyti ( Vved . ) Kamelin and J . narbuti ( O . Fedtsch . ) Vved . ( Juno Tratt . ) in the Conditions of the Kyzylkum Desert

For the first time, the anatomical structure of the vegetative organs of the species J. hippolyti and J. narbuti was studied in the conditions of Kyzylkum (Uzbekistan, Province Bukhara) and revealed the diagnostic features of these species. A different combination of xeromorphic and mesomorphic features was determined, which ensures adaptation to habitat conditions. In J. narbuti xeromorphic features predominate, which indicates a more adaptable and wide distribution in the natural habitat of this species. In J. hippolyti—mesomorphic signs that show the rarity of the species in their natural habitat, compared to J. narbuti.


Introduction
The family of Iridaceae includes 75 -80 genera and about 1800 species common in the tropical and subtropical countries of the Globe.The genus Iris L. is the most polymorphic in the homonym family with more than 200 species [1].In the flora of Uzbekistan, this genus includes more than 30 species.Morphological signs of the inflorescence of representatives of the Iridaceae family of the flora of Uzbekistan are described.It was revealed that the genus Juno is characterized by a frontal inflorescence, whereas the species Iris, Gladiolus italicus and Moraea sisyrinchium are characterized by the breasts of the inflorescence [2].

Materials and Methods
The objects of the study are some species of the genus Iris (Juno): Juno hippolyti (Vved.)Kamelin-Red Book rare narrow local endemic species Kyzylkum status -1.A perennial, tuberous plant from the family Iridaceae [9].J. nаrbuti (O. Fedtsch.) Vved.-widespread species.A perennial, tuberous plant from the family Iridaceae.
The material was collected and fixed in the flowering phase in three copies in mid-April 2018 from the south-western desert station of Kyzylkum.The region is characterized by extreme dryness of air and soil, caused by a minimum amount of precipitation (80 -120 mm per year), high summer and low winter temperatures from max. +40˚C -45˚C to min −25˚C -30˚C accompanied by a strong wind [10] [11] [12].Studies were conducted in the conditions of Kyzylkum (Bukhara region, Kuljuktau).Simultaneously with the morphological description, the vegetative organs of plants (leaf, leaf's vagina, stem) were fixed in 70˚ ethanol for anatomical study.The leaves epidermis was studied on the paradermal and transverse sections.The transverse sections of the leaf are made through the middle, and the vagina of the leaf and stem is the base.Each tissue was described, epidermis according to S.F.Zakharevich [13].The preparations were stained with methylene blue followed by sealing with glycerin-gelatin [14].
Photomicrographs are made with a computer micro photoset with a digital camera Samsung ES70 and microscope of Motic B1-220A-3.The measurements were performed depending on the organ, tissues and cells in a 30 -90 short repetition by an ocular-micrometer with the subsequent transfer into microns.Statistical processing of quantitative data was carried out according to generally accepted criteria [15] using a personal computer (MS-Excel program).

Conclusion
Thus, based on the results obtained for a comparative study of the anatomical structure of the vegetative organs of J. hippolyti and J. narbuti species of the genus Juno and a different combination of xeromorphic and mesomorphic features is determined, which provides adaptation to habitat which is achieved by accumulation of moisture in leaf tissues, specializing not only as protective, but also as water-preserving tissues that reduce evaporation.The primary cortex of the stem is preserved until the end of vegetation, which is associated with an earlier completion of the life cycle.In J. narbuti dominated xeromorphic signs that indicate more fitness and widespread in the natural habitat of this species.In J. hippolyti-mesomorphic signs that show the rarity of the species in their natural habitat, compared to J. narbuti.
