Abstract

The natural climatic and soil conditions of Uzbekistan are favorable in all respects for the growth and development of these unusual plants. At present, it is essential to study the bioecological characteristics of rare medicinal plants and to determine how they can be cultivated and grown in different regions of our country. Investigating the biological and ecological features of rare medicinal species and developing appropriate cultivation techniques for various territorial zones is of considerable scientific and practical importance. In this regard, the biological characteristics, growth process, and developmental stages of Physalis peruviana L. (physalis) were studied. The research focused on the plant’s morphological and functional traits, its patterns of growth and reproduction, and its ecological significance. The article discusses how Physalis grows, how it reproduces, and the role it plays in ecological systems. Special attention is given to the plant’s structural features and physiological functions, as well as its ability to adapt to different climatic conditions. The study also addresses its environmental impact and ecological interactions, highlighting the significance of Physalis peruviana L. as a promising medicinal and economically valuable crop under diverse environmental conditions.
