Information About Author:

On the basis of the study of ontogeny and ontomorphogeny characteristics of the shrubby liana Atragene sibirica L. possible ways of woody lianas transformation to herbage in evolution are exhibited. The obtained data confirm the conception of the two directions of lianas ways of transformation of woody plants to the herbage through the lianas life forms; both to the biomorphs with creepers and to the plants with orthotropic oblong rosellate bines.
