Abstract

We have carried out a bioindication of the soil–plant system of North Dagestan using optical plant parameters based on ecological and physiological indicating features. The high soil salinity and manifestation of aridization features indicate an urgent need in soil bioindication. We have revealed indicator plants, the fluorescent response of which makes it possible to reveal and diagnose soil degradation features in a timely way.
